Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Warning
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) is the enemy of semiconductor devices. You should always
take precautions to eliminate any electrostatic charge from your body and clothing before
touching any semiconductor device or card by using an electrostatic wrist strap and/or
rubber mat.
Static electricity can harm system boards. Perform service at an ESD workstation and follow proper ESD
procedures to reduce the risk of damage to components. Magma strongly encourages you to follow
proper ESD procedures, which can include wrist straps and smocks, when servicing equipment.
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the
component’s anti-static packaging material until you are ready to install the component in a
computer. Just before unwrapping the anti-static packaging, be sure you are at an ESD
workstation or are grounded.
When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an anti-static container or packaging.
Handle all sensitive components at an ESD workstation. If possible, use anti-static floor pads and
workbench pads.
Handle components and boards with care. Do not touch the components or contacts on a board.
Hold a board by its edges or by its metal mounting bracket.
