Often, the most challenging and anxiety-inducing decisions buyers encounter in the course of creating a world-class electrostatic discharge (ESD) program involve the selection of the ESD floor. Unlike other components in the program, the...
Every marketplace presents would-be buyers with landmines that need to be avoided, so why should ESD flooring be any different? The Internet may be a great resource, and it may offer an opportunity to save money on a new ESD floor. Indeed, at a time...
Understanding Charge Generation
Static electricity is generated by contact and separation. Any time two materials interact then separate, an exchange of electrons occurs between the two materials. If one or both materials are either nonconductive...
Since the invention of the first microprocessor by Intel in 1971, there has been a steady drive to create smaller, faster and more complex electronic circuitry.
According to the Sematech Roadmap for Semiconductors (www.sematech.org), the continued...
Static conductive tile attracts and routes static electricity charges away from valuable electronic equipment. Pathways in the tile drain the charge through it, into conductive adhesive, and on into copper stripping where the charge dissipates to...

Many facilities managers agonize unnecessarily while attempting to choose the “right” ESD flooring for their corporate environments. Because most high tech businesses house multiple processes, each with its own individual flooring requirement,...
The biggest budget buster in any ESD flooring project is unexpected floor preparation costs—or any cost above the price of the material, adhesive and labor.
Most project managers lose sleep just thinking about floor preparation. And no wonder:...
Late Model electronics are sensitive to static discharges of 2.0 kV. That means, the energy in a 2.0 V discharge will not interfere with the signals of older-model computers or PCs.
Today's faster, less robust chips are sensitive to charges as...
