B.1 ESD denition
What does ESD mean?
Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESDs) are individual components, integrated circuits, modules or
devices that may be damaged by either electrostatic elds or electrostatic discharge.
NOTICE
Damage caused by electric elds or electrostatic discharge
Electric elds or electrostatic discharge can result in malfunctions as a result of damaged
individual parts, integrated circuits, modules or devices.
• Only pack, store, transport and send electronic components, modules or devices in their
original packaging or in other suitable materials, e.g conductive foam rubber or aluminum
foil.
• Only touch components, modules and devices if you are rst grounded by applying one of
the following measures:
– Wearing an ESD wrist strap
– Wearing ESD shoes or ESD grounding straps in ESD areas with conductive ooring
• Only place electronic components, modules or devices on conductive surfaces (table with
ESD surface, conductive ESD foam, ESD packaging, ESD transport container).
B.2 Electrostatic charging of individuals
Any person who is not conductively connected to the electrical potential of the environment can
accumulate an electrostatic charge.
This gure indicates the maximum electrostatic charges that can accumulate on an operator
when he comes into contact with the indicated materials. These values comply with the
specications in IEC 801-2.
