Hi Adam (in Atlanta!)

Answers embedded:

AA> Would you be able to share a bit more context?
Chas Sure!

AA Are you interested in a basic distribution of discharge event vs. voltage 
(lots of parameters which affect this)?
Chas: Yes that is precisely what I am looking for. I realize that this is 
highly dependent on location so this may be a difficult
ask.  I recall that there was a push to change the #of zaps in an ESD spec 
depending on the %likelihood of occurrence. So
for example, zaps at  1kV would be given greater weight (in # of zaps) than 
15kV. For those who remember him,  TJ Ritenour
was leading the charge.  Ring any bells?

AA  Catastrophic or latent failures or both?
Chas:  Surely that depends on the voltage level and test location? No just the 
% likelihood of a zap.

AA Particular classes of devices/systems/environments?
Chas:: Good Q. I am particularly interested in ITE equipment.

AA Detectable by a human or down at the threshold of laser diodes and a few 
other types of devices?
Chas: Yes absolutely. The lower voltages are more likely to occur.

Thanks for your interest Adam (in Atlanta ☺)


Thanks

Hi, Charles,

Would you be able to share a bit more context?  Are you interested in a basic 
distribution of discharge event vs. voltage (lots of parameters which affect 
this)?  Catastrophic or latent failures or both?  Particular classes of 
devices/systems/environments?  Detectable by a human or down at the threshold 
of laser diodes and a few other types of devices?

Depending on what is of most interest, there might be different information 
sources (experts like Dr. Pommerenke, Doug Smith and others, the EOS/ESD 
Association, some journal papers and masters/PhD theses, etc.).


Interested to know more.


Cheers,
Adam in Atlanta

Hello,

I have been (fruitlessly) hunting down any reference to the above
subject.

Does anyone know of such a reference?
