ESD AUDIT

ESD CONSULTATION & AUDIT READYNESS SCOPE

ESD CONSULATION

ESD Consultation provides expert guidance on identifying, preventing, and mitigating electrostatic discharge (ESD) risks. It includes workplace assessments, ESD control measures, compliance with industry standards, and employee training to protect sensitive electronics and ensure a safe, static-free environment.

ESD FLOOR QUALIFICATION

 ESD Floor Qualification ensures flooring meets industry standards for electrostatic discharge (ESD) control. It involves testing surface resistance, charge decay, and electrostatic properties to protect sensitive equipment and maintain safety in industries like electronics manufacturing, cleanrooms, and healthcare. 

ESD S20.20 FACILITY CERTIFICATION

ESD S20.20 Facility Certification ensures that a facility complies with ANSI/ESD S20.20 standards for electrostatic discharge (ESD) control. It involves evaluating ESD protection measures, grounding systems, and personnel training to safeguard sensitive electronics and maintain industry compliance. 

ESD GAP ANALYSIS

ESD Gap Analysis assesses a facility’s current electrostatic discharge (ESD) controls against industry standards like ANSI/ESD S20.20. It identifies weaknesses, recommends improvements, and helps organizations achieve compliance, ensuring better protection for sensitive electronics and a safer work environment.

ESD PRODUCT QUALIFICATION

ESD Product Qualification verifies that a product meets electrostatic discharge (ESD) control standards. It involves testing for resistance, charge decay, and durability to ensure compliance with industry regulations, preventing ESD damage and ensuring reliability in sensitive electronic environments.

ESD FAILURE ANALYSIS

ESD Failure Analysis identifies and investigates electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage in electronic components. It involves testing, microscopy, and diagnostics to determine failure causes, prevent recurrence, and improve ESD protection measures, ensuring product reliability and compliance with industry standards.

ESD Gap Analysis & Compliance Certification Services?

ESD COMPLIANCE AUDIT

An ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) compliance audit is an assessment process aimed at ensuring that a company’s practices and facilities are aligned with established standards and regulations for managing electrostatic discharge. These audits are crucial in industries where sensitive electronic components are manufactured or handled, as ESD can damage electronic components, leading to failures or reduced performance.

ESD Gap Analysis

An ESD gap analysis is a process used to identify differences or “gaps” between an organization’s current Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) control practices and the established ESD standards or best practices.  Conducting an ESD gap analysis helps organizations maintain robust ESD control systems, ensuring that sensitive electronic components are protected and compliance with industry standards is achieved.

STATIC RISK ASSESSMENT AS PER INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS

Technology

NPI

Most companies have formal NPI (New Product Introduction) procedures to verify manufacturing is well prepared for new product designs. However, ESD is seldom included in the NPI process and this has led to many manufacturing crises. Without the “red flag” for Class 0 devices, ESD manufacturing failure rates have been known to approach 100% and caused a virtual shutdown of production.

ESD Analysis

Advanced Technical Assessment/Audit:

Our advanced technical assessment and audit, combined with our EPA Program, offer the most comprehensive roadmap for improvement available today. We provide findings reports, photographs of findings, detailed customized recommendations, and the assignment of corrective action priorities.

Our assessments identify gaps relative to current best practices and the Customer's chosen standards, such as Internal Requirements, S20.20, or EIA-625.

Assessment

S20.20 Pre-Assessment Audit

This audit may be done solely for gap identification to S20.20 and expert recommendations for achieving certification on the first try. It may also be combined with our technical assessment for a complete review.

A complete analysis of the Administrative and Technical Elements of S20.20 will be conducted. Gaps will be identified and expert recommendations provided.

Root Cause

Root Cause Analysis

We pioneered many aspects of ESD event detection and have unmatched experience with these techniques. We can analyze advanced production lines and pinpoint the root causes of failures effectively.

FAILURE ANALYSIS

The damage from a 1 kV stressing voltage is extreme. CBE discharge current can reach 9 amps, far exceeding CDM levels. These stresses exceed IC design tolerances and are often misdiagnosed in FA labs.

ESD Best Practices

Many companies are aware of ESD hazards but not of best practices, especially for ultra-sensitive Class 0 devices. These devices are already present in most factories and will be standard soon.

Due to rapid tech advances, standards are struggling to keep up. ANSI/ESD S20.20 is a strong foundation, but for best practices, companies must tailor it to their specific needs and environments.
