DIRECTORY OF
INDEPENDENT FA PROVIDERS
Rose Ring, Globalfoundries
Electronic companies of all types and sizes require failure analysis (FA) services. Our goal is to supply a resource of FA
service providers for your reference files. The directory lists independent providers and their contact information,
expertise, and types of technical services offered.
