4–4 Maintenance and Service Guide
Removal and Replacement Preliminaries
provide some protection, but in many cases the discharge
contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt silicon
junctions.
A sudden discharge of static electricity from a finger or other
conductor can destroy static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry.
Often the spark is neither felt nor heard, but damage occurs.
An electronic device exposed to electrostatic discharge might not
be affected at all and can work perfectly throughout a normal life
cycle. Or the device might function normally for a while, then
degrade in the internal layers, reducing its life expectancy.
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.
■ Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until the
parts arrive at static-free workstations.
■ Place items on a grounded surface before removing them
from their containers.
■ Always be properly grounded when touching a sensitive
component or assembly.
