2-2   Static-Sensitive Devices

Electrostatic-Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To avoid dam-
aging your system board, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following 

measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD.

Precautions

•  Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.

•  Touch  a  grounded  metal  object  before  removing  the  board  from  the  antistatic 

bag.

•  Handle  the  board  by  its  edges  only;  do  not  touch  its  components,  peripheral 

chips, memory modules or gold contacts.

•  When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.

•  Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in 

use.

•  For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent 

conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and 
the motherboard.

•  Use only the correct type of onboard CMOS battery. Do not install the onboard 

battery upside down to avoid possible explosion.

Unpacking

The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage. When 
unpacking the board, make sure that the person handling it is static protected.
