WORKING STANDARDS FOR PREVENTING BREAKAGE OF SEMICONDUCTORS

1. Scope
The standards provide for items to be generally observed in carrying and handling semiconductors in relative
manufacturers during maintenance and handling thereof. (They apply the same to handling of abnormal goods
such as rejected goods being returned).

2. Object parts

(1) Micro computer
(2) Integrated circuits (IC)
(3) Field-effect transistors (FET)
(4) P.C. boards or the like on which the parts mentioned in (1) and (2) of this paragraph are equipped.

3. Items to be observed in handling

(1) Use a conductive container for carrying and storing of parts. (Even rejected goods should be handled in
the same way).
A conductive polyvinyl bag
(2) When any part is handled uncovered (in counting, packing and the like), the handling person must always
use himself as a body earth. (Make yourself a body earth by passing one M ohm earth resistance through
a ring or bracelet).
(3) Be careful not to touch the parts with your clothing when you hold a part even if a body earth is being
taken.
(4) Be sure to place a part on a metal plate with grounding.
(5) Be careful not to fail to turn off power when you repair the printed circuit board. At the same time, try
to repair the printed circuit board on a grounded metal plate.
