Electrostatic Discharge Protection
Electrostatic Discharge Protection
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. The product is
shipped in materials that prevent damage from static, and should only be removed from the
packaging in an anti-static area ensuring that the correct anti-static precautions are taken.
Two types of ESD protection are listed below. Purchase acceptable ESD accessories from your
local supplier.
• Conductive table-mat and wr
ist-strap combination
• Conductive floor-mat and heal-strap combination
Both types, when used together, provide a significant level of ESD protection. To ensure user
safety, static-safe accessories must provide at least 1 MΩ of isolation from ground.
These techniques for a static-safe work station should not be used
when working on circuitry with a voltage potential greater than 500
volts.
