Agilent 87130A Operating and Service Manual 1-9
Introducing the 87130A Attenuator/Switch Driver
Before Installing the Attenuator/Switch Driver
Reducing ESD
Damage
To help reduce the amount of ESD damage that occurs during installation,
testing, or servicing instruments use the following guidelines:
• Be sure that all instruments are properly earth-grounded to prevent
buildup of static charge.
• Personnel should be grounded with a resistor-isolated wrist strap before
touching the center pin of any connector and before removing any
assembly from the instrument.
• Before connecting any coaxial cable to an instrument connector for the
first time each day, momentarily ground the center and outer conductors
of the cable.
• Handle all PC board assemblies and electronic components only at
static-safe work stations.
• Store or transport PC board assemblies and electronic components in
static-shielding containers.
• PC board assembly edge-connector contacts may be cleaned by using a
lintfree cloth with a solution of 80% electronics-grade isopropyl alcohol
and 20% deionized water. This procedure should be performed at a
static-safe work station.
