ESD Association Standard Practice for Electrostatic Discharge Sensitivity Testing – Reporting ESD Withstand Levels on Datasheets
This document is intended to guide device manufacturers in developing datasheets and to help device customers in understanding datasheet entries. Standardized ESD stress test methods have been developed to evaluate the relative sensitivity of devices. Although these methods are available and the tests are usually performed during device qualification, the test results are not always provided by the supplier. This is especially true for charged device model (CDM) levels. The document provides a standardized template that includes a minimum information set and gives guidelines for expanded individual pin information when needed. The document should improve the availability and usefulness of reported ESD data.
