The charge stored in the capacitance of you with respect to ground is the charge that can rush out and kill ICs if you touch their pins, or can rush out and tweak your finger tip if you touch a filing cabinet. Leaking out (relatively) slowly through a 1Mohm resistor or more to ground is a much nicer process for all involved. | |

Apr 27, 2016 at 11:29 | comment | added | Dogus Ural | i didnt get the capacitor analogy, is antistatic mat supposed to protect me or the circuit ? | |
