ESD Tweezers for Semiconductor Assembly Semiconductor assembly involves handling components that can be extremely small, mechanically fragile and sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Integrated circuits, bare dies, MEMS devices, optoelectronic components and surface-mount devices may require controlled handling throughout placement, inspection, testing, rework and packaging. The right ESD tweezers must do more than grip a miniature component. They should provide: Controlled electrostatic behaviour...
