Board level cameras
NOTICE
•
Board level cameras are delivered without housing. Handle the sensor board
and main board with care. Do not bend the boards. Do not touch the
components or contacts on a board. Hold a board by its edges.
•
Sensor board and main board are sensitive to ESD. To avoid possible damage,
handle all static-sensitive boards and components in a static-safe work area.
Observe the following procedures.
•
Electrostatic discharge: Static electricity can damage the sensor board or the
main board of your board level cameras. To prevent static damage, discharge
static electricity from your body before you touch any of your broad level
camera’s electronic components, such as sensor board or main board. To do
so, use a static-safe work area with static-dissipative mat and wear a
static-dissipative wrist strap. Do not hold any components of your board level
cameras against your clothing. Even when you are wearing a wrist strap, your
body is grounded but your clothes are not.
•
Do not remove the sensor board and main board from its anti-static packaging
unless your body is grounded.
•
ESD shielding: To protect the boards from radiation of other modules or
devices use a special ESD protective housing.
NOTICE
•
Be sure that all power to your board level camera is switched off before
mounting the sensor board or making connections to the camera.
•
Do not connect or disconnect any cables during an electrical storm.
•
Do not use your board level cameras during an electrical storm.
•
To help avoid possible damage to the sensor board or main board, wait five
seconds after power is switched off, before connecting or disconnecting any
cable to the board level cameras.
•
Keep your board level cameras away from radiators and heat sources.
•
Avoid contact of board level cameras with liquids.
NOTICE
•
Avoid any mechanical forces to the board level cameras, the boards and its
components, especially torsional, tensile and compressive forces.
•
To avoid damages of the boards, provide cables with an external pull relief so
that no force is applied to the connectors itself.
NOTICE
•
Always use clean boards.
•
To protect the board level cameras from debris always use in a clean
environment or a protective housing.
