4. Important Notices – Please read carefully prior to use
1. Micropelt Products are prototypes
Micropelt supplies thermoelectric coolers and thermogenerators in package, as well as energy harvesting modules (hereinafter referred to as
“Prototype Products”). The Prototype Products distributed by Micropelt to date are prototypes that have not yet been released to manufacturing
and marketing for regular use by end-users. The Prototype Products are still being optimized and continuously tested. As such, the Prototype
Products may not fully comply with design-, marketing-, and/or manufacturing-related protective considerations, including product safety and
environmental measures typically found in end products that incorporate such semiconductor components or circuit boards.
In addition, the Products have not yet been fully tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices, neither pursuant to part 15 of FCC
rules nor pursuant to any other national or international standards, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency
interference.
2. Use of Products restricted to demonstration, testing and evaluation
Micropelt’s Prototype Products are intended exclusively for the use for demonstration, testing and evaluation purposes.
The Prototype Products must not be used productively. In particular, the Prototype Products must not be used in any safety-critical applications,
such as (but not limited to) life support systems, near explosion endangered sites, and/or any other performance critical systems.
The Prototype Products must only be handled by professionals in the field of electronics and engineering who are experienced in observing good

4. User’s Feedback
Micropelt welcomes the user’s feedback on the results of any tests and evaluations of the Prototype Products. In particular, we appreciate experi-
ence information on use cases with indications of strengths and weaknesses of the Prototype Products, its robustness in operation and its long-
term durability. Please, contact our Micropelt Application Engineering colleagues by email at [e-mail].
Prototype Products, its robustness in operation and its long-term durability. Please, contact our Micropelt Application Engineering colleagues by

Using Micropelt’s Prototype Products without care and in the wrong context is potentially dangerous and could result in injury or damage.
The Prototype Products are designed for use within closed rooms in conditions as apply for electronics such as computers; except when indicat-
ed expressively. Keep the Prototype Products away from open fire, water, chemicals, gases, explosives as well as from temperature conditions
above 100 degrees centigrade, or as indicated in the datasheet of the product. When testing temperature settings at the limits given in the
datasheet for longer term, do not leave the Prototype Products alone but monitor their performance. Take special care to monitor closely when-
ever the Prototype Products are connected to other electrical items and/or electronics.
If the Prototype Products use wireless data transmission technology, therefore they receive and radiate radio frequency energy. They have not
yet been fully tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices, neither pursuant to part 15 of FCC rules nor pursuant to any other
national or international standards, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference. Operation of the
Prototype Products may cause interference with radio communications, in which case the user at his own expense will be required to take what-
ever measures may be necessary to correct this interference and prevent potential damage. Do take special care not to operate the Prototype
Products near safety-critical applications or any other applications known to be affected by radio frequencies.
If any of the Prototype Products elements are separated from the complete module and used independently, it is important to control each
individual system’s power supply to be within their acceptable voltage and/or amperage range. Exceeding the specified supply voltage and/or
amperage range may cause unintended behavior and/or irreversible damage to the Prototype Products and/or connected applications.Please
consult the Prototype Products’ User Guide prior to connecting any load to the Prototype Products’ output. Applying loads outside of the speci-
fied output range may result in unintended behavior and/or permanent damage to the Prototype Products. If there is uncertainty as to the sup-
ply or load specification, please contact a Micropelt engineer.
During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than 70°C. The Prototype Products are designed to
operate properly with certain components above 70°C as long as the input and output ranges are maintained. These components include but
are not limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors. These types of devices can be identified
using the evaluation unit schematic located in the dataheet. When placing measurement probes near these devices during operation, please be
aware that these devices may be as hot as to inflict the risk of burning skin when touched.
Due to the open construction of the Prototype Products, it is the user’s responsibility to take any and all appropriate precautions with regard to
electrostatic discharge and any other prevention measures for safety.
