Failure Analysis
-
Daniel J. D. Sullivan
and Eric J. Carleton
About this book
The book presents a unique view of failure analysis of high technology devices. It describes capabilities and limitations of many analytical techniques and testing paths and decisions best followed in example failure analysis studies.
- Covers methods and analytical techniques used to find root cause for failures in high technology devices.
- Examples from real experiences in failure analysis laboratories.
- Descriptions of how to perform the wok with details, not just theory.
