About ANSI/ESD S20.20
Standard for the development of an ESD Control Program for the protection of Electrical and Electronic Parts, Assemblies and Equipment. (Excluding electrically initiated explosive devices)
The requirements in ANSI/ESD S20.20 standard are applicable to all activities that manufacture, process, assemble, install, package, label, service, test, inspect or otherwise handle electrical or electronic parts, assemblies and equipments susceptible to esd damage.
As of today, about 140 companies worldwide are certified to ANSI/ESD S20.20 standard. Most of these companies are either one of the following providers:
• Electronic manufacturing service provider
• Electronic components, semiconductor and computer products distributor
• Electronic product manufacturer
• Electronic system manufacturer/supplier
• Electronic and Semiconductor testing facility
These companies are either direct or indirect end customer for companies involving in the semiconductor chips manufacturing (wafer fabrication) and semiconductor chips assembly and testing.
Only a handful of ANSI/ESD S20.20 certified facilities are from semiconductor chips manufacturing (wafer fabrication) and semiconductor chips assembly and testing.
Is your ESD sensitive parts/components supplier certified to ANSI/ESD S20.20?
If the answer is NO, then, it is the company’s responsibility to initiate an action plan to ensure all his ESDS parts/components supplier certified to ANSI/ESD S20.20.
Benefits of ANSI/ESD S20.20 certification
• Sustain effectiveness of current ESD Control program
• Improve product yield
• Enhance customer confidence and satisfaction
• Create a competitive advantage and increase company’s marketability
This is it. ANSI/ESD S20.20 standard certification is the way for continuously improve the reliability and quality of ESDS parts/components.
