Abstract :
One of the possibilities to safely transport ESD sensitive devices is the use of the so-called JEDEC trays. The paper describes and assesses the current situation for test methods to characterize their ESD properties. It also evaluates the risk for devices due to the inhomogeneity of the currently used materials for conductive/dissipative trays.
