ESD blister | 21 January, 2002

hello, One of THT connector we used in production line is packed in ESD blister from the supplier, and then the blister is kept in ESD box. and now the supplier wants to change the ESD blister to plastic material( NON ESD) but still in ESD box.

whether this change is ok in the smt production line? any risk of static electronics?

is anyone who has some experience for this issue?

thanks

Doesn't sound good does it?

Consider using your field meter to determine the charge level generated in handling these connectors. Then you can determine the impact of the charge generated and the best handling approach.
