Introduction

Static-safe Handling Procedures

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can
damage or destroy electronic
components. Use a static-safe work
station to perform at work on electronic
assemblies. This figure shows a
static-safe work station using two types
of ESD protection:
- Conductive table-mat and wrist-strap
- Conductive floor-mat and heel-strap
Both types, when used together, provide
a significant level of ESD protection. Of
the two, only the table-mat and wrist-strap combination provides adequate ESD
protection when used alone. To ensure user safety, the static-safe accessories
must provide at least 1 M of isolation from ground.

Some of the material in the safety enclosure can generate static
electricity. Take care if you are using ESD sensitive devices in its
vicinity.
