Notes

A Note presents information 
that we want to re-emphasize, 
either to help you avoid a 
common pitfall or to make you 
aware of operating differences 
between some device family 
members. A Note can be in a 
box, or when used in a table 
or figure, it is located at the 
bottom of the table or figure.

Note 1: This is a note used in a 

table.

This is a standard 
note box.
