Chapter 1
¡
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
¡
Keep all components and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in their
antistatic bags until ready for use.
¡
Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from
the antistatic bag.
¡
Do not let components or PCBs come into contact with your
clothing, which may retain a charge even if you are wearing a wrist
strap.
¡
Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components,
peripheral chips, memory modules or contacts.
¡
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
¡
Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags
when not in use.
¡
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides
excellent conductivity between the power supply, the case, the
mounting fasteners and the motherboard.
¡
After accessing the inside of the system, close the system back up
and secure it to the rack unit with the retention screws after ensur-
ing that all connections have been made.
