Working at an ESD workstation, make sure that any
wrist straps, bootstraps, or mats are connected referencing the user to earth
ground before power is applied to the EVM. An electrostatic smock and safety
glasses should also be worn.
Prior to connecting the DC input source,
V12V_IN, it is advisable to limit the source current from
V12V_IN to 5.0-A maximum. Make sure V12V_IN is
initially set to 0 V and connected as shown in Figure 3-3.
