These days it's not just semiconductors at risk given the tiny geometry of passives. At work we had a work station where we assembled a board with all passive components, so no thought was given to ESD control. We traced a series of mysterious failures to ESD affecting the value of some resistors. Now ESD control is just about everywhere! -Joe Fitzgerald KM1P _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
