    3 in stock

    Book SynopsisProvides the understanding and practical skills needed to develop and maintain an effective ESD control program for manufacturing, storage, and handling of ESD sensitive components This essential guide to ESD control programs explains the principles and practice of ESD control in an easily accessible way whilst also providing more depth and a wealth of references for those who want to gain a deeper knowledge of the subject. It describes static electricity and ESD principles such as triboelectrification, electrostatic fields, and induced voltages, with the minimum of theory or mathematics. It is designed for the reader to dip into as required, rather than need to read cover to cover. The ESD Control Program Handbook begins with definitions and commonly used terminology, followed by the principles of static electricity and ESD control. Chapter 3 discusses ESD susceptible electronic devices, and how ESD susceptibility of a component is measured. This is followed by the Seven habits of Table of ContentsIntroduction Foreword Preface Acknowledgements 1 Definitions and Terminology 1.1 Scientific notation and SI unit prefixes 1.2 Charge, electrostatic fields and voltage 1.2.1 Charge 1.2.2 Ions 1.2.3 Dissipation and neutralization of electrostatic charge 1.2.4 Voltage (potential) 1.2.5 Electric or electrostatic field 1.2.6 Gauss’s Law 1.2.7 Electrostatic attraction (ESA) 1.2.8 Permittivity 1.3 Electric current 1.4 Electrostatic discharge (ESD) 1.4.1 ESD Models 1.4.2 ElectroMagnetic Interference (EMI) 1.5 Earthing, grounding and equipotential bonding 1.6 Power and Energy 1.7 Resistance, resistivity and conductivity 1.7.1 Resistance 1.7.2 Resistivity and conductivity 1.7.2.1 Surface resistivity and surface resistance 1.7.2.2 Volume resistance, volume resistivity and conductivity 1.7.3 Insulators, conductors, conductive, dissipative and antistatic materials 1.7.4 Point to point resistance 1.7.5 Resistance to ground 1.7.6 Combination of resistances 1.8 Capacitance 1.9 Shielding 1.10 Dielectric breakdown strength 1.11 Relative humidity and dew point References 2 The principles of static electricity and electrostatic discharge (ESD) control 2.1 Overview 2.2 Contact charge generation (triboelectrification) 2.2.1 The polarity and magnitude of charging 2.3 Electrostatic charge build-up and dissipation 2.3.1 A simple electrical model of electrostatic charge build-up 2.3.2 Capacitance is variable 2.3.3 Charge decay time 2.3.4 Conductors and insulators revisited 2.3.5 The effect of relative humidity 2.4 Conductors in electrostatic fields 2.4.1 Voltage on conducting and insulating bodies and surfaces 2.4.2 Electrostatic field in practical situations 2.4.3 Faraday cage 2.4.4 Induction: An isolated conductive object attains a voltage when in an electric field 2.4.1 Induction charging: An object can become charged by grounding it 2.4.2 Faraday pail and shielding of charges within a closed object 2.5 Electrostatic discharges 2.5.1 ESD (sparks) between conducting objects 2.5.2 ESD from insulating surfaces 2.5.3 Corona discharge 2.5.4 Other types of discharge 2.6 Common electrostatic discharge sources 2.6.1 ESD from the human body 2.6.2 ESD from charged conductive objects 2.6.3 Charged device ESD 2.6.4 ESD from a charged board 2.6.5 ESD from a charged module 2.6.6 ESD from charged cables 2.7 Electronic models of ESD 2.8 Electrostatic attraction (ESA) 2.8.1 ESA and particle contamination 2.8.2 Neutralisation of surface voltages by air ions 2.8.3 Ionisers 2.8.4 Rate of charge neutralisation 2.8.5 The region of effective charge neutralisation around an ioniser 2.8.6 Ioniser balance and charging of a surface by an unbalanced ioniser 2.9 Electromagnetic interference (EMI) 2.10 How to avoid ESD damage of components 2.10.1 The circumstances leading to ESD damage of a component 2.10.2 Risk of ESD damage 2.10.3 The principles of ESD control References Bibliography 3 ESD sensitive devices (ESDS) 3.1 What are ESD sensitive devices?

  • MetaAlgorithmics

    John Wiley & Sons Inc MetaAlgorithmics

    Book SynopsisThe confluence of cloud computing, parallelism and advanced machine intelligence approaches has created a world in which the optimum knowledge system will usually be architected from the combination of two or more knowledge-generating systems. There is a need, then, to provide a reusable, broadly-applicable set of design patterns to empower the intelligent system architect to take advantage of this opportunity. This book explains how to design and build intelligent systems that are optimized for changing system requirements (adaptability), optimized for changing system input (robustness), and optimized for one or more other important system parameters (e.g., accuracy, efficiency, cost). It provides an overview of traditional parallel processing which is shown to consist primarily of task and component parallelism; before introducing meta-algorithmic parallelism which is based on combining two or more algorithms, classification engines or other systems.

  • Systemic Thinking

    John Wiley & Sons Inc Systemic Thinking

    Book SynopsisSystemic thinking is the process of understanding how systems influence one another within a world of systems and has been defined as an approach to problem solving by viewing problems as parts of an overall system, rather than reacting to a specific part, outcome, or event. This book provides a complete overview of systemic thinking, exploring a framework and graphical technique for understanding and identifying new ways to more efficiently solve problems and create solutions. Demystifying the conjunction of systems concepts and systemic diagramming techniques, this comprehensive pocket guide introduces and explains the basis of systemigrams, how to create a systemigram and a SystemiShow, illuminates multiple complex problems, and provides an overview of what purpose they serve for today''s industry professionals.

    Book SynopsisA multidisciplinary reference of engineering measurement tools, techniques, and applications?Volume 2 When you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot measure it, when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meager and unsatisfactory kind; it may be the beginning of knowledge, but you have scarcely in your thoughts advanced to the stage of science. ? Lord Kelvin Measurement falls at the heart of any engineering discipline and job function. Whether engineers are attempting to state requirements quantitatively and demonstrate compliance; to track progress and predict results; or to analyze costs and benefits, they must use the right tools and techniques to produce meaningful, useful data.

  • Modeling and Simulation of Discrete Event Systems

    John Wiley & Sons Inc Modeling and Simulation of Discrete Event Systems

    Book SynopsisComputer modeling and simulation (M&S) allows engineers to study and analyze complex systems. Discrete-event system (DES)-M&S is used in modern management, industrial engineering, computer science, and the military. As computer speeds and memory capacity increase, so DES-M&S tools become more powerful and more widely used in solving real-life problems. Based on over 20 years of evolution within a classroom environment, as well as on decades-long experience in developing simulation-based solutions for high-tech industries, Modeling and Simulation of Discrete-Event Systems is the only book on DES-M&S in which all the major DES modeling formalisms activity-based, process-oriented, state-based, and event-based are covered in a unified manner: A well-defined procedure for building a formal model in the form of event graph, ACD, or state graph Diverse types of modeling templates and examples that can be used as building blocks for a complex, real-lifeTable of ContentsPREFACE xvii ABBREVIATIONS xix PART I BASICS OF SYSTEM MODELING AND SIMULATION 1 1.

    Wiley Heterogeneous Networks in LTEAdvanced

    Book SynopsisA comprehensive summary of theoretical and practical developments in LTE Heterogeneous Networks The last decade has witnessed the proliferation of mobile broadband data and the trend is likely to increase in the coming years. Current cellular networks are ill equipped to deal with this surge in demand. To satisfy user demand and maximize profits, a new paradigm to operate networks is needed. Heterogeneous networks, that deploy an overlay of small cells with limited coverage and transmit power, over a macro coverage area is the solution by providing capacity and coverage where it is needed. This book presents a comprehensive overview of small cell based heterogeneous networks within the framework of 3GPP LTE-Advanced which is the major enabler of current and future heterogeneous networks. The book first establishes the basics of LTE standards 8 -10.

  • Space Electronic Reconnaissance

    Wiley Space Electronic Reconnaissance

    Book SynopsisPresents the theories and applications of determining the position of an object in space through the use of satellites As the importance of space reconnaissance technology intensifies, more and more countries are investing money in building their own space reconnaissance satellites. Due to the secrecy and sensitivity of the operations, it is hard to find published papers and journals on the topic outside of military and governmental agencies. This book aims to fill the gap by presenting the various applications and basic principles of a very modern technology. The space electronic reconnaissance system in mono/multi-satellite platforms is a critical feature which can be used for detection, localization, tracking or identification of the various kinds of signal sources from radar, communication or navigation systems. Localization technology in space electronic reconnaissance uses single or multiple satellite receivers which receive signals from radarTable of ContentsPreface xiii Acknowledgments xv Acronyms xvii 1
