Electrostatic Discharge

(ESD) Considerations

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) (for example, caused by touching with
the hand) can destroy semiconductor components. The correct
operation of the complete system is then no longer assured.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) warning

CAUTION

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Destruction of components by electrostatic discharge

Electronic components can be destroyed by electrostatic
discharge. Circuit packs must always be kept in antistatic
covers. Use the original packaging if possible

Use a static ground wrist strap whenever handling
circuit packs or working on the Metropolis ® DMXplore
system to prevent elec trostatic discharge damage to
sensitive components.

All semiconductor components are basically sensitive to electrostatic
discharge. The electrostatic discharge can also affect the components
indirectly using contacts or conductor tracks.

Circuit pack handling precautions

Industry experience has shown that all integrated circuit packs can be
damaged by static electricity that builds up on work surfaces and
personnel. The static charges are produced by various charging effects
of movement and contact with other objects. Dry air allows greater
static charges to accumulate. Higher potentials are measured in areas
with low relative humidity , but potentials high enough to cause damage
can occur anywhere.

Observe the following precautions when handling circuit packs/units to
prevent damage by electrostatic discharge:

• Assume all circuit packs contain solid state electronic components
that can be damaged by ESD.

• When handling circuit packs (storing, inserting, removing, etc.) or
when working on the backplane, always wear a grounded wrist
strap such as the one shown in Figur e 1, Static Control W rist S trap
(page -xxiv) or wear a heel strap and stand on a grounded, static
dissipating floor mat. If a static dissipating floor mat is used, be
sure that it is clean to ensure a good discharge path.

• Wear working garment made of 100% cotton to avoid electrostatic
discharge.

• Handle all circuit packs by the faceplate or latch and by the top
and bottom outermost edges. Never touch the components,
conductors, or connector pins.

• Store and ship circuit packs and components in their shipping
packing. Circuit packs and components must be packed and
unpacked only at workplaces suitably protected against build-up
of charge.

• Observe warning labels on bags and cartons. Whenever possible,
do not remove circuit packs from antistatic packaging until ready
to insert them into slots.

• If possible, open all circuit packs at a static safe work position,
using properly grounded wrist straps and static dissipating table
mats. If a static dissipating floor mat is used, be sure that it is clean
to ensure a good discharge path.

• Always store and transport circuit packs in static safe packaging.
Shielding is not required unless specified.

• Keep all static generating materials such as food wrappers,
plastics, and styrofoam containers away from all circuit packs.
Upon removal from bay, immediately put circuit packs into static
safe packages.

• Whenever possible, maintain relative humidity above 20 percent.

T o reduce the possibility of ESD damage, assemblies a re equipped with
grounding jacks to enable personnel to ground themselves using wrist
straps (Figure 1, Static Control Wrist Strap (page -xxiv)) while
handling circuit packs or working on an assembly. The jacks for
connection of wrist straps are located at the upper right-hand corner of
each assembly and are labeled. When grounding jacks are not provided,
an alligator clip adapter enables connection to bay frame ground.
