General Safety Instructions
ESD Protection
ESD can damage boards and associated components. Cypress recommends that you perform
procedures only at an ESD workstation. If such a workstation is not available, use appropriate ESD
protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to the chassis ground (any unpainted metal
surface) on your board when handling parts.
Handling Boards
The CY8CKIT-043 PSoC 4 M-Series Prototyping boards are sensitive to ESD. Hold the board only
by its edges. After removing the board from its box, place it on a grounded, static-free surface. Use a
conductive foam pad if available. Do not slide board over any surface.
