  • Page 45 Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding material. ● Use a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded work surface and use properly grounded tools and ● equipment. Use conductive field service tools, such as cutters, screw drivers, and vacuums. ● When fixtures must directly contact dissipative surfaces, use fixtures made only of static-safe materials.

  • Page 46: Electrostatic Discharge Information

    Electrostatic discharge information A sudden discharge of static electricity from your finger or other conductor can destroy static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry. Often the spark is neither felt nor heard, but damage occurs. An electronic device exposed to electrostatic discharge (ESD) might not appear to be affected at all and can work perfectly throughout a normal cycle.

  • Page 47: Preventing Electrostatic Damage To Equipment

    Preventing electrostatic damage to equipment Many electronic components are sensitive to ESD. Circuitry design and structure determine the degree of sensitivity. The following packaging and grounding precautions are necessary to prevent static electricity damage to electronic components. To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe containers such as tubes, bags, or boxes. ●...
