Make it a habit always to first touch the metal surface of one of the USB connectors on the OEM
Base Board (which the Display Expansion Board is connected to) for a few seconds with both
hands before touching any other parts of the boards. That way, you will have the same potential
as the board and therefore minimize the risk for ESD.
Note that Embedded Artists does not replace boards that have been damaged by ESD.
2.3 General Handling Care and Usage
Handle the Display Expansion Board with care. The board is not mounted in a protective case/box and
is not designed for rough physical handling. Connectors can ware out after excessive use. The board
is designed for evaluation and prototyping use, and not for integration into consumer or
industrial end-products.
2.4 CE Assessment
Note that the Display Expansion Board is classified as a component and is hence not CE marked
separately. It can perform different functions in different integrations and it does not have a direct
function. It cannot work independently. It is therefore not in the scope of the CE Directive.
The board is an evaluation board (not for integration into an end product) but it has been designed to
meet class A level when connected together with the OEM Base Board. In a domestic environment this
product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate
measures.
2.5 Other Products from Embedded Artists

cost and developed for prototyping / development as well as for OEM applications. Modifications for
OEM applications can be done easily, even for modest production volumes. Contact Embedded Artists
for further information about design and production services.
2.5.1 Design and Production Services
Embedded Artists provide design services for custom designs, either completely new or modification to
existing boards. Specific peripherals and I/O can be added easily to different designs, for example,
communication interfaces, specific analog or digital I/O, and power supplies. Embedded Artists has a
broad, and long, experience in designing industrial electronics in general and with NXP’s
LPC1000/2000/3000/4000 microcontroller families in specific. Our competence also includes wireless
and wired communication for embedded systems. For example IEEE802.11b/g (WLAN), Bluetooth™,
ZigBee™, ISM RF, Ethernet, CAN, RS485, and Fieldbuses.
