IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Preventing ESD
Wrist Strap
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs)/Printed Circuit Assemblies (PCAs) and Integrated Circuits
(ICs) are sensitive to ESD caused by static electricity. ESD damages electronic parts. When
you are handling sensitive parts:
• Touch an unpainted metal surface to discharge any static electricity buildup.
• Use a wrist strap connected to a grounded metal frame or chassis.
• Place the removed PCBs/PCAs or ICs on a grounded antistatic mat.
• Place the PCBs/PCAs that you plan to return for credit or repair, in antistatic bags.
