Handling of Electronic Components and ESD

The possibility of unseen damage caused by ESD is present whenever
components are transported, stored, or used. The risk of ESD damage can be
greatly reduced by paying close attention to how all components are handled.
— Perform work on all components at a static-safe workstation.
— Keep static-generating materials at least one meter away from all
components.
— Store or transport components in static-shielding containers.
Always handle printed circuit board assemblies by the edges. This will
reduce the possibility of ESD damage to components and prevent
contamination of exposed plating.

For more information about preventing ESD damage, contact the Electrical
Over Stress/Electrostatic Discharge (EOS/ESD) Association, Inc. The ESD
standards developed by this agency are sanctioned by the American National
Standards Institute (ANSI).
