Abstract:
When a discrete capacitor was installed in an electronic assembly, a residual charge on the capacitor discharged through an integrated circuit itself and damaged the input circuit of the IC. Run tests to verify that procedures for the handling and storage of capacitors eliminate residual charges, and short capacitor leads just prior to installation.
