What
is Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)? - Static electricity
is an everyday phenomenon - there can be few of us who have
not experienced a static shock after walking across a room
and touching the door knob, or on getting out of a car.

ESD Protective Symbol
The ESD Susceptibility Symbol consists
of a triangle, a reaching hand, and a slash through the
reaching hand. The triangle means "caution"
and the slash through the reaching hand means "Don't
touch." Because of its broad usage, the hand in the
triangle has become associated with ESD and the symbol
literally translates to "ESD sensitive stuff, don't
touch."
The ESD Susceptibility
Symbol is applied directly to integrated circuits, boards,
and assemblies that are static sensitive. It indicates
that handling or use of this item may result in damage
from ESD if proper precautions are not taken. If desired,
the sensitivity level of the item may be added to the
label.
