Electrostatic Discharge

A sudden discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor can destroy static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry. Often the spark is neither felt nor heard, but damage occurs. An electronic device that has been exposed to electrostatic discharge (ESD) may not seem to be affected and work perfectly throughout a normal cycle. Although the Notebook may function normally for a period of time, it may have been degraded in the internal layers, reducing the its life expectancy.

Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some protection, but in many cases the discharge contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt silicon junctions.

Generating Static

The table below shows activities that generate static electricity and the associated level of electrostatic voltage.

Typical Electrostatic Voltages

Service Considerations

During the disassembly and assembly of your Notebook, please keep in mind the considerations listed below.

Tool and Software Requirements

Customer serviceable parts only require the following items during disassembly:

•

Small standard screwdriver

•

Small Phillips screwdriver

•

Diagnostics software

Screws

The screws used on the customer removable parts are Phillips. These screws are not interchangeable. If an incorrect screw is applied during the reassembly process, it can damage the unit. Compaq strongly recommends that you keep all screws with their respective parts as they are removed during disassembly. Then replace the screws in their proper locations.

Important: As each subassembly is removed from the Notebook, place it away from the work area to prevent damage.

Note: Screws inside the Compaq Presario 1400 Series Portable Notebooks vary in size and are not interchangeable. During reassembly care must be taken to return the correct screws to their original location. Keep all screws with their respective subassembly during removal.
