Abstract :
New developments in electronic packaging, higher density, new materials, the use of three dimensional chip stacks, packaging for photonics and the proliferation of so many different package types, pose serious challenges to the ability to locate and discover the root cause of failures within those packages. This paper highlights those challenges, identifies the tools currently being used and the new developments needed to enable the challenges to be met.
