Testing for immunity to electrostatic discharge (ESD), from cell phones to computers, is usually done with the IEC 61000-4-2 standard. 1 But IEC61000-4-2 is purely a systems-level test spec, not a ...

We’ve all experienced the effect of electrostatic discharge at some point in our lives, the most common case being a tingling sensation one feels after touching a door knob or any metal surface. When ...

This ESD model is one of the first used and attempts to model a human that has accumulated static charge and dissipates it onto the device under test. The setup for this test is a 100pF capacitor is ...

With the pervasiveness of power management techniques like clock gating and power gating, transient power is on the rise, accompanied by the requirement to closely examine a system for such phenomenon ...

JEDEC Solid State Technology Association and the ESD Association today announced the publication of ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001-2011 for Electrostatic Discharge Sensitivity (ESD) Testing - Human Body Model ...

The effect of low ESD immunity on a new product introduction can be both obvious and subtle. Manufacturing and test facilities adhere to ANSI standards for ESD protection and handling of chips based ...

Standards for specifying a chip’s ability to withstand electrostatic discharge (ESD) are changing – in some cases, getting tougher, and in others, easing up. ESD protection has been on a path from a ...
