ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)
Consulting and engineering services to protect PCBs and systems from ESD, as well as assessments for labs and manufacturing processes.
ESD in Electronics
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a significant concern in the electronics industry due to its potential to damage sensitive components and systems.
There are two main types of ESD-related failures:
System Failures
Damage to components or systems that is detectable and repairable during operation.Latent Failures
Damage that is not immediately detectable, which may shorten product lifecycles or degrade performance. Latent failures often surface at a later stage, resulting in significant losses due to recalls, compensation, or redesign.
The industry invests heavily in designing ESD-protected products and creating ESD-safe production environments to minimize these risks.
At EMC-Unit, we have expertise in ESD protection and utilize advanced tools to provide recommendations for system design and safe manufacturing environments.
OUR SERVICES
Consulting and Engineering for PCB and System Design
Designing protection to comply with relevant industry standards (e.g., automotive, military, civilian). This includes filter design, component selection, layout specifications, and simulations.
ESD Control Plans
Developing comprehensive ESD control plans tailored to client requirements for labs and production areas. Plans ensure safe environments for sensitive equipment and include implementation, supervision, and monitoring aspects.
Fault Detection and Resolution
Detecting and resolving ESD issues in electronic systems and PCBs. Effective fault detection requires specialized expertise and advanced tools to identify root causes and implement precise solutions.
Environmental Monitoring
Conducting surveys to monitor and ensure the ESD safety of manufacturing environments, protecting component and system reliability during assembly or production stages.
