Systems Response to Electrostatic Discharge: Part 2

Through the referenced research efforts, it has been recognized that the spectral bandwidth of the ESD event, considered as a continuum, is highly dependent on the electrostatic initialization amplitudes that are evident immediately prior to the displacement of the stored energy through the ESD event.

System-product Response to Electrostatic Discharge Events

The myth: A system-product that successfully complies with the criteria of ESD (IEC-based) Standards...

ESD Standards: An Annual Progress Report

Industry standards play a major role in providing meaningful metrics and common procedures that allow various manufacturers, customers and suppliers to communicate from facility to facility around the world. Standards are increasingly important in our global economy. In manufacturing, uniform quality requirements and testing procedures are necessary to make sure that all involved parties are speaking the same language.

Systems Response to Electrostatic Discharge: Part 1

This paper discusses the application of ESP impulse waveform research results toward understanding the ESD amplitude-waveform dependency of susceptibility responses from systems products and outlines the conceptual aspects of the test methodology required for thorough product evaluation.
