COMMENTS
This instrument is not unique in its content of EDS (electrostatic discharge) sensitive components. Most
modern electrical designs contain components that utilize metal oxide technology (NMOS, CMOS, etc.).
Experience has proven that even small amounts of static electricity can damage or destroy these devices.
Damaged components, even though they appear to function properly, exhibit early failure.
