Semiconductor failure analysis can be complex and time consuming. If you are seeking assistance in this area, our experts have extensive experience in all of the common failure analysis techniques - non-destructive or destructive. The key steps are to isolate the subsystem or component that is responsible for the failure and to then verify that the suspected component has failed by performing electrical testing relative to its specifications.

There are numerous techniques that can be used to assist in this process. The process will often start with external cleaning, move to opening the package, perform decapsulation, and perform a visual inspection prior to going any farther. Once the components are exposed there are other advanced techniques which might include optical microscopy (low or high power), particle impact noise detection (PIND), energy-dispersive x-ray analysis, or x-ray radiography. Other techniques might include scanning acoustic microscopy, hermeticity testing, residual gas analysis, or a vacuum bake.
