Vic, I am not sure whether you are providing a product or a service. Agencies control products;-- I am not aware that they are controlling services in the ITE product category.
However, assuming that you want to perform "due diligence" with respect to what you are providing to your customers, I believe the question should be asked,-- how are your customers using these "Evaluation Boards" ? Are these boards just a convenient place to mount your chips? Is there any circuitry on these boards that enables your customers to run some tests? And if there is such circuitry, what would be the test platform????? Assuming that the test platform is either a PC or some test and measurement equipment, and your circuitry is designed for that specific platform, and you want to encourage your customers to buy your chips rather than someone else's because they are so good and, most important, they meet the applicable EMC limits and safety requirements, then- * you test your Evaluation Boards in that platform to the appropriate standards. However, I am not sure that legally you are required to do all of the above. I hope that someone else can shed some better wisdom on this very interesting subject.
