> ### A.2 Conformal Coating

> The area around the crystal oscillator and the battery backup circuit on the RabbitLink has had the Dow Corning silicone-based 1-2620 conformal coating applied. The conformally coated area is shown in Figure A.2-1. The conformal coating protects these high-impedance circuits from the effects of moisture and contaminants over time.

> Figure A.2-1 RabbitLink Areas Receiving Conformal Coating

> Any component in the conformally coated area may be replaced using standard soldering procedures for surface-mount components. Apply a new conformal coating afterwards for continued protection against the effects of moisture and contaminants.

> NOTE | For more information on conformal coatings, refer to Rabbit Semiconductor Technical Note 303, "Conformal Coatings."
