Contamination and ESD Control in High-Technology Manufacturing / Wiley - IEEE Bd.1 (PDF)

A practical "how to" guide that effectively deals with the
control of both contamination and ESD

This book offers effective strategies and techniques for
contamination and electrostatic discharge (ESD) control that can be
implemented in a wide range of high-technology industries,
including semiconductor, disk drive, aerospace, pharmaceutical,
medical device, automobile, and food production manufacturing. The
authors set forth a new and innovative methodology that can manage
both contamination and ESD, often considered to be mutually
exclusive challenges requiring distinct strategies.

Beginning with two general chapters on the fundamentals of
contamination and ESD control, the book presents a logical
progression of topics that collectively build the necessary skills
and knowledge:

* Analysis methods for solving contamination and ESD
problems

* Building the contamination and ESD control environment,
including design and construction of cleanrooms and ESD protected
environments

* Cleaning processes and the equipment needed to support these
processes

* Tooling design and certification

* Continuous monitoring

* Consumable supplies and packaging materials

* Controlling contamination and ESD originating from people

* Management of cleanrooms and ESD protected workplace
environments

Contamination and ESD Control in High-Technology
Manufacturing conveys a practical, working knowledge of
contamination and ESD control strategies and techniques, and it is
filled with case studies that illustrate key principles and the
benefits of contamination and ESD control. Moreover, its
straightforward style makes the material, which integrates many
disciplines of engineering and science, clear and accessible.

Written by three leading industry experts, this book is an
essential guide for engineers and designers across the many
industries where contamination and ESD control is a concern.
