GENERAL STATIC-SENSITIVE COMPONENT
INFORMATION HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
1. Do not touch exposed contacts
on any static sensitive
component.
2. Do not slide static sensitive
component across any surface.
3. Do not handle static sensitive
components in areas where the
floor or work surface covering
is capable of generating a
static charge.
4. Wear a static-discharge wrist-
band when working with static
sensitive components.
5. Label all static sensitive de-
vices.
6. Keep component leads shorted
together whenever possible.
7. Handle PCBs only by their
edges. Do not handle by the
edge connectors.
8. Lift & handle solid state de-
vices by their bodies – never
by their leads.
9. Transport and store PCBs and
other static sensitive devices
in static-shielded containers.
10. ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS:
·
Keep workspaces clean and free of any objects capable of holding or storing a static charge.
·
Connect soldering tools to an earth ground.
·
Use only special anti-static suction or wick-type desoldering tools.
