  • Do I have to attend the electrostatic loading and ground potential differences?

    Yes. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage a sensitive electronic component. Under several conditions static electricity and ground potential differences between the UAD and the user's target hardware can build up high voltages - over 10000 Volts (10 kV) in some cases. The electrostatic discharge of this build-up voltage results in fast high current waveforms and fast magnetic (H-field) or electrostatic (E-field) disturbances ...

  • The communication to the target goes down often. The UAD is used via USB interface.

    The USB communication seems to be instable. The UAD is specified to use the USB 2.0 High-Speed-Mode (480MBit/s). No-Name cables with USB 2.0 marking, but with length over 3m or small diameter under 5 mm are not suitable and result in communication aborts. The USB cables delivered within the UAD package are verified for compatibility with USB 2.0 High-Speed-Mode ...
