Electrostatic Discharge Information
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components.
All work on electronic assemblies should be performed at a static-safe work
station.
Figure 1-10 shows an example of a static-safe work station using two
types of ESD protection:
• Conductive table-mat and wrist-strap combination.
• Conductive floor-mat and heel-strap combination.
Both types, when used together, provide a significant level of ESD protection.
Of the two, only the table-mat and wrist-strap combination provides adequate
ESD protection when used alone.
To ensure user safety, the static-safe accessories must provide at least 1 M
Ω
of
isolation from ground. Refer to Table 1-5 on page 1-21 for information on
ordering static-safe accessories.
W A R N I N G These techniques for a static-safe work station should not be used
when working on circuitry with a voltage potential greater than
500 volts.
