(1) JEDEC document JEP155 states that 500-V HBM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process. Pins listed as ±2000 V may actually have higher performance.
(2) JEDEC document JEP157 states that 250-V CDM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process. Pins listed as ±500 V may actually have higher performance.
(3) All pins are HBM compliant to ±2000 V for all combinations as per JESD22-A114F, except for the following stress combinations:
- The Ethernet EN0RXIN, EN0TXON, EN0RXIP, and EN0TXOP pins to each other.
- The GPIO pins PM4, PM5, PM6, and PM7 to other pins.
These exceptions are compliant to 500 V and do not require any special handling beyond typical ESD control procedures during assembly operations per JEDEC publication JEP155. These pins do meet the 500-V CDM specification.
