A field technician is preparing to install a replacement motherboard into a desktop chassis at a customer's desk. Which of the following procedures should the technician follow to best protect sensitive electronic components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage during assembly?
- Attach an ESD wrist strap's alligator clip to an unpainted metal portion of the computer chassis.Cevap
- BPlace the replacement motherboard directly on the outer surface of its protective anti-static bag while installing the CPU and RAM.
- CTouch the plastic outer housing of the monitor periodically during installation to discharge accumulated body static.
- DMaintain continuous contact with painted outer side panels of the desktop enclosure while handling internal system boards.
Cevap
Attaching an ESD wrist strap's alligator clip to an unpainted metal portion of the computer chassis equalizes electrical potential and safely prevents ESD damage.
Attaching the ESD wrist strap to an unpainted metal surface ensures a direct electrical connection to the chassis, equalizing static potential between the technician and the system chassis, thereby preventing static charges from damaging microprocessors and surface-mount components.
