Best Answer

It stands for electrostatic detonation

ANSWER: Eelectrostatic static discharge. What it is? It is a potential of energy ready to be discharged if it find a path. Otherwise it sits there until it does. The source can easily be found on cellophane if ripped suddenly or walking on a dry carpet or sliding on your car seat

Why fail ESD?

If you failed you ESD then the reasons could be:Your teacher did not teach you properlyYou did not work hard enough to passYou a simply not clever enough to passPoor exam thechnique - you did not answer the questions the ESD actuall asked.

What is the voltage in which ESD can affect components?

Most components are designed and built to work at very low voltage. ESD can be of a magnitude of 1000 times greater. So if this voltage can find its way into a circuit it can permanently damage the circuit or worst yet weaken it for a premature failure


Name three tools that you can use to protect a system against ESD as you work on it?

ANSI/ESD S20.20 covers the requirements of an ESD control program. The fundamental ESD control principles are: - Ground all conductors, including personnel - Insulators are high charging and cannot be grounded. Remove all non-essential insulators. Keep all process essential insulators at least 12" from ESDS or neutralize charges with ionizers - Outside an EPA, ESDS are to be packaged in closed ESD shielding bags or covered containers having shielding properties Grounding works great removing electrostatic charges. If opening a computer and handling circuit boards or electronics, the person should be grounded using a wrist strap connected to the ground of an AC electrical outlet or equipment ground. The ESD sensitive items should be placed on a grounded mat. A good tool to have is a Field Service Kit which includes a mat, a cord to ground the mat, and a wrist strap to ground the person. If attachment to the ground of an AC electrical outlet is not possible, one can use equipotential bonding. "When neither AC equipment [Equipment Grounding Conductor] or auxiliary grounds are available, an equipotential bonding system may need to be used. In this situation, all of the items in the system are bonded together so that the charge that resides on the elements will be shared equally and therefore there will be no potential difference between the items. Once this step has been completed it is safe to handle ESD sensitive parts without inducing damage. A real life example of this is often observed in office equipment field service operations. For safety reasons the service technician will often disconnect the AC power cord which detaches the equipment from ground. In order to safely install ESD sensitive products into the equipment, it is necessary to electrically connect or bond together the service technician, the equipment frame and the ESD sensitive product. Once bonded together an ESD event will NOT occur when the technician handles the product or installs it in the office equipment." [ESD Handbook ESD TR20.20-2008 section 5.1.3 Basic Grounding Requirements]


Why is ESD important in the manufacture of circuit boards?

If you do not take ESD precautions when working on a circuit board, or when working with electronic components or assemblies, there is a chance that static charge on your hands or on other places could discharge through one of the components and damage it. Damaging a component means the circuit or assembly or component no longer works correctly, or even worse, will operate normally but will experience a reduced lifetime, ie, fail in the near future.

What ESd stand for?

ESD stands for Electrostatic Discharge. It refers to the sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects caused by contact, an electrical short, or dielectric breakdown. ESD can damage electronic components and devices if not properly handled.

What is the proper use of esd tools?

ESD tools are used to prevent damage to electronic components from electrostatic discharge. Proper use includes wearing an ESD wrist strap or heel strap to ground yourself, working on an ESD-safe work surface, and using ESD-safe tools and equipment to handle sensitive electronic components. It is important to follow ESD precautions to avoid damaging electronic devices.

How does aviation deal with ESD?

An electrostatic-sensitive device (ESD) is any component that can be damaged by common static charges which build up on people, tools, and other non-conductors or semiconductors. Often an ESD-safe foam or ESD-safe bag are required for transporting such components.
