Step 1 - Unpack and Inspect the Modules
The modules are shipped in materials which prevent damage from
static. Modules should only be removed from the packaging in an
anti-static area ensuring that correct anti-static precautions are
taken. Store all modules in anti-static envelopes when not in use.
ESD
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. Use a
static-safe work station to perform all work on electronic assemblies. The figure (left)
shows a static-safe work station using two types of ESD protection: conductive table-
mat and wrist-strap combination, and conductive floor-mat and heel-strap
combination. Both types, when used together, provide a significant level of ESD
protection. Of the two, only the table-mat and wrist-strap combination provides
adequate ESD protection when used alone. To ensure user safety, the static-safe
accessories must provide at least 1 M
Ω
of isolation from ground.
DO NOT use these techniques for a static-safe work station when
working on circuitry with a voltage potential greater than 500
volts.
