“ElectrostaticallySensitive(ES)Devices”orESDs.ExamplesoftypicalESDsare:integratedcircuits,someeldeffect
transistors,andsemiconductor“chip”components.Thetechniquesoutlinedbelowshouldbefollowedtohelpreducethe
incidenceofcomponentdamagecausedbystaticelectricity.
CAUTION
Besurenopowerisappliedtothechassisorcircuit,andobserveallothersafetyprecautions.
