Safety and
Background

Board Safety:
Caution:
Many of the components used in this workshop are
sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Please ensure
that you are wearing your protective wrist strap at all
times. There will be a warning slide when components
are ESD and heat sensitive.
Clipping leads can sometimes cause them to separate in
a rapid manner that could cause injury. Please take
caution when clipping leads. Wear your safety glasses at
ALL TIMES!

Reading a Resistor:
The resistors in this workshop
have already been organized by
value.
In the event that your resistors
get mixed, please refer to the
chart at the left to classify your
resistors, or use your multimeter.
If you are unsure, don’t hesitate
to raise your hand and ask for
assistance.
