Electrostatic Discharge
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic
components. Therefore, all work performed on assemblies consisting of
electronic components should be done at a static-free workstation.
Figure 1-3
is an example of a static-safe workstation using two kinds of
ESD protection:
• Conductive table mat and wrist-strap combination
• Conductive floor mat and heel-strap combination
These methods may be used together or separately.
