1. Prevention of Electro Static Discharge (ESD) to
Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such
components commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical
ES devices are integrated circuits and some field-effect transistors and semiconductor "chip"
components. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of
component damage caused by electro static discharge (ESD).
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or
semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any ESD on your
body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and
wear a commercially available discharging ESD wrist strap, which
should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying
power to the unit under test.
