The method is demonstrated for a ball grid array BGA package, a commonly used modern electronic package.Findings Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that the dynamic thermal behavior of a BGA package can be accurately described by a generated dynamic compact model in terms of predicted junction temperature response and heat flux of the desired locations of the package.Originalityvalue This model is capable of calculating the temperatures and heat fluxes at desired locations which can help the designer to perform the thermal analysis much faster and easier with the required accuracy.
