Structure Function Explorer

Turn cooling transients into a layer-by-layer picture of the heat path.

Turns measured transients into cumulative and differential structure functions, and compares them across devices and cycle counts.

Features

Analysis built around the structure function

01Structure functions

Cumulative and differential structure functions computed from Zth(t) by network identification.

02Comparison

Overlay, difference and reference-aligned views across devices, fixtures and cycle counts.

03Layer identification

Annotate die, die attach, substrate and TIM regions and track each layer’s Rth.

04Model export

Foster and Cauer RC networks exported to SPICE netlists and CSV.

05Data import

Opens Analysis Suite projects directly, plus CSV and HDF5 transients.

06Batch processing

Evaluate a full measurement series with one saved analysis recipe.
