  • Page 81: Esd Guidelines

    ESD guidelines Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) ESD components are destroyed by voltage and energy far below the limits of human perception. Voltages of this kind occur as soon as a device or an assembly is touched by a person who is not electrostatically discharged. ESD components which have been subject to such voltage are usually not recognized immediately as being defective, because the malfunction does not occur until after a longer period of operation.

    Glossary American Wire Gauge American Wire Gauge is a number assigned to a specific conductor or wire cross-section. Each AWG number represents a jump of 26% in the cross-sectional area. The thicker the wire, the smaller the AWG number. A copper wire with AWG 10 has a diameter of 2.54 mm, a cross-sectional area of 5 mm²...
  • Page 86 Glossary Function code The function code defines the meaning of the message frame. The function code defines the structure of the message frame. Half-duplex mode Bidirectional data traffic. Data is exchanged between the communication partners but only in one direction at a time. In half-duplex mode, the driver switches the twisted-pair cable R(A),R(B) of the interface between send mode and receive mode.
