A R HS
BOUT O
In 2003, the European Union issued Directive 2002/95/EC regarding the Restriction of the use of
certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS) in electrical and electronic equipment.
The RoHS directive requires producers of electrical and electronic equipment to reduce to
acceptable levels the presence of six environmentally sensitive substances: lead, mercury,
cadmium, hexavalent chromium, and the presence of poly-brominated biphenyls (PBB) and poly-
brominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) flame retardants, in certain electrical and electronic products
sold in the European Union (EU) beginning July 1, 2006.
VersaLogic Corporation is committed to supporting customers with high-quality products and
services meeting the European Union's RoHS directive.
Cautions
E
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-38.
L B
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 used batteries promptly.
