With today's focus on higher speeds and wider bandwidths, it often is helpful to revisit basic yet critical design considerations. As a refresher topic on grounding techniques, we present this update ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is critical at advanced nodes to safeguard designs against effects intensified by shrinking transistor dimensions and oxide layer thicknesses. On the other ...

For applications requiring ESD grounding, S4503-CON is a closed-cell synthetic-rubber sponge with 500-kW /sq max surface resistivity. It has a compression force deflection of 3 to 7 psi. Sheets are ...

Mueller Electric Company, Inc. has announced the offering of static and electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding cables, designed to protect workers and associated equipment from the potential harmful ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is caused by the discharge of an excess or deficiency of electrons on one surface with respect to another surface or to ground. When a static charge is present on an ...
