Course content

1 section7 lectures34m total length
  • Introduction to ESD7:02

    This introduction defines electrostatic discharge and static electricity, explains causes such as friction, separation, and induction, and emphasizes esd handling and a personal esd control program to protect sensitive components.

  • Human Perceptions of ESD4:03

    Explain how human perception of electrostatic discharge depends on voltage and current, and how humidity reduces static generation, lowering voltages from tens of thousands to a few thousand.

  • Insulative and Conductive Materials3:03

    Learn how conductive materials prevent fast current transfer and static damage by using ESD safe boxes, racks, tweezers, and copper spray-coated plastics, while identifying insulative plastics.

  • ESD Effects on Products3:58

    The lecture explains how miniaturized components become vulnerable to ESD, causing catastrophic gold-wire failures, intermittent issues, or latent failures when operators treat every component as ESD sensitive.

  • Grounding and Shielding10:47

    Discover grounding and shielding practices to prevent ESD in production, including dissipative mats, one megaohm resistors, personal grounding, shielding bags, and Faraday cages.

  • Neutralisation2:00

    Learn neutralisation techniques for static charges by applying static-free solutions to containers, using air ionizers near handling areas, and maintaining grounding as essential.

  • Summary3:32

Requirements

  • If handled incorrectly, ESD can damage sensitive components on your board, delete data or even cause a fire if you're working in a flammable environment. To protect against potential damage or disaster, it's essential you establish safe ESD control procedures in the workplace.
  • Based around IPC DVD-54C ESD Control guidelines, this introductory course covers all the basics of ESD components, control, testing, safe handling and storage.

Description

As the engineering industry starts to scale towards greater complexity, many engineers face the problem of meeting the requirements to cater to both private and government agencies. The ESD Awareness and Control Training course will equip engineers and technicians to focus primarily on problems, engineering design and corrective measures to minimize or eliminate electrostatic discharge.  This course will focus on delivering different levels of perception, allowing engineers to identify and eliminate the threat from non-conductive materials and activities which create static electricity and ESD. Engineers attending the course will be able to benefit through having a greater understanding of topics such as ESD components and control, grounding and testing, ESD handling and transportation.


If handled incorrectly, ESD can damage sensitive components on your board, delete data or even cause a fire if you're working in a flammable environment. To protect against potential damage or disaster, it's essential you establish safe ESD control procedures in the workplace.


Based around IPC DVD-54C ESD Control guidelines, this introductory course covers all the basics of ESD components, control, testing, safe handling and storage.


You will get to learn Introduction to static electricity and ESD, Levels of perception and creating ESD, Conductors, insulators and dissipative materials, ESD sensitive components and control, Personnel, grounding, wrist straps and shoe grounders, Testing, Identifying and eliminating the threat from non-conductive materials in the work area, Activities that create static electricity and ESD, and ESD safe handling, storage and transportation procedures.


Who this course is for:

  • This course is recommended for all types of manufacturing specialist, whether working with or managing the production of ESD sensitive components.
  • Managers
  • Designers
  • Assembly personnel
  • Inspection personnel
  • Quality personnel
