LECTROSTATIC
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage boards, disk drives and other components. The circuit
board must only be handled at an ESD workstation. If an approved station is not available, some
measure of protection can be provided by wearing a grounded antistatic wrist strap. Keep all
plastic away from the board, and do not slide the board over any surface.
After removing the board from its protective wrapper, place the board on a grounded, static-free
surface, component side up. Use an antistatic foam pad if available.
The board should also be protected inside a closed metallic anti-static envelope during shipment
or storage.
Note
The exterior coating on some metallic antistatic bags is sufficiently conductive to
cause excessive battery drain if the bag comes in contact with the bottom-side of
the EBX-22.

ITHIUM
ATTERY
To prevent shorting, premature failure or damage to the lithium battery, do not place the board on
a conductive surface such as metal, black conductive foam or the outside surface of a metalized
ESD protective pouch. The lithium battery may explode if mistreated. Do not recharge,
disassemble or dispose of in fire. Dispose of depleted batteries promptly.

OUNTING
UPPORT
The single board computer must be supported at all eight mounting points to prevent excessive
flexing when expansion modules are mated and detached. Flex damage caused by excessive force
on an improperly mounted circuit board is not covered under the product warranty. See page 17
for more details.
