0.6 STATIC ELECTRICITY PRECAUTIONS
Before removing the board from its anti-static bag, read this section about static electricity precautions. Static
electricity is a constant danger to computer systems. The charge that can build up in your body may be more than
sufficient to damage integrated circuits on any PC board. It is, therefore, important to observe basic precautions
whenever you use or handle computer components. Although areas with humid climates are much less pron e to
static build-up, it is always best to safeguard against accidents that may result in expensive repairs. The following
measures should be sufficient to protect your equipment from static discharge:
Touch a grounded metal object to discharge the static electricity in your body (or ideally, wear a grounded
wrist strap).
When unpacking and handling the board or other system components, pl ace all materials on an anti-static
surface.
Be careful not to touch the components on the board, especially the “golden finger” connectors on the bottom
of the board.
