If you’ve ever built a PC, repaired a smartphone, or handled circuit boards, you know how easy it is to overlook one tiny but critical tool: the anti static strap. Also called an esd strap or antistatic wrist strap, this device protects delicate electronics from electrostatic discharge (ESD)—a silent threat that can fry components with 30,000+ volts of static electricity
In mobile phone assembly workshops or chip laboratories, workers always operate on special workbenches—that’s the esd mat. You may wonder why a seemingly ordinary mat can become the “protector” of electronic components? The answer lies in its unique working logic to combat static electricity.
