Abstract:
Circuit device inspection system using temperature gradients. In some embodiments, a system may include an infrared camera, first and second temperature sources, controller circuitry to cause the infrared camera to capture an infrared image of a region of a circuit device and to cause the first and second temperature sources to generate first and second temperature outputs to be applied to first and second locations on the circuit device, and processing circuitry to generate temperature gradient data. The temperature gradient data may be indicative of discontinuities in traces in the circuit device.
