HAN DLING OF ELEC TRO STATIC-SENSITIVE SEMI CON DUC TOR
DE VICES
Certain semiconductor devices used in the equipment are liable to damage due
to static voltage. Observe the following precautions when handling these
devices in their unterminated state, or sub-units containing these devices:
Persons removing sub-units from an equipment containing these devices must
be earthed by a wrist strap and a resistor at the point provided on the
equipment.
Soldering irons used during the repair operations must be low voltage types
with earthed tips and isolated from the mains voltage by a double insulated
transformer.
Outer clothing worn must be unable
to generate static charges.
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) fitted with these devices must be stored and
transported in anti-static bags.
Fit new devices in a special handling area.
