Automated ESD Test Systems

ESD Guns has acquired an NSG 439 and is offering it at a substantially discounted rate from MSRP. The chassis of the discharge pistol is designed for a mounted use on a robot, but is equivalent to the Teseq NSG 438 in every other way.  This will be suitable for robotic applications, or track mount applications performing vertical air discharge. Alternatively, a handle can be fabricated and can be used as a pistol comparable to it's NSG 438 sister model. Teseq NSG 439 Overview: Today’s growing trend towards miniaturizing and more comprehensive product standards means that ESD testing is now required not only for operating controls, but also for any associated peripheral devices such as sensors, actuators and controllers. Many of these devices have multi-pin connectors with high pin counts. In order to meet space restrictions, these pins are often arranged close together.However, conventional air-discharge testing of these closely spaced pins is problematic because the airdischarge arc may jump to an adjacent pin instead of the pin intended for test. With an innovative robotic air-discharge adapter accessory, Teseq provides a tool which will prevent unintentional discharge paths. Furthermore, the approach speed, which is crucial for reliable air-discharge testing, can be programmed as a constant.ESD testing of connectors often requires that each individual pin is tested for an extensive range of conditions including multiple discharges, polarities, voltage settings, and even R/C networks. Connector testing can take many hours or even days of monotonous, precise effort to complete. As a result, when this testing is done manually it is prone to errors. The advantage of robotic testing is that these procedures can be automated and precisely executed, ensuring a level of repeatability that cannot be achieved with manual testing.

Most customers commonly measure and monitor ESD immunity testing using electrostatic meters, voltmeters or scope probes to monitor ESD events. The Aprel ESD measurement solution takes it to another level, allowing users to capture realtime data and 3D imaging of their product during and after an electrostatic discharge test sequence. Another robot can be used to automatic placement of the discharges. The better the oscilloscope, the better quality of data will be generated. The software will measure and capture events across the complete product area in real time as the esd wave travels along your device. Post test analysis will highlight sensitive components or areas in red. Allowing for easy determination of the weak points and speeding up development cycles. ESD H-Field Probe Features: Highly shielded H‐Field probe Extended barrel length 220mm provides better isolation from high electric fields Isolation provided by unique core design, rejects electric fields stopping contamination of the transmission line High isolation allows for higher signal to noise ratio (isolation from electric fields) Probe has been designed to support ESD measurements Air Trigger Probe Features: Probe has been designed to trigger on the ESD event This design allows for complete autonomy from vendor specific ESD Generators Sets the oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer to measure Synchronously Application allows for acquisition of very fast signals Broadband allowing for greater flexibility
