ESD & Latch-Up

 

ESD Test 

The purpose of Electro Static Discharge (ESD) testing of your components or modules is to verify their robustness against ESD events.  

ESD tests are an important item in the qualification procedure of new components or modules. We have automatic test equipment that supports the most common ESD test pulse models. 

Highlights

  • MIL - JEDEC - ESDA - IEC standards
  • IC level Human Body Model
  • IC level Charged Device Model
  • In house design and manufacturing of ESD Interfaces 
  • Test strategy advise
  • System level IEC 61000 HBM

Our Thermo Mk.2 systems can automatically test the ESD performance of small to high pin count devices (upto 512 channels).

The automotive industry has defined specific test modes. MASER Engineering has built and qualified this specific test setup for all AEC-Q100 device qualification tests.

The IEC 61000 ESD test capability is focusing at conductive or field induced ESD pulses on modules and systems. In a dedicated environment the TESEQ NSG-438 system can inject HBM pulses up to 30kV.

Latch-up Test

The purpose of Latch-up testing on your components is to verify their robustness against overvoltage/ overcurrent events during their operation. 

Highlights

  • Static Latch-Up test
  • Dynamic Latch-Up test
  • In house design and manufacturing of Latch-up Interfaces
