Hi there,
I've been wanting to set up my electronics lab for a while now, but it turns out that my power outlet doesn't have proper grounding.
I have an antistatic mat, but without proper grounding, I'm not sure how viable of a lab I have.
What circuit components are most susceptible to damage by static?
Also, someone once told me that antistatic mats didn't need to be properly grounded to work, is that true?
Thanks
