Handlingdevicesthataresensitivetoelectrostaticdischarge

Anycomputerpartcontainingtransistorsorintegratedcircuits(ICs)shouldbeconsideredsensitiveto

electrostaticdischarge(ESD.)ESDdamagecanoccurwhenthereisadifferenceinchargebetweenobjects.

ProtectagainstESDdamagebyequalizingthechargesothatthemachine,thepart,theworkmat,andthe

Notes:

1.Useproduct-speciﬁcESDprocedureswhentheyexceedtherequirementsnotedhere.

2.MakesurethattheESDprotectivedevicesyouusehavebeencertiﬁed(ISO9000)asfullyeffective.

WhenhandlingESD-sensitiveparts:

•Keepthepartsinprotectivepackagesuntiltheyareinsertedintotheproduct.

•Avoidcontactwithotherpeople.

•Wearagroundedwriststrapagainstyourskintoeliminatestaticonyourbody.

•Preventthepartfromtouchingyourclothing.Mostclothingisinsulativeandretainsachargeeven
