What is ESD?
Static electricity is an electrical charge that is at rest. This is mainly created by an imbalance of electrons that stay on a specific surface, or in the environmental air. The imbalance of electrons (is caused by absence or surplus of electrons) thus causes an electrical field that is capable of influencing other objects at a distance.
Dangers of ESD
Electrostatic Discharge can cause damage / defects to electronic products, electronic components mainly SMD components and failure of PCB and equipment that can lead to further damage and accident. Damage while mobile phone repairing is very common because of Electrostatic Discharge.
Use of ESD Wrist Strap in ESD Prevention
- PCB Manufacturing, Assembly and Rework has to be done in an ESD-Safe Cleanroom Environment.
- Always, ESD Mat, Grounding Cord, Wrist Strap and ESD Tools when Manufacturing, Repairing or Handling Electronic Components and ESD Sensitive Equipment.
- Lay ESD-safe mat on table or work bench and ground it.
- Remove all static producing materials from the area.
- Use ionizers (static eliminator) for ionization (charge mitigating) to neutralize the charge where grounding is not possible.
- Use antistatic bags for packaging PCB when transporting or storage.
