What are you cutting at incoming? Meat? It doesn't matter that your troop are using ESD mats and wrist straps. Your proposed cutting board is an insulator. It a BIG piece of plastic. So, it will retain a charge. So when you move to adopting ANSI

Wayne; Several things. 1.check the vendors and see what black oxide they are using are they the same ? It might be that. 2.You should bake your pcbs before the thermal stress is applied. To remove moisture. At your shop. The proce

So would the proper technique be as follows: 1. Grounded operator picks up PCB from ESD rack and attaches a 1meg(wrist strap cord)shunt to ground to a grounding surface on the pcb. 2. operator sprays conformal coating onto pcb using a spr

Advertisements are not always 100% accurate on technical issues. You don't want instand static discharge. A wrist strap with no resistor could cause that. Therefore put in a current limiting resistor to make the charge dissipate slowly. Does anyone

In the purest sense of ESD control, we would have to say yes, use ESD tape to cover the gold fingers. The gold fingers are connected directly to input/output controls for the card, and, as we all know, when handling boards, we're supposed to avoid c

ok, ok, so I'm not an engineer. I'm a salesguy ( and that's nothing to be ashamed of...) Here's my dilemma. I represent a contract manufacturer who is in the early stages of quoting on "turnkey" assembling of a circuit board for a manufacturer of

What have your experiences been with static meters for maintaining your ESD program? As part of our ESD program I am after an improved method of identifying risk items, or items not performing to specification. We use wrist and foot straps, ESD flo
