Dos and Don’ts
Never ground any output connector.
Never use any grounded probes at the output.
Do not connect your oscilloscope to the output!
This will immediately destroy the driver and the probe!
Do not connect voltages in reverse polarity to the device as there is no built-in
protection circuit.
Do use power-up sequencing: Allow the +5 V supply voltage to fully ramp up before
applying any other voltages (HV; Trigger Input).
Do not use mechanical force on the PCB components as they are fragile. Resulting
damages are not covered by warranty.
Beware: Some lab power supplies cause excessive ringing during powering on and
off. These may damage the unit!
Do keep connecting cables between power supply and driver as short as possible.
