Electrostatic discharge
ESD: Electrostatic Discharge. The sudden flow of electricity
between two objects. Caused by imbalance of
electrons between the 2 objects. A field created by tens of volts
between the 2 objects is enough to damage a RAM module.
Walking on a vinyl floor can generate up to 12,000V of static electricity.
ESD abbreviation can also mean “Electrostatic Sensitive Device”

Common Electrostatic Sensitive Devices & actions causing ESD. Devices prone to ESD:
MOSFETS CMOS ICs (Chips) Computer cards (CPU, GPU, etc.) LED, Diodes
Actions causing ESD: Opening a plastic bag. Removing a tape from a roll or a container. Transporting computer components around with trays
or carts. Dry environments (non-humid) increase the possibility
of ESD.

ESD Prevention of working personnel Methods to remove
charge from the human body: Touching metallic objects. Wrist band. Antistatic garment.

Other methods to prevent ESD when working with electronic equipment Avoid touching connections
or pins. Ground all test equipment. Use Antistatic mat:
Made a low resistance material (10ΚΩ to 100ΜΩ) that is grounded. It allows slow discharging.
Use Antistatic Agent: A compound used that makes
the surface of a material conductive, thus reducing or preventing ESD. Usually absorbs moisture from the air.
They are often added to jet fuels.

ESD Preventing Materials Conductive Materials:
Materials with resistance between 1ΚΩ & 1ΜΩ/m2
Dissipative Materials: Materials with resistance between 1ΜΩ /m2 & 1ΤΩ /m2
Shielding Materials: Materials that attenuate current and electric fields.

Static electricity on the aircraft
The aircraft picks static charges from rain, cloud, snow etc. (precipitation static)
• Strong charges developed between different parts of the plane can break down the insulator between them.
• Problems caused by static electricity on the aircraft:Material damage, Corrosion, Electromagnetic interference etc.

Corona Threshold and Static electricity control
The Corona Threshold: High velocity gasses exiting the engine Static electricity dissipates surrounding atmosphere from sharp edges EMF.
Solutions to control static electricity: Bonded (i.e. interconnection) of electronic
equipment. Wickes (to eliminate static electricity dissipation
from sharp edges).
