STEP 5. NOISE IMMUNITY
Know the project’s planned environment
Circuit noise immunity is the ability of a
device or component to operate in the
presence of noise disturbance .
Electro Static Discharge is the sudden
discharge (i.e. transients, surge). To the
circuit, this is a rapid high voltage, low
current situation.

NOISE IMMUNITY
lab misuse, ESD, unwanted signals
Fatal to Electronics:
• Senior Design Lab misuse, abuse.
• KEEP A CLEAN BENCHTOP…… Fasten boards and
circuits to the bench! STOP and clean up! Get some
sleep!
• End-user or consumer abuse and solutions:
• Bridge to block reverse polarity,
• Schottky diode: very fast switching times and low forward
voltage drop. As low as 0.15 volts for low ma applications.
• Zener diode across the input.
• Circuit breaker – GFI
