Tip: How to make your own spray to prevent static electricity in a carpet. The spark zapper. A static electricity discharge device which is attached to your wrist when working on computers and other static-sensitive electronic items. Technique to test semiconductors for susceptibility to ESD (electrostatic damage) utilizes a piezo-electric gas igniter to produce a fast rise-time, short-duration, high-voltage pulse. Electrostatic discharge (ESD). How to incorporate grounding and other techniques to eliminate potential damage to sensitive electronic devices caused by ESD. Tips on controlling static electricity in a woodshop. Tip on grounding electronic equipment and tools to prevent damage from static electricity. Build Jacob's Ladder devices. Tip on grounding yourself when working with sensitive electronics, without the need for special bracelets. Test circuit makes sure that your static leash (conductive wrist strap) is operating properly. Checking out static electricity. Simple laboratory experiments display the power of static electricity. How to guard against static electricity damage to MOS circuits. Build a fan with NO moving parts. Electrostatic device is for demonstration or science project only. Two dangers are present: power supply generates a lethal 14,000 volts and the fan's operation produces ozone. Model is housed in Plexiglas box. How to handle CMOS integrated circuits and protect them from static electricity. Some tips. Making an experimental electret. Includes a description of the theory. Experimental electro-culture. Stimulating plant growth in a high voltage electrostatic field. More experiments in electro-culture. Stimulating plant growth with static electricity. Includes plans for a device to measure plant responses electrically. Two devices, one portable and one wall-mounted, will harmlessly dissipate static electricity built up in a person walking across carpeting. Taming static electricity. A general discussion on the elimination of undesirable static electricity. How to handle MOS devices without destroying them. How to control static electricity which can harm MOS devices. Circuit capable of detecting potentially destructive static charges that can kill your RAM or other static-sensitive devices. Create a static-free workshop for electronics to help protect delicate components from ESD (electrostatic discharge). Detector circuit for high-voltage static discharge will also show the polarity. Zapping static. Tips on preventing static electricity from damaging your home electronic equipment (computers, clocks, etc.). Useful electronic troubleshooting hints, tips, and homemade tools. Includes voltage sniffer, ground-fault interrupter circuit tester, static electricity grounding setup for use with CMOS circuits, etc. How to generate and control electrostatic electricity. Includes a chart which shows the relative charge (+/-) of electricity generated by various common materials. All about curing static electricity. Electrostatic discharge. How to fight ESD and keep your semiconductor devices from being damaged. An intuitive look at electromagnetic theory. Basics of electromagnetism, how they relate to some common electronic components, and how to interpret some of the complex math symbolism. Part 1. General concepts of electric fields and how they are related to static electric charges. Build an electrostatic battery, properly called an electrophorus. Conduct experiments with it using a straw electroscope. Experimenting with Leyden jars. Duplicate many of the experiments of Benjamin Franklin. Inexpensive hand-powered electrostatic generator creates a charge by rubbing wool cloth against a rotating plastic jar. Plans for Leyden Jar and electroscope also shown. The study of electrostatic effects and convention currents in liquids. A series of experiments that involve the response of dielectric liquids to electric fields of high potential and the reaction to the fields of both conducting and nonconducting particles suspended in the liquid. Electrostatic experiments performed in liquids are easier to observe. How to make electrets, those devices that permanently hold an electrostatic charge. How to capture on film the faint glow emitted when sticky tape is peeled off a surface. The glow is created by numerous miniature sparks that leap between the surface and the tape. How to identify the location and electrical sign of charged patches on a surface. The map patterns (Lichtenberg figures) are revealed by using an assortment of powders (flour, spices, herbs, etc.). Protecting ElectroStatic Discharge Sensitive (ESDS) electronic components from damage caused by static electricity. Some tips. An explanation of why static electricity causes skirts to stick to your legs and what to do to avoid or minimize it. A tip for keeping garments from clinging to stockinged legs. Tip on eliminating static-electric shocks when using a shop vacuum with a plastic hose. | |||||||||
