BS EN 61340-3-2:2007

This standard BS EN 61340-3-2:2007 Electrostatics is classified in these ICS categories:

• 35.240.50 IT applications in industry
• 25.040.40 Industrial process measurement and control
• 17.220.99 Other standards related to electricity and magnetism
• 29.020 Electrical engineering in general

Describes the discharge current waveforms used to simulate machine model (MM) electrostatic discharges (ESD) and the basic requirements for equipment used to develop and verify these waveforms. This standard covers MM ESD waveforms for use in general test methods and for application to materials or objects, electronic components and other items for ESD withstand test or performance evaluation purposes. The specific application of these MM ESD waveforms to non-powered semiconductor devices is covered in IEC 60749-27. The major change of this document is that it no longer contains the application to semiconductor devices.
