Safety Information
Regulatory Compliance
CY4502 is intended for use as a development platform for hardware or software in a laboratory environment. The board is
an open system design, which does not include a shielded enclosure. Due to this reason, the board may cause
interference to other electrical or electronic devices in close proximity. In a domestic environment, this product may cause
radio interference. In such cases, the user may be required to take adequate preventive measures. Also, this board should
not be used near any medical equipment or RF devices.
Attaching additional wiring to this product or modifying the product operation from the factory default may affect its
performance and cause interference with other apparatus in the immediate vicinity. If such interference is detected,
suitable mitigating measures should be taken.
General Safety Instructions
ESD Protection
ESD can damage boards and associated components. Cypress recommends that the user perform procedures only at an
ESD workstation. If an ESD workstation is not available, use appropriate ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist
strap attached to the chassis ground (any unpainted metal surface) on the board when handling parts.
Handling Boards
CY4502 boards are sensitive to ESD. Hold the board only by its edges. After removing the board from its box, place it on a
grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available. Do not slide board over any surface.
CY4502 boards are expected to be handled with care, especially while connecting and disconnecting to other Type-C
receptacles. Careless handling might cause PCB damage.
CY4502 contains electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive devices.
Electrostatic charges readily accumulate on the human body and any
equipment, and can discharge without detection. Permanent damage
may occur on devices subjected to high-energy discharges. Proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss
of functionality. Store unused CY4502 boards in the protective shipping
package.
