WARNING: TI intends this reference design to be operated in a lab environment only and does not consider the board to be a finished product for general consumer use.

TI Intends this reference design to be used only by qualified engineers and technicians familiar with the risks associated with handling high-voltage electrical and mechanical components, systems, and subsystems.

Hot surface! Contact can cause burns. Do not touch! Some components can reach high temperatures > 55°C when the board is powered on. Do not touch the board at any point during operation or immediately after operating, because high temperatures can be present.

CAUTION:

Do not leave the design powered when unattended.
