ElectroStatic Discharge. Electrical discharge resulting from a charged object earthing through a conductive object.
Electrostatic Discharging. Grounding, or the escape of resting electricity.
Stands for Electro Static Discharge and is defined as a sudden flow of electricity between two objects at different electrical potentials. ESD is a primary cause of integrated circuit damage or failure.
The usually sudden transfer of an ESD voltage potential from one object to another with a lower potential either by inductance or direct contact. Is a rapid flow of electrons between two bodies of unequal charge or between one charged body and ground with an electronic circuit being the path of least resistance between the two. Ouch! But it happens when ESD handling precautions are lacking or overlooked. See Failure Mechanism.
electrostatic discharge] A rapid discharge of static electricity. ESD can damage integrated circuits found in computer and communications equipment.
Electro-Static Discharge. High levels of ESD can damage circuits with sensitive components like mosfet transistors.
This stands for Electro-Static Discharge. When static builds up on a person's body and they touch another object, that charge is passed onto the object. This discharge can harm sensitive equipment and is drained off when the person steps on or touches a Conductive or Static Dissipative mat.
(Electrostatic discharge) The release of static electricity from one surface to another. Because IC devices and assemblies may be damaged by ESD, precautions are taken to eliminate ESD in IC manufacturing and test areas.
Electrostatic Discharge. A transfer of electrostatic charge between bodies at different electrostatic potentials caused by direct contact or induced by an electrostatic field.
The abbreviation for electrostatic discharge. In layman’s terms: an electrical event that takes place when two conductors with different electrical potential make contact. ESD events occur when people walk across various forms of flooring and then they touch or approach computers and sensitive electronic devices. ESD should not be identified with shocks or zaps. Although shocks and zaps are ESD events, they are the result of at least three thousand five hundred (3500) volt discharges. An ESD event as low as 20 volts can disrupt electronic components. Because of this extremely low voltage, the event can go completely undetected.
Electrostatic Discharge (static electricity). The effects of a static discharge can range from simple skin irritation for an individual to degraded or destroyed semiconductor junctions for an electronic device.
See electrostatic discharge.
(ElectroStatic Discharge) Electrostatic discharge that can reach 4000 Volts. Non- protected electrical components will be damaged, if compulsory ANTI-ESD cautions, during maintenance or card repair are not respected (bracelet, binding and antistatic smock).
Short for lectro tatic ischarge, the rapid discharge of static electricity from one conductor to another of a different potential. An electrostatic discharge can damage integrated circuits found in computer and communications equipment.
Electro Static Discharge. That shocking feeling you get when you run on carpet in your stocking feet in the wintertime, and then grab something metal. A charge small enough that you don't feel it, will take out that new "whatever" you just bought yourself with the kids collage fund.
Both people and devices frequently develop electrical charge through the action of static electricity. When contact with another item is made, the built up charge is often "discharged" into this item. This discharge is known as electrostatic discharge (ESD). While ESD voltages frequently exceed 3,000 volts, the current associated with ESD is low making it safe, though at times unpleasant, for humans.
Electrostactic discharge. Static electricty that is dangerous to computer components.
An acronym for, “Electrostatic Discharge”. This is the transfer of charges between objects at different potentials. (Think of when you get “zapped” getting out of your car in winter.)
electrostatic discharge. Discharge of stored static electricity that can damage electronic equipment and impair electrical circuitry, resulting in complete or intermittent failures.
Electro Static Discharge. Static electricity; can severely damage integrated circuits.
Another name for static electricity which can damage chips and destroy motherboards even though it might not be felt or seen with the naked eye.
Electrostatic Discharge is the discharge of built up static electricity. You may not even feel the discharge but ESD can damage chips and ruin motherboards, rendering your computer useless.
Electrostatic Discharge, as although rare, generating sparks and even ignition during refueling.
An electrostatic discharge with a fast risetime, intensive discharges from humans, clothing, furniture and other charged dielectric sources.
Refers to Electro-Static (electrostatic) discharge.
electrostatic discharge. A flow or spark of electricity that originates from a static source such as a carpet and arcs across a gap to another object.
Electrostaic discharge - Current produced by two objects having a static charge when they are brought close enough to produce an arc or discharge.
The discharge of an accumulated electrical charge (static). This can severely damage delicate electronic circuits and you should take steps to prevent this, as explained in " Servicing and upgrading a deskside DPE".
Electrostatic discharge. A transfer of electrostatic charge between bodies of different electrostatic potentials, such as an operator and a piece of electrical equipment. ESD occurs when electronic components are improperly handled and can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. ESD is more likely to occur with the combination of synthetic fibers and dry atmosphere.
ESD (Electro-static Discharge) is a static shock. ESD can potentially destroy IC chips.
Electro-static discharge. The build-up of electrical potential that can cause damage to electronic modules
Electrostatic discharge. Stored static electricity that can damage electronic equipment and impair electrical circuitry when released.
Stands for “electro static dischargeâ€, an electrical effect that may necessitate shielding in some applications. Some special grades of plastic are electrically conductive or dissipative and help prevent ESD.
