I would suggest not getting scotch tape anywhere near any ESD sensitive
components.
I find those bits of black sponge that elecraft package their chips in to
be quite useful... once you've freed one or 2 of them up of course.

Joe,
I would suggest not getting scotch tape anywhere near any ESD sensitive
components.
It develops quite a charge due to the triboelectric effect when you
strip it off the reel, and as a result, if it does not outright kill the
device, it can make it a "walking wounded", working at first,

When you install a component on the printed side of the circuit board, and
then you tip the board over to solder, what are accepted methods to keep the
compenent from falling off? I've read that you should bend the leads to
hold the component onto the board but I was wondering
I just took a certification class at work for IPC-610(D) whihc is for
solder inspection. So, I'm now authorized to answer your question! The
method of bending the leads over is called "cinching" the leads and is
acceptable as long as the component lead does not get close to other
circuit comp
