Electrostatic sensitive devices
Definition
All electronic modules are equipped with highly integrated ICs or components.
Due to their design, these electronic elements are highly sensitive to overvoltage,
and thus to any electrostatic discharge.
E
lectrostatic
S
ensitive
D
evices are frequently referred to by the abbreviation
ESD. This is also the international abbreviation for such devices.
ESD modules are identified by the following symbol:

Caution
Modules susceptible to electrical discharge can be destroyed by voltages that fall
far below the limits of human perception. These voltages even occur if you touch
a component part or electrical connections of a module without being electrosta-
tically discharged. The damaged caused on a module by an overvoltage is not
usually recognized immediately, but only becomes evident after a longer period
of operation.
