#99681 - driving ribboncabel - ESD precautions
Hi guys and girls.

I am working on a new gizmo, wich consist of a µc (atmel P89C51RC2) a LC display and some glue electronics. This is build on a 4 layer PCB and housed in a plastic box on a pole, like the one you see as a part of the cashregister in almost any shop these days. This box/pole is mounted on the machine. The machine is made of iron, welded and/or bolted together. It contains motors and switches, and the last part of the electronics: Mainsfilters, mainstransformer, rectifier and 3 relays to control the motors.

I will connect these two parts with a ribboncabel and a single 1 mm2 (yellow/green) wire for ground.

Now the question: Is a 74HC14 sufficient to drive the ribboncable? The relays got their own driver and associated protection located next to them, so I can drive them with a std. "one". This "one" however must have enough drivingforce to charge/discharge the ribboncable, and to withstand any noise created by the nasty outside world. Electrostatic discharge, and so on.

Any tip, trick and comment apreciated!

Ha' en god weekend
