Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Control for Lab and Factory Engineers and Managers

This course is not yet approved for WSQ funding

This course equips engineers and managers with the essential knowledge and skills to manage Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) in lab and factory environments. Participants will learn about ESD principles, the causes of static charge generation, and the impact of ESD on IC manufacturing. The course delves into ESD control practices, including grounding systems, anti-static materials, ionization devices, and ESD-safe handling procedures.

Through hands-on training, participants will evaluate and implement ESD control standards such as ANSI/ESD S20.20 and IEC 61340. They will also learn to conduct ESD performance tests, audit control measures, and foster employee awareness to mitigate risks. This course empowers professionals to improve ESD safety and ensure compliance in critical operational environments..

Learning Outcomes

By end of the course, learners should be able to:

  • LO1: Apply control measures to manage ESD generation based ESD principles.
  • LO2: Evaluate and recommend actions to improve ESD control effectiveness in accordance to ESD standards
