Electrostatic Charge Control and IEST-RP-CC022.2 Wednesday, February 6, 2008 - 11:00 A.M. Central Standard Time
Learn the basic elements of both the physics of electrostatic charge and the steps required to implement a static charge control program in this live, one-hour Access the Experts course. Participants will be referred to appropriate sections of RP-CC022.2: Electrostatic Charge in Cleanrooms and Other Controlled Environments and to other standards on measurement and specification of ESD control properties of materials to be used in the manufacturing environment.
The emphasis will be on understanding the underlying science, but a deep scientific background is not required. The issues created by electrostatic charge in a high-technology manufacturing environment will be discussed. These issues are of major concern to pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing, electronics and disk drive assembly, and semiconductor packaging. Participants will gain knowledge on static charge parameters, generation of static charge, effects of static charge, elements
of ESD control, personnel and equipment issues, and ionizers.
Registration includes a copy of IEST-RP-CC022.2: Electrostatic Charge in Cleanrooms and Other Controlled Environments. |
