Re: Component ESD Immunity Testing

I have been asked on several occasions to test some particular IC on the card, whenever there have been instances of IC failures during product manufacturing/testing. Most ICs are built to withstand an ESD event of 2 kV, and I have found this to be true in my tests. If IC happens to be OK then

Re: Component ESD Immunity Testing

We have an engineer who did ESD testing once on the pins of ICs buried in a power supply assembly. The unit passed, and he thought it was a great way to show product robustness. However, when I asked him if he would redesign power supplies that failed his special test, he replied he wouldn't.
