Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components
in the product. To prevent ESD, observe these precautions when
directed to do so:

• Use a Ground Strap. Wear a grounded antistatic wrist strap to

discharge the static voltage from your body while installing or
removing sensitive components.

• Use a Safe Work Area. Do not use any devices capable of

generating or holding a static charge in the work area where you
install or remove sensitive components. Avoid handling sensitive
components in areas that have a floor or benchtop surface capable
of generating a static charge.

• Handle Components Carefully. Do not slide sensitive

components over any surface. Do not touch exposed connector
pins. Handle sensitive components as little as possible.

• Transport and Store Carefully. Transport and store sensitive

components in a static-protected bag or container.
