ELECTRO STATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)

WARNING: This device is sensitive to electrostatic

discharge.

Although the Freescale Semiconductor accelerometers

contain internal 2kV ESD protection circuitry, extra precau-

tion must be taken by the user to protect the chip from ESD.

A charge of over 2000 volts can accumulate on the human

body or associated test equipment. A charge of this magni-

tude can alter the performance or cause failure of the chip.

When handling the accelerometer, proper ESD precautions

should be followed to avoid exposing the device to dis-

charges which may be detrimental to its performance.
