1.1 Precautions
You can take certain precautions to ensure safety and to prevent damage to your MPS3 board.
This section contains the following subsections:
• 1.1.1 Ensuring safety on page 1-12.
• 1.1.2 Operating temperature on page 1-12.
• 1.1.3 Preventing damage on page 1-12.
1.1.1 Ensuring safety
An on‑board connector supplies 12V DC to the MPS3 board.
Warning
Do not use the MPS3 board near equipment that is sensitive to electromagnetic emissions, for example,
medical equipment.
1.1.2 Operating temperature
The MPS3 board has been tested in the temperature range 0°C to 40°C.
1.1.3 Preventing damage
The MPS3 board is intended for use within a laboratory or engineering development environment.
Caution
To avoid damage to the MPS3 board, observe the following precautions:
• Connect the external power supply to the board before starting the powerup process.
• Never subject the board to high electrostatic potentials. Observe ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD)
precautions when handling any board.
• Always wear a grounding strap when handling the board.
• Only hold the board by the edges.
• Avoid touching the component pins or any other metallic element.
• Do not fit an Arduino Shield, Pmod expansion shield, FMC-HPC expansion board, or configuration
microSD card while the MPS3 board is powered.
