Failure Analysis & Reliability

Failure Analysis and Reliability Engineering functions operate according to scientific methods. The team leading these functions comes from material science and other leading industry technical backgrounds. In-house capabilities include Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX), also referred to as EDS or EDAX, is an X-ray technique used to identify the elemental composition of materials. Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Destructive Physical Analysis, and Applications of Scanning Acoustic Microscopy (C-SAM).

Reliability Engineering in-house testing capabilities:

HTOL, HASS, HALT, FITs, MTBF, MTTF Estimators, AEC-Q-200, Shock (mechanical), and Vibration.

Providing MIL screening including 100% burn-in and other leading industry testing.

• HTOL – High Temperature Operating Life
• HASS – Highly Accelerated Stress Screen
• HALT – Highly Accelerated Life Test
• FITs – Kristine still researching (to provide today)
• MTBF Estimators – Mean Time Between Failures
