  1. ESD prevention People groundingby Flooring system and conductive shoes The institute of Physics….. Electrostatic Measurement 13 -th November 2001…… ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  2. The place of ESD at Workshop • 1 - 60 to 70 % of electronic components failures are due to ElectroStatic Discharges (ESD). • 2 – In 1991 HP said : 90 % of ESD failures are latent ones. A latent failure does not give an immediate failure but entrain a failure later, a few days or some months later.  This kind of failure affect directly the reliability of electronic equipments.

  3. ESD Cost • Many data are available from several sources.  • Hewlett Packard, at the end of 80 th, estimated the gain equivalent to 50 000 PC the first year following the setting up of an ESD control program. • Estimated cost given for year 1993 at world level:       8 % of electronics market (about FFR 45 milliards (GBP ~ 5 billions). • My own experience (15 years with ESD protection): -        About 10 ESD faults formally identified Cost from GBP 100 to GBP 100, 000 • One example: During qualification of new ASIC components   20 components failed, cost ~ GBP 15,000. • But ESD failures, are difficult to identified !…. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  4. Different ESD models (RD 1) • 1 - Human body Model : HBM,  • 2 - Machine Model : MM, • 3 - Charged Devices Model : CDM,  • 4 - Field Induce Model : FIM , • 5 - Charged Chip Model : CCM . The ESD Model constraints depend on process used. • A basic rule:  No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  5. Components class 0 thresholds • In an Electro Static Discharge control plan, the sensitivity of components to be handled, must be well known. • The rules and practices must take into account the sensitivity of components and the processes used. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  6. Handle Components/equipments class 0. • Handling of class 0 components or equipments involve using every possible methods to fight against the presence of electrostatic charges: • Grounding the person‘s body, (wrist-strap, conductive shoes on dissipative floor); • Personal equipment (smocks, wrist-strap and its controller, conductive gloves,… • Grounding materials or equipments (working surface , iron…), • Shielding, • Packaging (antistatic, conductive), • Ionization, • People training, • Audit….. STATIC ELECTRICITY MUST BE UNDER CONTROL No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  7. How to eliminate Electrostatic Charges? • Conductors materials: Connect them to ground in respect of security rules, a person is a conductor too, he must be connected to ground.  • Insulating materials: Eliminate all insulating materials which are not necessary in the environment of the working surface. Get the other conductors, with antistat for instance and connect them to ground. • Elimination of parasitic electrostatic fields. Use, ionization systems, dissipative garnements, gloves… No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  8. StandardizationProcedure • The rules, method and limits to eliminate the ESD risk are given in standard documents: IEC 61340 5 -1 (RD2), IEC 61340 -5-2 (RD3). • 1 - Methods: Elimination of electrostatic charges on person : . Persons can be grounded by antistatic wrist-strap or by dissipative flooring system with conductive shoes, it depends of people activity. No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  9. Standardization Procedure • 2 - Limits   Depend on components sensitivity,   Most sensitive components are classified in class 0 in each model, and sensitivity can be less than 20 V. "For components with an ESD sensitivity less than hundred volts the ESD coordinator have to define complementary rules“like indicated in standard documents ( 61 340-5). No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  10. The objective • The objective was to handle, very sensitive and expensive electronic equipments by people in standing-up-position. • ESDS (ESD sensitive components) are announced as very sensitive. The threshold ESD in human body model is announced at about 20 V. • Smocks are antistatic/dissipative. The other classic equipments and rules are respected. • The use of antistatic wrist strap entrains large difficulties.  • So we want to use the floor as primary way to eliminate static charges. • In this configuration, people walking with conductive shoes must not develop a static charge > 10 V (10 V take into account a margin of 6 db(1/2) versus ESD sensitivity of components). No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  11. The performance of a flooring system can be characterised by the following specifications • Body voltage generation (BVG) as low as possible: < 10 V in our case, • Resistance to ground (Rtg): Lowest value must take into account security of persons. Highest value must guarantee the eliminations of electrostatic charges and a low charge accumulation. • Surface Resistivity (Rs): Same constraints as for resistance to ground (Rtg) • Decay time (Td). The value must be low enough to eliminate charge in time compatible with the human activity. No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  12. How does the static electricity is generated? • The static electricity is mainly generated by tribo-electricity, due to the shuffle, rubbing, between sole shoe and flooring covering.  • If the resistance between sole shoe and ground cannot eliminate the charges, there is accumulation of charges at sole shoe level.   • Then by influence, charges present on sole shoe attract the opposite charge at the feet of person who is charged by influence.  • As body is a conductor, the equivalent charges are present at the level of his hands. • The charges balance is got when charge generation is equal as charges elimination. The potential obtained is equal to BVG. • The simplified equivalent electrical diagram is given next page. No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  13. Equivalent electrical diagram • BVG = I (g). Rtg 1* ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  14. BVG measurementsOnly few manufacturers give data about this parameter.These measurements are done following STM ESD 97-2 specification (RD 9).They are done with conductive shoes Transversal resistance < 10 M ohm • Materials A to F are resin, Materials G and H are PVC carbon loaded. • F line cover several resin materials tested. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  15. Rtg Measurements • Materials A to F are resin, Materials G and H are PVC carbon loaded. • F line cover several resin materials tested. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  16. Rs MeasurementsOnly few manufacturers give informations about this parameter • Materials A to F are resin; Materials G and H are PVC carbon loaded. Materials with very low resistance < 10 K ohm are not include in these results and are not always good on BVG parameter. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  17. Theories…. • U= RI • Q = CV = it  • S = 15*10–6 (r1 -  r2) (Where, S is the surface charge density, r1 andr2 are permitivity of both materials in contact see RD 20) • Q = s*S (Where S is the surface in contact)  • V = Vo e t/RC ( t = 2.2 RC  V = 0,1 Vo; t = 5 RC  V = ~ 0 V) No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  18. Remarks (1) • Measurement of resistances on some resin flooring system with ASTM probes (Ø 63.5 mm, weight 5 pounds) give very large variations. • On same flooring system the use of IEC 61340-4-1 or 1081 probes give lower resistance values and better repeativity. • But In case of difficulty with ASTM probes, very often BVG is larger than the lower resistance measured that we hope. • Measurement on a good flooring system usually give very uniform resistance value, even with ASTM probes. • Resistance values less than 100M ohm is low enough.  • So the best solution is to use the real configuration following the documents ESD-STM 97-1-1999 with conductive shoes*(RD 8). *Not all ESD shoes give the same results but these with Rt < 10 7 ohm usually give good results. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  19. Remarks (2) • Measurements of Body Voltage Generation is defined by different standard documents (NF EN 1815, NF P 62-001, ESD ASTM 97-2 1999 ). We choose American norm ESD ASTM 97-2 1999 this document advocate real configuration ( conductive shoes, low displacement). • For decay time measurements, normalisation document advocate to measure from 1000 V to 100 V; but an American flooring system manufacturer measure this parameter from 100 V to 10 V(it depends of needs). ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  20. Apparatus (1) • Resistance measurements • Megohmeter Measure voltage 10 /100 V Resistance measure : 10 4 < R (ohm) ≧ 10 12. Normalised probes : ASTM (difficult to use on hard resin flooring system) , IEC 61340-4-1, NF EN 1081. *Repeteative measures at 100 or 10 Volts are a good omen to obtain à low BVG. • Conductive Shoes Transversal resistance < 10 M ohm No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  21. Apparatus (2) • Voltage measurements • Charge analyser: Voltage > or = 1100 V Adjustable thresholds. time measurements From 0.1 to ~ 60 seconds. • Graphic recorder: • Thermometer/ Hygrometer . Many similar materials can be used. No charge, no discharge. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  22. Conclusions • The single characterisation of flooring system by measurement of resistance to ground is not sufficient. The performance of a flooring system must be characterised by the following specifications with RH compatible with the environment. • Body voltage generation (BVG) (following ESD-STM 97-2-1999) : < 10 V (For ESDS 20 V) • Resistance to ground (Rtg) : • Rtg1* (following IEC 61340-4-1 / NF EN 10 85) 10 5 < Rtg 1 (ohm) < 10 8 • Rtg2 (following ESD-STM 97-1-1999) 10 5 < Rtg 2 (ohm) < 10 8 • Surface Resistivity (Rs*): 10 5 < Rs (ohm) < 10 8 • Decay time (Td) Td < 0.3 s (1000 V to 100 V or less) ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE

  23. Final Conclusion • The European standardization, the flooring system manufacturers, and the users should take into account these methods and parameters. No charge, no discharge. Do not forget : A static dissipative flooring system with conductive shoes is an element of an ESD protection system. in workshop. It allow to completely eliminate ESD risk Human Body Model in standing working position. ESD Conseils DUBAN Michel 26000 VALENCE - FRANCE
