Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
Static electricity can harm delicate components inside the system. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from
your body before touching any of the electronic components, such as the microprocessor. This can be done by periodically
touching an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
The following steps can help to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
1. When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the component from the antistatic
packing material until ready to install the component in the system. Just before unwrapping the antistatic packaging, be
sure to discharge static electricity from your body.
2. When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging.
3. Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor pads, workbench pads, and an antistatic
grounding strap.
