Although protection circuitry has been

designed into this device, proper precautions

should be taken to avoid exposure to

electrostatic discharge (ESD) during handling

and mounting. VI employs a human-body

model (HBM) and a charged-device model

(CDM) for ESD-susceptibility testing and

protection design evaluation. ESD voltage

thresholds are dependent on the circuit

parameters used to define the mode.

Although no industry-wide standard has been

adopted for the CDM, a standard HBM

(resistance = 1500 ohms, capacitance =

100pf) is widely used and therefore can be

used for comparison purposes. The HBM

ESD threshold presented here was obtained

by using these circuit parameters.

The Standard ship method for volume production of the TC-210 series is in a matrix tray. These

trays are 100% recyclable. The trays also offer the added feature that they can be continuously

feed into a pick-n-place machine eliminating the down time required with tape-n-reel.
