SAN JOSE, CA – EMS company Sanmina-SCI Corp. announced the production of what the company believes is the world's first PCB with embedded ESD protection, covering 100% of the components on the board.
 
Sanmina-SCI's PCB division collaborated with Viking InterWorks and Shocking Technologies to manufacture Viking VLP DDR2 memory modules with Sanmina-SCI's eESD embedded electrostatic discharge protection technology.
 
Reportedly, testing by a third party indicated improvement in ESD resistance of the sensitive memory devices mounted on the PCB. Multiple 6,000-volt discharges were directly injected into the modules without any damage or drop in performance recorded, said the company. This was said to represent a 200% improvement in the energy protection level provided to the modules.
