Static discharge can cause serious damage to sensitive 
semiconductor devices. Avoid handling circuit boards in high 
static environments such as carpeted areas, and when wearing 
synthetic fiber clothing. Always exercise proper grounding 
precautions when working on circuit boards and related 
equipment.
