[PSES] A Collection of ESD measurements

[Doug Smith]

Hi Everyone, I just posted my Technical Tidbit for June 2013, "A Collection of ESD Measurements." This is the fourth time since starting my website, http://emcesd.com , in June of 1999 that I have posted an article written by a guest contributor. This time the guest contributor is Geoff Weil. Geoff is an excellent designer especially of analog circuits and especially if they contain high voltage. He designed the well known KeyTek Mini-Zap™ ESD simulator years ago as well as the KeyTek ZapMaster™ and several Electrical Fast Transient generators. He is currently working on voltage-boosted alpha source ionizers and high voltage pulse generators. Abstract: A collection of measurements by guest contributor, Geoff Weil, is presented that shows characteristics of several different types of ESD including Human Metal Model, bare finger tip (Human Body Model), Charged Device Model, and Furniture discharges. By collecting these measurements all in one document, comparison between the different types of ESD are easy to make. The article is located at: http://www.emcesd.com/tt2013/tt060213.htm and contains a link to Geoff's paper in pdf format. The I have added information in the first few screens from the top of the home page of http://emcesd.com including some recent non-technical exploits. There are also pictures of Boulder City, NV there. Doug -- -------------------------------------------------------------- ___ _ Doug Smith \ / ) P.O.
