Dear respected group memeber,

1.Should i put my DSK board in the table when i am coding on it or i should put above the antistatic bag?
2. The same day suppose after 4 hours i finsh my work may be after that i will work again. Should i place it like this or need to open the connection and put inside the antistaic bag?And than inside the box?
Because for me if it is not working problem to get new one.

Daniel,

If you want to take proper care of your board then you should place it
on a properly grounded antistatic mat. Wear a wrist strap that is also
grounded. This is the best way in which you handle ESD (electrostatic
discharge) sensitive devices.

To the bare minimum I would recommend that before touching the DSP kit
you ground yourself ( by touching a metal door frame or touching the
chasis of your comp or touching anything that will discharge your
charge )

It is tough to answer your question and it depends how much risk you
wanna take .. I didnt use electro-static mat or anything just grounded
myself so that I dont have charge .. but then again it just depends on
you where you want to draw that line. :-)

I dont think this email helped u but then its just a pointer to bare minimum..
