Evaluation Board User Guide
High Voltage Evaluation Board
Warning: This high voltage evaluation board contains exposed metal carrying lethal voltages when under power. Take
all necessary steps to protect users during operation.
Warnings, Restrictions, and Disclaimers
For evaluation only, in laboratory or development environments, by professionals trained to handle high voltage
devices. This evaluation board is not a finished electrical equipment and not intended for consumer use. It is intended
solely for use for preliminary feasibility evaluation in laboratory or development environments by technically qualified
electronics experts familiar with the dangers and application risks associated with handling high voltage electrical
components, systems, and subsystems. It is not to be used as all or part of a finished end product.
Your Responsibility and Risk. You acknowledge, represent, and agree that:
You have knowledge of all federal, state, and local regulatory requirements that relate to your products and
that relate to your use (and/or that of your employees, affiliates, contractors, or designees) of the evaluation
board for evaluation, testing, and other purposes.
You have full and exclusive responsibility to assure the safety and compliance of your products with all such
laws and other applicable regulatory requirements, and also to assure the safety of any activities to be
conducted by you and/or your employees, affiliates, contractors, or designees, using the evaluation board.
Further, you are responsible to assure that any interfaces (electronic and/or mechanical) between the
evaluation board and any human body are designed with suitable isolation and means to safely limit
accessible leakage currents to minimize the risk of electrical shock hazard.
You must employ reasonable safeguards to ensure that your use of the evaluation board does not result in
any property damage, injury, or death, even if the evaluation board fails to perform as described or expected.
You must properly dispose of or recycle the electronic components of the evaluation board to avoid injury to
any other person.
Key Instructions. It is important to operate this evaluation board within Analog Devices recommended specifications and
environmental considerations per the user guidelines. Exceeding the specified evaluation board ratings (including
but not limited to input and output voltage, current, power, temperature, and environmental ranges) may cause
property damage, personal injury, or death. If there are questions conceramicning these ratings, contact an Analog
Devices representative prior to connecting interface electronics or loads. Any loads applied outside of the specified output
range may result in unintended and/or inaccurate operation and/or possible permanent damage to the evaluation board
and/or interface electronics. Consult the evaluation board user guide prior to connecting any load to the evaluation board
output. If there is unceramictainty as to the load specification, contact an Analog Devices representative. During normal
operation, some circuit components may generate significant heat, which may cause fire, melting, or burns. When placing
measurement probes near these devices during normal operation, be aware that these devices may be hot. As with all
electronic evaluation tools, only qualified personnel knowledgeable in electronic measurement and diagnostics are to use
the evaluation board.
Agreement to Defend, Indemnify and Hold Harmless. You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold Analog Devices, its
directors, officeramics, employees, and their representatives harmless from and against any and all claims, damages,
losses, expenses, costs, and liabilities (collectively, "Claims") arising out of or in connection with any use of the evaluation
board that is not in accordance with the terms of the agreement. This obligation applies whether Claims arise under law
of tort or contract or any other legal theory, and even if the evaluation board fails to perform as described or expected
