Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
A sudden discharge of electrostatic electricity can destroy static-sensitive devices
or micro-circuitry. Therefore proper packaging and grounding techniques are
necessary precautions to prevent damage. Always take the following precautions:
1. Transport boards in ESD-safe containers such as boxes or bags.
2. Keep electrostatic sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at the
ESD-safe workplace.
3. Always be properly grounded when touching a sensitive board, component, or
assembly.
4. Store electrostatic-sensitive boards in protective packaging or on antistatic
mats.
Grounding Methods
Guard against electrostatic damage at the device by following these steps:
1. Cover workstations with approved antistatic material. Always wear a wrist
strap connected to workplace as well as properly grounded tools and
equipment.
2. Use antistatic mats, heel straps, or air ionizers for more protection.
3. As for handling electrostatical sensitive componrnts just handle it by the edge
or by their casing.
4. Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
5. Turn off power and input signals before inserting and removing connectors or
connecting test equipment.
6. Keep work area free of non-conductive materials such as ordinary plastic
assembly aids and styrofoam.
7. Use field service tools such as cutters, screwdrivers, and vacuum cleaners
that are conductive.
8. Always place drives and boards PCB-assembly-side down on the foam.
