Electrostatic discharge hazard

Static electricity can damage electronic components. In general, static electricity can only cause damage and damage to components when a discharge occurs. So do you know what is electrostatic discharge? What harm does electrostatic discharge cause?


Electrostatic discharge refers to the transfer of electrostatic charge between two objects at different electrostatic potentials. There are various ways of transferring, such as contact discharge and air discharge. Electrostatic discharge generally has the following characteristics: high voltage, short duration, low energy, and fast current rise time.


The main forms of electrostatic discharge damage to components are as follows:


    Electrostatic adsorption of dust reduces the insulation resistance of components and shortens the service life of components.


    Electrostatic discharge generates an electromagnetic field that can cause electromagnetic interference to electronic components.


    Electrostatic discharge can break down electronic components and cause electronic components to fail.


    Electrostatic discharge can cause sudden failure and potential failure of electronic components. Sudden failures generally account for 10%, which means that the parts suddenly fail or burn and cannot be used directly. The potential failure generally accounts for 90%, the electrical parameters of the parts will change slightly, the service life of the components is shortened, and it is difficult to detect in the production process, which is more harmful.


In order to prevent electrostatic discharge from causing damage to electronic products, workers who contact electronic components must wear anti-static clothing, anti-static shoes, and wear anti-static gloves to avoid damage to electronic components caused by static electricity.
