Desco made our first crude version of a wrist strap for an aerospace customer in Southern California. The wrist strap was basically a metal watchband connected to a wire with a ring terminal on it. There were no industry accepted standards, qualification procedures, or certification processes at that time. ESD susceptible components used in electronics…
As we have noted before, humidity is not an effective way to control ESD in an electronics production environment. While the ability to generate static electricity increases when the air gets dryer (the % RH decreases), increased humidity does not eliminate the ESD event entirely or provide protection to ESD susceptible devices . As an…
The Desco Digital Surface Resistance Meter Kit measures resistance point-to-point (Rtt) or surface-to-ground (Rtg) of worksurfaces, flooring systems, garments, and other materials in accordance with ESD Association documents: ESD TR53, ANSI/ESD S4.1, ANSI/ESD S7.1, ANSI/ESD STM97.1 and other documents.
