Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

ESD Prevention

To avoid damage to the system, take necessary preventive measures when you
install the system or pick up and place components. The static electricity that flows
from fingers or other conductors may damage the mainboard or other ESD-
sensitive devices. The damage caused by static electricity will shorten the expected
service life of the preceding device.
To avoid damage from ESD:
Pack the product in an anti-static package to prevent the product from direct

contact with fingers during transportation and storage.
Pack ESD-sensitive components in their respective packages for storage before

you expose them to a work area that is not affected by ESD.
Put a component on a grounded surface before you take it out of the package.

Do not touch the pins, wires, or circuits.

Take grounding measures when you touch ESD-sensitive components or devices.

Anti-ESD Grounding Methods

Multiple grounding methods are available. When you pick up, place, or install an
ESD-sensitive component, you can ground the component in one or more of the
following methods:
Use a wrist strap that is connected to a grounded work area or computer

chassis by using a ground wire. The wrist strap must be scalable. The
resistance of the ground wire must be at least 1 megohm ±10%. For anti-ESD
grounding, make sure that the wrist strap is in close contact with your skin
when you wear the wrist strap.
In a standing work area, use heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps. Before you

stand on a conductive floor or a static dissipative mat, wear a strap on your feet.
Use conductive onsite maintenance tools.

Use a static dissipative folding tool pad and a portable onsite maintenance

toolkit.
If none of the preceding recommended grounding devices are available, contact
an authorized dealer to install a grounding device.
To learn more information about ESD or product installation, contact an authorized
dealer.
