ESD Certification refers to the Electrostatic Discharge Protection System Certification. The ESD20.20 standard is a benchmark for electrostatic discharge protection control systems. This standard is a manufacturer accreditation standard vigorously promoted by the ESD Association (ESDA), which is composed of manufacturers and users of electronic components, including major companies such as IBM and MOTOROLA. OEM factories or suppliers of these companies must obtain and maintain ESD20.20 certification to qualify as OEMs and product suppliers.

The full name of the ESD20.20 standard is ANSI/ESDS20.20. Based on ISO9001, the ESD20.20 standard specifies specific requirements for electrostatic discharge protection control systems. It provides clear regulations on various aspects, including the establishment of a factory's ESD system, the setup of EPA (Electrostatic Protected Area), packaging of sensitive devices, handling of production processes, personnel training and assessment, establishment and inspection of internal audit systems, and testing methods. This standard clearly defines all these aspects for the factory's ESD system, EPA setup, packaging of sensitive devices, handling of production processes, personnel training and assessment, establishment and inspection of internal audit systems, and testing methods.

Industries Applicable for ESD

Includes electronics, electrical, IT, and telecommunications, among others.

1. Enterprises with high electrostatic protection requirements, such as those producing chips and magnetic heads.

2. Subsidiaries or suppliers of well-known multinational corporations, such as IBM and INTEL.

3. Renowned EMS enterprises undertaking OEM and ODM projects.

ESD Certification Process

1. Fully Understand the Standard Thoroughly comprehend the requirements of the S20.20 standard, especially the management and technical requirements, guiding principles, and related technical specifications.

2. Establish an ESD Control Plan Organize an ESD team, appoint an ESD supervisor or ESD coordinator, or form a team. Designate the ESD supervisor or ESD coordinator. Based on the enterprise's highest sensitivity to ESD, develop a scientific, reasonable, feasible, and practical ESD control plan, including various documents such as the ESD control plan and procedural files.

3. Implement the ESD Control Plan Execute according to the requirements of the ESD control plan.

4. ESD Assessment and Pre-Audit After implementing the ESD control plan, consider inviting ESD consulting experts to conduct a pre-assessment and pre-audit of the company's ESD facilities. The purpose is to identify non-conformities with the standard and take corrective measures before the formal certification audit to ensure a smooth certification process.

5. Select an ESD Certification Agency -> Apply Once the company's ESD program has been successfully implemented and assessed, you can approach a certification agency to apply for formal certification.
