Getting Started

Step 1: Unpack and Inspect the Module

The module is shipped in materials which prevent damage from static. The module should only be
removed from the packaging in an anti-static area ensuring that correct anti-static precautions are
taken. Store all modules in anti-static envelopes when not in use.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy elec-
tronic components. Use a static-safe work station to per-
form all work on electronic assemblies. The figure (left)
shows a static-safe work station using two types of ESD pro-
tection: conductive table-mat and wrist-strap combination,
and conductive floor-mat and heel-strap combination. Both
types, when used together, provide a significant level of
ESD protection. Of the two, only the table-mat and wrist-
strap combination provides adequate ESD protection when
used alone. To ensure user safety, the static-safe acces-
sories must provide at least 1 MΩ of isolation from ground.
DO NOT use these techniques for a static-
safe work station when working on circuitry with a volt-
age potential greater than 500 volts.
