Guide
Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe
containers.
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at

Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their
containers.
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
Always make sure you are properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive
component or assembly.
