46 RabbitCore RCM2300
A.5 Conformal Coating
The area around the crystal oscillator has had the Dow Corning silicone-based 1-2620
conformal coating applied. The conformally coated area is shown in Figure A-5. The con-
formal coating protects these high-impedance circuits from the effects of moisture and
contaminants over time.

Any components in the conformally coated area may be replaced using standard soldering
procedures for surface-mounted components. A new conformal coating should then be
applied to offer continuing protection against the effects of moisture and contaminants.
NOTE: For more information on conformal coatings, refer to Rabbit Semiconductor
Technical Note 303, Conformal Coatings.
