                    example of thermal modeling for a SIP. The model should capture as many details as
                    needed so that any factor that will significantly impact on the SIP thermal performance
                    won’t be skipped. Figure 3.11 shows an example of a temperature contour predicted by
                    the thermal simulation. Based on the hot spots predicted by the numerical model, SIP
                    design can be efficiently optimized. Figure 3.12 shows a typical procedure to optimize
                    SIP designs.
