E LECTROSTATIC D ISCHARGE (ESD)
The SSDs will meet the ESD limits specified in the 61000-4-2 guidelines and the customer’s
enhanced ESD procedure. The specification will determine whether the contact or air discharge
method should be used. Performance degradation is defined as a decreased throughput rate. No
data errors are allowed. Table 43 lists the ESD requirements.

The following table lists the acceptance criteria definitions for the ESD limits.
Table 44. Acceptance Criteria Definitions
Climatic Conditions
Ambient Temperature 15 o C to 35 o C
Relative Humidity 30% to 60%
Atmospheric Pressure 86kPa (860 millibar) to 106 kPa (1,060 millibar)
Voltage Level Discharge Type Pass/Fail Performance Criteria
+/-2 kV Contact A
+/-4 kV Contact B
+/-6 kV Contact B
+/-8 kV Contact C
+/-2 kV Air A

A
The apparatus will continue to operate as intended, i.e., normal unit operation with no
degradation of performance.
B
The apparatus will continue to operate as intended after completion of the test. However,
during the test, some degradation of performance is allowed, provided there is no data lost
or operator intervention to restore apparatus function.
C
Temporary loss of function is allowed. Operator intervention is acceptable to restore
apparatus function.
Note: Hardware failures are not acceptable for any level of the above performance criteria.
