Description
1. Introduction
Charged Device Model (CDM) electrostatic discharge is a common cause of microelectronic circuit failure. Sensitive devices can be seriously damaged or destroyed by a CDM discharge at relatively low voltage. This often occurs when the static charged device contacts a metal surface at a different potential. Such an electrostatic discharge often has an extremely fast rise time.
The Model ES640 is a robotic CDM (Charged Device Model) tester designed to meet all popular CDM ESD test methods, allowing both field induced air discharge methods (FICDM) and relay based contact discharge methods (LI-CCDM, CC-TLP, RP-CCDM). The system includes a computer, environment-controlled chamber, precision XYZ motion system, different types of CDM tester modules, and an automated test and data analysis software.
2. Features
- High resolution cameras (up to 3) allow for easy pin alignment operation
- High resolution motion control system (down to 1 µm step)
- Allows multiple devices being tested in a batch
- Patent-pending CCDM method allows better repeatability
- Airtight environment chamber increases drying unit efficiency
- Support regenerative drying unit (no need of nitrogen)
- No max pin count limitation
3. Applications
- General charged device model (CDM) system for package and wafer level tests
