Upcoming DfR Joint Webinar: ESD Damage - The Surprisingly Dominant Failure Mechanism!

DfR Solutions, in association with Dangelmayer Associates, is proud to announce the Electrostatic Discharge: The Surprisingly Dominant Failure Mechanism webinar, to be held on October 21, 2010, from 2:00 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.

While most companies are acutely aware of the hazards of electrostatic discharge (ESD), few are aware of just how pervasive ESD failures actually are. Recent studies into the misdiagnosis of these failures suggest that ESD damage may, in fact, be a dominant failure mechanism on the factory floor and in the field. Attend this joint webinar to learn the latest facts about ESD damage, failure analysis, and design-related ESD damage prevention techniques.

Dangelmayer Associates offers a full range of customized ESD/EOS (Electrostatic Program Management/Electrical Over Stress) professional consulting services on a Global basis for both product design and manufacturing, including but not limited to S20.20 Programs, Class 0, CDM, Charged Board Events, S20.20, EOS and Cleanrooms.
