Suitability for use — Ampleon products are not designed, authorized or warranted to be suitable for use in life support, life-critical or safety-critical systems or equipment, nor in applications where failure or malfunction of an Ampleon product can reasonably be expected to result in personal injury, death or severe property or environmental damage. Ampleon and its suppliers accept no liability for inclusion and/or use of Ampleon products in such equipment or applications and therefore such inclusion and/or use is at the customer’s own risk.
Applications — Applications that are described herein for any of these products are for illustrative purposes only. Ampleon makes no representation or warranty that such applications will be suitable for the specified use without further testing or modification.
Customers are responsible for the design and operation of their applications and products using Ampleon products, and Ampleon accepts no liability for any assistance with applications or customer product design. It is customer’s sole responsibility to determine whether the Ampleon product is suitable and fit for the customer’s applications and products planned, as well as for the planned application and use of customer’s third party customer(s). Customers should provide appropriate design and operating safeguards to minimize the risks associated with their applications and products.
Ampleon does not accept any liability related to any default, damage, costs or problem which is based on any weakness or default in the customer’s applications or products, or the application or use by customer’s third party customer(s). Customer is responsible for doing all necessary testing for the customer’s applications and products using Ampleon products in order to avoid a default of the applications and the products or of the application or use by customer’s third party customer(s). Ampleon does not accept any liability in this respect.
Limiting values — Stress above one or more limiting values (as defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings System of IEC 60134) will cause permanent damage to the device. Limiting values are stress ratings only and (proper) operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those given in the Recommended operating conditions section (if present) or the Characteristics sections of this document is not warranted. Constant or repeated exposure to limiting values will permanently and irreversibly affect the quality and reliability of the device.
