Of all the electro magnetic susceptibility problems found during test and in the field, ESD is one of the toughest to overcome. With the growing consumer demand for reliability and availability, this timely book provides design engineers with a clear understanding of the ESD threat and offers a methodic, step-by-step attack to reduce its risk and test for immunity at all levels. Complete with case histories and their successful fixes, this is truly the most thorough and concise treatment of the broad ESD continuum available.
