Electrostatic Discharge Information
A discharge of static electricity can damage static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry. Proper
packaging and grounding techniques are necessary precautions to prevent damage. To prevent
electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
■ Transport products in static-safe containers such as conductive tubes, bags, or boxes.
■ Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free stations.
■ Cover workstations with approved static-dissipating material. Provide a wrist strap
connected to the work surface and properly grounded (earthed) tools and equipment.
■ Keep work area free of nonconductive materials such as ordinary plastic assembly aids
and foam packing.
■ Make sure you are properly grounded (earthed) when touching a static-sensitive
component or assembly.
■ Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
■ Always place drives PCB assembly-side down.
■ Use nonconductive field service tools.
