This course contain a standardized test method for evaluating the Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) sensitivity of microcircuits using the Machine Model (MM). Specifically, the source presents a combination of two publications, IEC/PAS 62180 and the revision of the EIA/JESD22-A115-A standard, both addressing ESD sensitivity testing. The content establishes a standard procedure for testing and classifying electronic circuits according to their susceptibility to damage from electrostatic discharge. Furthermore, the documents detail the necessary apparatus, the specifics of the test method A115-A, and the classification criteria used to categorize components based on their failure threshold voltage.
Electrostatic Discharge Sensitivity Testing Machine Model Standard Course is based on textbook learning material by Academy Europe.
Study Hard AND Study Smart!
Dear Students,
The textbook courses by Academy Europe are targeted at providing the students with the most important aspects of the theoretical and methodical materials. In addition, the textbook courses will also focus on the philosophical background for the development and use of the theoretical background and are thus to be understood as partly complementary to the material of the course notes. It is assumed and strongly suggested that the students study and become familiar with the course notes.
