| Failure Analysis of Electronics/Elec Components |
 |
| The SwRI Component-Analysis Group specializes in failure analysis of electronic and electrical components. Included in the Group's experience are (1) passive components (e.g., resistors, capacitors, inductors, transformers, switches, etc.), (2) electromagnetic devices (e.g., relays, motors, etc.), (3) miscellaneous devices (e.g., transducers, sensors, fuses, lamps, etc.), (4) discrete semiconductor devices (e.g., transistors, diodes, optoelectronic devices, silicon controlled rectifiers, etc.), and (5) low-density integrated circuits (e.g., operational amplifiers, simple logic blocks, voltage regulators, etc.).
Laboratory equipment supports key failure-analysis operations including photography, optical microscopy, x-radiography, package opening, scanning-electron microscopy, elemental analysis by energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, cross sectioning (both mounted and unmounted), microprobing, wet-chemical and plasma etching, hermeticity testing, and particle-impact-noise detection. |

Fuel Systems and Contamination Research
|
 |
| Fuel Thermal Testing |
 |
| Because fuel is composed of organic compounds (petroleum)is can break down or otherwise degrade when it is heated. We can run tests to determine the tendency of any particular fuel to break down when it is heated. |
