while this is true, with just handling these devices between parts bin, it's
still relative, once these are embedded in equipment and installed in a

observatory. You still needed to follow static precautions as far back when
digital logic was first used because the level of static discharge can
potentially increase when in presence of the various building materials in
and around the computer equipment.

if HTL is high threshold logic for Industrial
logic,I would expect
them *NOT* to have static problems, other than over voltage. I think
HTL can run up to about 35 volts, but I have not seen a DATA SHEET on
them for about 25 years. Ben.
Looking at the schematics and datasheets for HTL, I don't see how
their ESD tolerance would be greatly different from DTL and probably
any other bipolar logic family.
