ESD Safe Workstations
An ESD Safe Workstation is a designated area designed to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) that can damage sensitive electronic components. These workstations typically include ESD-safe surfaces, grounding straps, and specialized tools to minimize static electricity buildup.
The key components of an ESD Safe Workstation include an ESD mat, which provides a conductive surface, and grounding points that connect to the earth. Proper use of these elements helps protect devices like integrated circuits and semiconductors during assembly and testing, ensuring reliability and longevity in electronic products.
