Individual integrated circuits are normally sample tested for Human Body Model, Machine Model, and charge coupled device models. In any pin and out any other pin. So 61000-4-2 can certainly be used to test an IC. 4 kV is a common design goal for HBM.

This has inspired me to write an article about it. This month's Technical Tidbit (link is the picture of a chip and ESD simulator at the bottom of the page at http://emcesd.com ) deals with system level test standards being applied to internal devices or modules. If you design or test IC chips or modules that are included in a larger system design, this is a must read article for you. Abstract: A trend in component testing has been developing in recent years. Vendors of system components are being required by their customers, equipment manufacturers, to apply inappropriate system level tests to system components such as chips or modules. One such case of misapplication of a system test to IC chips is explored and implications discussed. Doug -- ___ _ Doug Smith \ / ) P.O.
