Electrostatic Discharge Caution
CAUTION! ESD can damage electronic components when they are improperly handled, and can result
in total or intermittent failures. Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing and
replacing components.
To prevent ESD damage:
• Use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes skin contact. Connect the
equipment end of the strap to an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
• Avoid touching the adapter against your clothing. The wrist strap protects components
from ESD on the body only.
• Handle the adapter by its bracket or edges only. Avoid touching the printed circuit
board or the connectors.
• Put the adapter down only on an antistatic surface such as the bag supplied in your kit.
• If you are returning the adapter to Xilinx Product Support, place it back in its antistatic
bag immediately.
