I've been following this thread about ESD testing and the PPS debate. I would like to inject my point of view on the subject. So far most of what I have read addresses the need for speed. This is great for the test lab/house; to be able to slam through the process in a quest to get it done

Cortland, If you were responding to my post re signals that don't leave the silicon, note that I pointed out that there is, at least in some cases, an output of the internal PLL which is not the advertised processor speed, but probably twice that, which is *only* used to generate the processor

Dear Dan, I think the MRA between EU and Canada only includes the 15 EU countries, and not the EFTA countries like Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. That is why you do not find any CABs from these EFTA countries. Anyway, Norway will accept certificates from a Canadian CAB which
