Hi, 1. The protection is for in use (to prevent ESD damage) 2. It is device that operate on 3v-battery, so its not connecting to earth. My question what is the prefer PCB layout of maximum ESD protection. Best regards, Erez

Hi Stephen, Can you pl suggest what exactly needed for the process? There is no any standard method to ensure for the ESD damage. ESDS:2020 is talking about only for persoanl and equipement grounding mechanism, in the process no insulator should be

Properly grounding employees and work surfaces is the single most effective method of reducing esd damage to parts. Tell us about your ESD control program and how well it conforms to ANSI/ESD S20.20-1999, Electrostatic Discharge Control Program Stan

What does failure analysis of the BGA indicate? Is this: * ESD damage * Open circuits * Shorting What's the problem?

IPC-A-610D Sections 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 and Table 3.1 specifically mention compressed air as a source of ESD damage

Lower RH = more static build-up on production floor = greater chance of ESD damage to product. Primarily, I think your SMT print job can be affected by RH which could cause defects like the ones you mention. Look at ANSI/ESD S20.20 for more info an

250C peak temp seems very high for components. Thermal damage, which is latent like ESD damage, can occur on components at temps as low as 235C. Looking at component specs to see what the max temps are is a good idea I think when doing Pb Free trials

We have plenty of people with longer hair. This has never been an issue and there is no evidence it ever has been. Like I said, as long as your facility is following proper ESD protection protocol, which it appears you are, why the fuss? As long a

Hi Russ, We had a painted/waxed floor in one factory & a ESD tiled floor in the other. Both passed every audit (including telecoms & Japanese OEM's)that tested ESD etc. Neither factory had issues with ESD damage to components either. The tiled f

If the operator has zero charge and the board has a 10kv charge, when the operator pulls the shorting strip from the edge connector after the coating has cured, there is a large potential for ESD induced damage.
