INTRODUCTION
This part of IEC 61340 covers the requirements necessary to design, establish, implement
and maintain an electrostatic discharge (ESD) control program for activities that: manufacture,
process, assemble, install, package, label, service, test, inspect, transport or otherwise
handle electrical or electronic parts, assemblies and equipment susceptible to damage by
electrostatic discharges greater than or equal to 100 V human body model (HBM), 200 V
charged device model (CDM) and 35 V on isolated conductors. Isolated conductors were
historically represented by machine model (MM). The 35 V limit is related to the level
achievable using ionizers specified in this standard. The MM test is no longer required for
qualification of devices, only the HBM and CDM tests are. The MM test is retained in this
standard for process control of isolated conductors only.
Any contact and physical separation of materials or flow of solids, liquids, or particle-laden
gases can generate electrostatic charges. Common sources of ESD include charged:
personnel, conductors, common polymeric materials, and processing equipment. ESD
damage can occur when:
• a charged person or o
