Analytical services

/ In Swedish: Analysservice  /

  • Fast and effective failure analysis of electronic systems, active and passive components.
  • Identification of the root cause of the problem. 
  • Recommendations for action and complyment actions suggested in the final report. 

We have access to top modern analytical instruments and are supported by academic experts at The Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and at Angstoms Laboratory (Uppsala University).

  • SEM and TEM evaluations of microstructures, analysis of defects and material composition. 
  • Debugging of new IC designs. 
  • FIB /focused ion beam/ Creation of new MIM components without the need of photolithographic masks. 
  • FIB cross sectioning of structures with submicron precision.
