ESD from A to Z (Electrical Engineering)

This reference aims to provide managers and technicians with the tools they need to develop and implement effective static control programmes. This edition includes new chapters on: basic physics - including the concept of ESD and the many sources of ESD; the fundamentals of ESD control - with insight into the major ESD damage nodels; and industry standards - featuring a review of the proliferating non-government documents on ESD control. The text aims to help the reader to integrate proven and conceptual tools into an overall approach to ESD control.
