Inge,
Is Electric Field really the issue or is it more of a case of induced
currents?
If I rub a piece of plastic with wool so It has a very high field, and if
I then set an IC on that plastic, will any current flow anywhere?
If not then I do not see how the IC can be damaged.
If I take a 1.5 volt battery and connect it to power and signal pins will
current flow? I think so and the part will probably be destroyed.
So is it field or induced current levels?
Thanks,
Bob Kondner

Electrostatic fields can be induced in high dielectrics and once there, may
be hard to get rid of. As little as 50 VDC can be a problem for IC chips
without enough I/O diode protections. We have had some issues which might
have been caused by such surface charges, but we could never prove it. To be
sure , we demand ESD safe bags. Additional cost negligible.
