When you are designing products for compliance with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards, testing circuits for immunity to electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a must. Standards such as IEC 61000 ...
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 ...
The state-of-the-art in robustness design and analysis for ESD (electrostatic discharge) always lags our ability to characterize and qualify a device or system. The ESD Association, IEC, JEDEC, and ...
The NSG 438 electrostatic discharge (ESD) simulator system has an elevated discharge voltage of 30 kV, exceeding industry ESD test standards requiring 25-kV pulse voltages. The basic model includes a ...
•ESD protectors with low dynamic resistance won’t necessarily protect circuits. •Most damage is caused within the first nanosecond of an ESD event. •The ESD protector should set as close as possible ...
All companies striving to survive and grow in today’s worldwide electronics industry recognize the value of performing design, development, and troubleshooting tests. These tests should be done early ...
