ZEISS Microscopy in partnership with MCS Group are organising a webinar on “How to Target and Investigate Condition within Advanced Electronic Packages” by Stewart McCracken of MCS Group on Tuesday 26th September 2023 at 12:00 – 13:00 (UK (BST) time)

The complexity of current electronics-based systems, make identifying the source of a system malfunction a real challenge. A correlative workflow for physical analysis is particularly effective, find out why in our upcoming webinar. Our speakers will share their experience and tips for troubleshooting electronics packages.

Mr. Stewart McCraken (MCS Group) will discuss what it takes to identify and target specific features of components within its packaging. He will also share the details of a forensic analysis case study, highlighting how information contained in the material microstructure can be used for failure diagnosis.

Join us on 26th September 2023 for an informative session and Q&A. Register today to attend or to receive the webinar recording by email.
