Failure analysis helps you determine the root cause of an electronic component failure, and provides an opportunity to improve reliability, extrapolate life expectancy, and increase the performance of your product.
It requires specialized knowledge and expertise to evaluate the electronic elements of your product – including integrated circuits (ICs), printed circuit boards (PCBs), passive surface mount devices, 材料, and assemblies – for the root causes of failure. Whether your components are cutting-edge marvels of engineering or trusted industry workhorses, im体育APP’s experts can provide detailed information about their performance and any limitations relevant to their intended end-use application.
When is failure analysis necessary for electronics?
Anytime a component or material does not perform as expected, failure analysis is crucial to understand why. Electronic device failures are often uncovered during testing, but if problems are discovered with a device that is already on the market, failure analysis can offer insight into how to address the problem to protect your brand and prevent future failures. The information gained during the failure analysis process empowers you to take action to improve your product.
