Precautions 1-3 ESD Precautions Electrostatically Sensitive Devices (ESD) Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damagedeasily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive Devices(ESD). Examples of typical ESD devices are integrated circuits and some field-effect transistors and semiconductor chip components. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity. CAUTION : Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions. (8) Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ESD devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ESD device). (1) Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging wrist strap device, which should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test. (2) After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ESD devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or exposure of the assembly. (3) Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ESD devices. (4) Use only an anti-static solder removal devices. Some solder removal devices not classified as "anti-static" can generate electrical charges suffi cient to damage ESD devices. (5) Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESD devices. (6) Do not remove a replacement ESD device from its protective package until immediately before your are ready to install it.(Most replacement ESD devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparable conductive materials). (7) Immediately before removing the protective materials from the leads of a replacement ESD device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed. 1- Samsung Electronics
