PCI-DMC-A01 / PCI-DMC-B01
Step 4: Remove the PCI-DMC-A01 from its packaging while keeping one hand
touching the metallic part of the system case. This action is intended to
discharge (ground) any static electricity in your body through the system case.
Make sure that you do not touch any of the components on the card to avoid
electro-static damage. Put on rubber gloves and pick up the PCI-DMC-A01
card in the manner shown in Fig. 2.1.
Figure 2.1
Shown below are two incorrect ways of handling the PCI-DMC-A01 card. In Fig. 2.2, the
hands are in direct contact with the components of the PCI-DMC-A01 card. Handling
the card in this manner may crush the card components or damage them through static
electricity. In Fig. 2.3, the hand is in direct contact with the golden pins of the
PCI-DMC-A01 card. Handling the card in this manner may lead to static electricity on
the hands discharging through the golden pins, which could damage the IC or other
components.
