For machine model ESD of ADM483E

Question

Hi, All.

HBM (Human Body Model) air of ESD rating has been defined as ± 15V in Table 8. 
 Please tell me the ESD rating of the Machine Model. 
 
 Best Regards, 
 Liberte

Hi Liberte, 
 Unfortunately, we have not tested the ADM483E with the MM ESD standard. 
 The MM ESD classifications range is from 100 V to > 400 V. In comparison the HBM model can be >8 kV, up to 15 kV for example. Usually, the stress level of MM ESD is approximately 10 times lower than that of HBM ESD. 
 This JEDEC article provides the motivation for Discontinuing Use of the Machine Model for Device ESD Qualification: http://www.jedec.org/sites/default/files/The_Machine_Model__JC14%203Version_Final_October2012.pdf
