11. e due to vaporization inside the package Check twice before applying power Board not installed properly in PC 104 stack A common error is to install a PC 104 board accidentally shifted by 1 row or 1 column If the board is installed incorrectly it is possible for power and ground signals on the bus to make contact with the wrong pins on the board which can damage the board For example this can damage components attached to the data bus because it puts the 12V power supply lines directly on data bus lines Overvoltage on analog input If a voltage applied to an analog input exceeds the design specification of the board the input multiplexor and or parts behind it can be damaged Most of our boards will withstand an erroneous connection of up to 35V on the analog inputs even when the board is powered off but not all boards and not in all conditions Octavio AUR User Manual www diamondsystems com Page 3 p1amonp SYSTEMS Overvoltage on analog output If an analog output is accidentally connected to another output signal or a power supply voltage the output can be damaged On most of our boards a short circuit to ground on an analog output will not cause trouble Overvoltage on digital I O line If a digital I O signal is connected to a voltage above the maximum specified voltage the digital circuitry can be damaged On most of our boards the acceptable range of voltages connected to digital I O signals is 0 5V and they ca
