• The system board has an accelerometer, which can be broken when several thousands of G-forces are applied. Note: Dropping a system board from a height of as little as 6 inches so that it falls flat on a hard bench can subject the accelerometer to as much as 6,000 G's of shock. • Be careful not to drop the system board on a bench top that has a hard surface, such as metal, wood, or composite. • Avoid rough handling of any kind. • At every point in the process, be sure not to drop or stack the system board. • If you put a system board down, be sure to put it only on a padded surface such as an ESD mat or a corrugated conductive material.

The system board has an accelerometer, which can be broken when several thousands of G-forces
are applied.
Note:
Dropping a system board from a height of as little as 6 inches so that it falls flat on a hard bench
can subject the accelerometer to as much as 6,000 G's of shock.
Be careful not to drop the system board on a bench top that has a hard surface, such as metal, wood, or
composite.
Avoid rough handling of any kind.
At every point in the process, be sure not to drop or stack the system board.
If you put a system board down, be sure to put it only on a padded surface such as an ESD mat or a
corrugated conductive material.
