Preventing Electrostatic Damage

Grounding Methods

Hardware Reference Guide
Electrostatic Discharge
A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor
may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type
of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device.
To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in
static-safe containers.
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they
arrive at static-free workstations.
Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from
their containers.
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive
component or assembly.
There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of the
following methods when handling or installing electrostatic-sensitive
parts:
Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded
workstation or computer chassis. Wrist straps are flexible straps
with a minimum of 1 megohm +/- 10 percent resistance in the
ground cords. To provide proper ground, wear the strap snug
against the skin.
