Failure Analysis Services
Priority Labs provides independent failure analysis services to identify failure mechanisms, root causes, and contributing factors in electronic, semiconductor, and advanced technology products.
Objective analysis. Defensible conclusions.
What Is Failure Analysis?
Failure analysis is the systematic investigation of why a product, component, or system did not perform as intended. This process combines inspection, testing, and analytical techniques to determine the underlying cause of failure.
Our analyses are conducted independently and documented clearly to support engineering decisions, quality improvements, and legal or insurance matters.
