3. General Operational Restrictions
3.1 Evaluate Only a Single Device at a Time
Note:
It is strongly recommended to populate only one device on the Si5xxUC-EVB board at a time. Carefully read the next paragraph
for important information.
The Si5xxUC-EVB supports evaluation of a single device in one of three different DUT locations. Device sizes supported are 5mm x
7mm, 3.2mm x 5mm, or 2.5mm x 3.2mm. All device locations can support 4, 6, or 8 pin configurations, but only one device at a time
should be installed in any one of the three locations on the Si5xxUC-EVB. This restriction is made to ensure no problems will occur due
to potential signal crosstalk, power supply over-loading/coupling, or signal contention/loading between multiple devices. Do not simply
remove power from a mounted device in an attempt to place it in an “unused”, but still mounted, state. Board control signals are wired in
parallel to all 3 locations and a non-powered device may load control signals to a powered device under test. Please follow this “one
device at a time” recommendation and only populate one device at a time.
