I have a question about setup of the working area.
What is the safest (from ESD prospective) working desk surface?
I've been working on this intercom system for a while where I have to deal with two radio modules, which are definitely ESD sensitive - now, I have my circuit on the perfboard, with the radio module next to it, wired in - there are not a lot of ways to secure the module itself (no mounting holes on the PCB), it's designed as a daughterboard. Can't plug it in directly into perfboard as well because of an incompatible pitch.
So, it just lays on the desk surface and naturally touches it. What do I put underneath it? Is simple wooden surface safe enough? Any alternatives?
Thank you,
