B
Electrostatic Discharge
To prevent damage to the system, be aware of the following precautions when setting
up the system or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or
other conductor can damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type
of damage can reduce the life expectancy of the device.
To prevent electrostatic damage:
• Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.
• Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free
workstations.
• Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.
• Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
• Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or
assembly.
