Section 8A: Safety
Precautions Against ESD
Make sure to discharge any built-up static electricity from yourself and your electronic
devices
before
touching an electronic device or connecting one device to another. The
recommendation from Palm is that you take this precaution before connecting your device
to your computer, placing the device in a cradle, or connecting it to any other device. You
can do this in many ways, including the following:
䢇
Ground yourself when you’re holding your mobile device by simultaneously touching a
metal surface that is at earth ground. For example, if your computer has a metal case
and is plugged into a standard three-prong grounded outlet, touching the case should
discharge the ESD on your body.
䢇
Increase the relative humidity of your environment.
䢇
Install ESD-specific prevention items, such as grounding mats.
Conditions That Enhance ESD Occurrences
Conditions that can contribute to the buildup of static electricity in the environment
include the following:
䢇
Low relative humidity.
䢇
Material type (The type of material gathering the charge. For example, synthetics are
more prone to static buildup than natural fibers like cotton.)
䢇
The rapidity with which you touch, connect, or disconnect electronic devices.
While you should always take appropriate precautions to discharge static electricity, if you
are in an environment where you notice ESD events, you may want to take extra
precautions to protect your electronic equipment against ESD.
