[hpsdr] ESD Terminations

[FRANCIS CARCIA]

Hi All you smart guys,
  May this lurker grasshopper suggest ESD terminations be added to all FPGA pins leaving a module. 100 K to ground will work fine. I've seen production people blow a number of FPGAs due to ESD by improper handling. How many hams own a static strap? We found this type of failure was easy to detect....just check to see if the FPGA is warm and you could bet money it was zapped. Back under my rock. Frank WA1GFZ
