2-1 Static-Sensitive Devices

Static-sensitive electrical discharge can damage electronic components. To prevent damage to your system board, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from static discharge.

Precautions

•Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.

•Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic bag.

•Handle the board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips, memory modules or gold contacts.

•When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.

•Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in use.

•For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and the motherboard.

Unpacking

The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage. When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static protected.
