Many electronic components used in highly technological devices can be damaged or degraded by sudden electrostatic discharges, known by the term Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Components such as transistors, diodes, laser diodes, electro-optical devices, and a variety of integrated circuits are all sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Many manufacturers are increasingly … [Read more...]
About the Author
M.Di Paolo Emilio
Maurizio Di Paolo Emilio holds a Ph.D. in Physics and is a telecommunication engineer and journalist. He has worked on various international projects in the field of gravitational wave research. Working as a software/hardware developer in the data acquisition system, he participated as the designer of the thermal compensation system (TCS) for the optical system used in the Virgo/Ligo Experiment (an experiment for detection of the gravitational wave that achieved the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics). He also works in the X-ray field to design new devices about high voltage X-ray and microbeam areas for radiobiological and microscopy applications. He collaborates with University of L'Aquila for research in the x-ray field, and works in the software/hardware engineering field as editor and technical writer. He is the author of several books published by Springer and LAP Lambert (http://amazon.com/author/maurizio), as well as numerous scientific and technical publications on electronics design, data acquisition system via GSM, power supply and photovoltaic systems.
