CAUTION
The circuit module has signal traces and component leads on the bottom of the
board. This may result in exposed voltages, hot surfaces, or sharp edges. Do
not reach under the board during operation.
CAUTION
The circuit module may be damaged by overtemperature. To avoid damage,
monitor the temperature during evaluation and provide cooling, as needed, for
your system environment.
CAUTION
Some power supplies can be damaged by application of external voltages. If
using more than one power supply, check your equipment requirements and
use blocking diodes or other isolation techniques, as needed, to prevent
damage to your equipment.
CAUTION
The circuit module is not a finished product or electrical appliance. The module
does not contain current or voltage thresholds for circuit protection. It must be
used by qualified personnel with additional equipment for evaluation only.
