Electrostatic discharge (ESD) information
Generating static
Different activities generate different amounts of static electricity through electrostatic discharge
(ESD). Static electricity increases as humidity decreases.
CAUTION:
Static electricity in the amount of 700 volts might degrade a product.

Preventing ESD
equipment
damage
Many electronic components are sensitive to ESD. Circuitry design and structure determine the
degree of sensitivity. The following packaging and grounding precautions are necessary to prevent
damage to electric components and accessories:
●
Transport products in static-safe containers such as tubes, bags, or boxes, to avoid hand
contact.
●
Protect electrostatic parts and assemblies with nonconductive or approved containers or
packaging.
●
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free stations.
●
Place items on a grounded surface before removing them from containers.
●
When handling or touching a sensitive component or assembly, ground yourself by touching
the chassis.
●
Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
●
Place reusable electrostatic-sensitive parts from assemblies in protective packaging or
nonconductive foam.
