Removal and Replacement Preliminaries 4.4 Preventing Electrostatic Damage Many electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Circuitry design and structure determine the degree of sensitivity. Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some protection, but in many cases, the discharge contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt silicon junctions.
Removal and Replacement Preliminaries 4.5 Packaging and Transporting Precautions Use the following grounding precautions when packaging and transporting equipment: ■ To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe containers, such as tubes, bags, or boxes. ■ Protect all electrostatic-sensitive parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or packaging.
Removal and Replacement Preliminaries 4.6 Workstation Precautions Use the following grounding precautions at workstations: ■ Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding material Table 4-2, “Static-Shielding Materials” (refer to ■ Use a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded work surface and use properly grounded tools and equipment. ■...
Removal and Replacement Preliminaries 4.7 Grounding Equipment and Methods Grounding equipment must include either a wrist strap or a foot strap at a grounded workstation. ■ When seated, wear a wrist strap connected to a grounded system. Wrist straps are flexible straps with a minimum of one megohm ±10% resistance in the ground cords.
Removal and Replacement Preliminaries Table 4-1 shows how humidity affects the electrostatic voltage levels generated by different activities.
