Damage from ESD is a major cost to the microcircuit industry in terms of time, money, and mission risk. The EEE Parts Bulletin has released three special issues on ESD, and this issue is a compendium of these three issues plus an overall view of the subject matter. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) safe materials combine the mechanical properties of high-performance plastics with controlled electrical conductivity. Our precision manufacturing delivers ESD-safe parts that prevent damaging static electricity buildup in sensitive electronics manufacturing, aerospace. The copper-based approach is considered a bottleneck for further improvements in data transfer capacity. Optical communication can dramatically increase the bandwidth between servers while reducing complexity, power consumption, and cost. Easy to install, clean, and maintain, it provides a safe, compliant surface for any workspace. Therefore, the operating conditions pose the greatest challenge.
