Use a static-free work surface (3M part number 8210 or equivalent) while
handling or working on assemblies containing semiconductors.
Do not remove semiconductors or assemblies containing semiconductors from
antistatic containers (Velo-stat bags) until absolutely necessary.
Make sure power to an assembly is turned off before removing or inserting any
component boards.
Do not slide semiconductors or electrical/electronic assemblies across any
surface.
Do not touch semiconductor leads unless absolutely necessary.
Semiconductors and electrical/electronic assemblies should be stored only in
antistatic bags or boxes.
These guidelines cannot guaranty a 100% static-free workstation, but greatly reduce
the potential for failure of any electrical/electronic assemblies due to electrostatic
discharge.
Electrical safety tests
