Electrostatic Discharge
To prevent damage to the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow
when setting up the system or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a
finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other static-sensitive
devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device.
To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
• 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 make sure you are properly grounded when touching a
static-sensitive component or assembly.
