The Problem
Static Electricity - Static electricity is a major problem for today's
high-tech industries. Billions of dollars are lost each year because of damage
caused by static electricity during the manufacture, assembly, use and repair
of micro-electronic components and equipment.
It's everywhere. In
Everyone.
Static electricity occurs anytime two dissimilar objects come together and
then separate. In our ordinary everyday movements we can build up thousands of
volts of electricity. It can take fewer than a hundred volts to degrade or
destroy micro-electronic devices. Often the degraded area of a component is so
difficult to detect that it can pass quality control tests. In fact, industry
analysts estimate that for every one catastrophic damage incident there are
nine or tem more that become reliability problems in the field. That's why
manufacturers of electronic devices have learned that a small investment in
static-control products and programs can help to provide higher production
yields and prevent product degradation
