5.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the
IVCE-C608/IVCE-C604/IVCME-C604 may result in permanent damage
to the IVCE-C608/IVCE-C604/IVCME-C604 and severe injury to the
user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the IVCE-C608/IVCE-C604/IVCME-C604. Dry climates are especially
susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the
IVCE-C608/IVCE-C604/IVCME-C604, or any other electrical component is handled, the
following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
Self-grounding: Before handling the board, touch any grounded conducting
material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any
conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the
IVCE-C608/IVCE-C604/IVCME-C604, place it on an antic-static pad. This
reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the
IVCE-C608/IVCE-C604/IVCME-C604.
Only handle the edges of the PCB: When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
