procedure.

3.1

Electrostatic Discharge Warning

CAUTION

Many of the components on the INA230EVM are susceptible to damage by

electrostatic discharge (ESD). Customers are advised to observe proper ESD

handling precautions when unpacking and handling the EVM, including the use

of a grounded wrist strap at an approved ESD workstation.

3.2

Connecting the Hardware

To set up the INA230EVM and connect the two PCBs of the EVM together (that is, the INA230 Test Board

and SM-USB-DIG Platform board), gently slide the male and female ends of the 10-pin connectors

together. Make sure that the two connectors are completely pushed together; loose connections may

cause intermittent operation.
