Maxim Integrated 71M65xx ADM51 ICE Safety Notice - Manual (Page 2)

71M651X, 71M652X, 71M653X, 71M654X Energy Meter ICs SAFETY NOTICE
REV 1.5 TERIDIAN Semiconductor 2/2
Additional Safety Measures
If operation of the ADM51 in-circuit emulator is required with a powered meter, it is recommended to isolate the
in-circuit emulator from the host PC, using a USB isolator with separate power supply. USB isolators are available
from various vendors. For example, the UH401-2KV is available at B&B Electronics (
www.bb-elec.com , or
http://www.bb-europe.com/ ). Similar products can be found using the following vendor links:

Isolation may also help eliminate problems stemming from different ground connections of meter Demo Board
and PC. USB isolators supporting USB1.1 are sufficient to control the ADM51. The devices offered by IFTOOLS
and by B&B Electronics are compatible with USB 2.0.
Proper isolation is the sole responsibility of the end user. TERIDIAN cannot be held responsible for
damages or injuries caused by lack of electrical isolation.
