I have worked with Bob Vermillion for over a decade on various ESD projects while at Motorola and ON Semiconductor in Phoenix , AZ. We have hired Bob to evaluate many types of packaging material, work station equipment, and have had Bob do audits at our facility. Bob Vermillion and his wife Renee always gave us World Class professional service. We used the detailed reports along with Bob's extensive professional certifications when working with our customers and suppliers. Bob Vermillion's service has been of great value to me, ON Semiconductor, and Motorola. We will employ Bob in future projects.

Subj:   ESD packaging for the Planar package

From:  Michaell@sdli.com (Lancaster, Michael)

Hi Don:

I know that Richard Youshock has sourced a packaging scheme for the Planar package.  To do this he engaged Bob Vermillion for both the design and advice on material selection etc.

Bob is a renowned expert in the field of ESD packaging and materials and has helped many engineers, including myself, through the intricacies of ESD specifications, regulations and measurement. You can be assured that there

will be no problems from any of our customers with the package he has come

up with.

Call me if you would like to discuss further.

Michael

Evaluation Methods for Vacuum Formed ESD Polymer Types: Part 1

This two-part article reviews the test methods used to evaluate ESD protective thermoformed polymers and describes their relative performance. In Part 1, ESD test methods for material characterization are described; in addition, three polymer classification types for vacuum forming are examined.

Evaluation Methods for Vacuum Formed ESD Polymer Types: Part 2

In Part 1 of this article, a discussion of ESD industry practices and Standard Test Methods for materials assessment was outlined describing the types of polymeric materials (Antistatic, Carbon Loaded and Inherently Conductive Polymers) used in handling and protecting ESD sensitive components. In Part 2, a comparison of the relative performance of the polymer types when subjected to a rigorous battery of ESD tests is presented.
