Overview of ESD impacts over industry yield: Technical consideration to control ESD during prototype development and production, advanced inspection techniques for ESD failure analysis

This paper outlines how ESD occurs, its influences during Proto Type development / Production and Technical factors that's required to consider to effectively prevent the ESD failures. Also illustrate how ESD failure can be analyzed through advanced Inspection Techniques. And also helps to explore the hidden cost of ESD failure and to take necessary preventive measures to address the “invisible foe” of ESD damages.
