Vyrian, a leading provider of semiconductor shortage solutions, has announced that its engineering laboratory has achieved ISO 17025 accreditation, the international standard for testing and calibration laboratories. This certification positions Vyrian to deliver faster, more reliable counterfeit detection and quality verification for customers sourcing electronic components outside of authorized distribution channels.

Why it matters

As supply chain disruptions continue to drive procurement teams toward gray market sources for semiconductors and other electronic components, the risk of counterfeit parts entering mission-critical applications has never been higher. Vyrian's newly accredited laboratory addresses this challenge with rigorous, standardized testing protocols designed to identify suspect components before they reach production.

The details

Vyrian's engineering laboratory employs a multi-layered approach to counterfeit detection, utilizing state-of-the-art equipment including high-resolution X-ray imaging, chemical and mechanical decapsulation, XRF analysis for material composition verification, and laser metrology for dimensional inspection. These capabilities are deployed in accordance with AS6171 test flows, the aerospace industry standard for suspect counterfeit detection. Vyrian can also provide advanced qualification testing including burn-in, Highly Accelerated Stress Testing (HAST), Temperature-Humidity Bias (THB), and at-speed semiconductor testing for customers with the most demanding reliability requirements.

  • Vyrian announced its ISO 17025 accreditation on February 3, 2026.
