1-3 Static Electricity Precautions
1. Some semi-conductive ("solid state") devices are
vulnerable to static electricity. These devices are known
as ESD. ESD includes the integrated circuit and the field
effect transistor. To avoid any materials damage from
electrostatic shock, follow the instructions described
below.
2. Remove any static electricity from your body by
connecting the earth ground before handling any
semi-conductive parts or assemblies. Alternatively,
wear a dischargeable wrist-belt.
(Make sure to remove any static electricity before
connecting the power source - this is a safety instruction
for avoiding electric shock)
3. Remove the ESD assembly and place it on a conductive
surface such as aluminum foil to prevent accumulating
static electricity.
4. Do not use any Freon-based chemicals.
Such chemicals will generate static electricity that
causes damage to the ESD.
5. Use only grounded-tip irons for soldering purposes.
6. Use only anti-static solder removal devices.
Most solder removal devices do not support an
anti-static feature. A solder removal device without an
anti-static feature can store enough static electricity to
cause damage to the ESD.
7. Do not remove the ESD from the protective box until the
replacement is ready. Most ESD replacements are
covered with lead, which will cause a short to the entire
unit due to the conductive foam, aluminum foil or other
conductive materials.
8. Remove the protective material from the ESD
replacement lead immediately after connecting it to the
chassis or circuit assembly.
9. Take extreme caution in handling any uncovered ESD
replacements. Actions such as brushing clothes or lifting
your leg from the carpet floor can generate enough static
electricity to damage the ESD.
