Grounding Considerations
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of potentially hazardous situations associated with the
handling of large sheets of glass which may result in minor or moderate injury or
property damage:
•
Be sure to exercise extreme caution in handling the edges of the sensor with the
copper tape applied. The edge of the tape is very sharp.
For additional EMI shielding, 3M Touch Systems has applied a conductive adhesive
copper tape to three sides of the sensor. This 1/2 inch wide tape is available from 3M as
part number 2800221, cross-reference Chomerics part number CCH-36-101-0050. On
narrow border sensors, the tape is 13/32 inch wide (p/n 36232).
The copper tape overlaps the flex tail polyimide strain relief. It also overlaps at the
sensor corners as shown below:
