Electro-Static
Discharge
Precautions
Integrated
circuit cornponents in these
products
can
be
damaged by electro-static discharge.
It
doesn't
make any difference
whether
the
Ie's
are installed on a
printed
circuit
board
or
laying
on a table.
Static
charges
can
build
up
in people
to
a
potential
of several
thousand
volts by
simply walking across a room.
Integrated
circuits in
the
computer,
bus
expander, accessories
and
peripherals
can
be
protected
by
setting
up
a
static
free workstation
and
wearing clothes
that
do
not
hold
static
charges before
handling any
of
the
computer's
assemblies.
This
includes
the
internal assemblies as optional
assemblies for
the
backplane.
When you need
to
rernove or install
an
assembly
or
part,
remove power from
the
product
first.
With
the
static
free workstation in place, touch
the
backplane sheet
metal
with your fingers
before touching
the
printed
circuit assembly.
If
the
assembly is
not
going
to
be
re-installed,
place
the
assembly into an
anti-static
bag
and
set it aside.
Following these precautions will
extend
the
life of
the
computer
products
you maintain.
