High temperatures can damage electronic components. This lesson analyzes the heat transfer in the chip assembly shown:

In this lesson, you learn the following:
- Creating a steady state thermal study
- Assigning material properties
- Defining a temperature-dependent material property
- Defining thermal loads and boundary conditions
- Viewing and probing temperature results
- Generating an iso plot of temperature
- Creating a transient thermal study
- Using drag and drop to define material properties and thermal loads
- Defining a time-dependent thermal load by importing a predefined time curve
- Graphing thermal results versus time
