ANPEC reserves the right to make changes to improve reliability or manufacturability without notice, and advise
customers to obtain the latest version of relevant information to verify before placing orders.
Note : For 5cm and below DC fan application, grade A/AT device is recommended to avoid magnetic
sensitivity problem. For above 5cm DC fan application, grade B device is acceptable for most cases.
