Electrostatic Discharge
To prevent damaging the system, be aware of the precautions you need to
follow when setting up the system or handling parts. A discharge of static
electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or
other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life
expectancy of the device.
To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
■ 
Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe
containers.
■ 
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at
static-free workstations.
■ 
Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their
containers.
■ 
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
■ 
Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive
component or assembly.
