Abstract:
There are several common misunderstandings and controversies that can have significant impact on costs, quality and reliability of ESD programs. These misunderstandings or "myths" result in costly unnecessary expenditures and/or a compromise of the program integrity. These same myths are often cited by skeptics who do not fully understand the physics involved. Consequently, it is important to identify and dispel these myths.
Latency is a significant reliability consideration that is surrounded with controversy. Some experts will argue that latency is virtually non-existent while others claim that it is the dominant failure mode. Join us for this highly interactive discussion and learn about Latency as well as common myths such as:
Myth: ANSI/ESD S20.20 Is Sufficient For Class 0 Technologies
Myth: HBM Failures Dominate ESD Failures
Myth: Circuit Boards are Always Less Sensitive to ESD than Devices
Myth: Airflow Causes Charging
Myth: Humidity Control is Essential for ESD
Myth: Fieldmeters Make Accurate Measurements on Machines
Myth: Latency Failures Comprise 90% of ESD Failures
