EVALUATION BOARD

EQUIPMENT

• DC power supply (350 V to 400 V, 400 W)

• Electronic load (25 A/300 W)

• Oscilloscope with differential probes

• PC with ADP1046 GUI installed

• Precision digital voltmeters (HP34401or equivalent) for

measuring dc voltage

SETUP

Do not connect the USB cable to the evaluation board until the

software has finished installing.

1. Install the ADP1046 software by inserting the installation

CD. The software setup starts automatically, and a guided

process installs the software as well as the drivers for the

USB-to-I

C adapter, which allows communication of the

GUI with the IC.

2. Insert the daughter card into Connector J5, as shown in

Figure 6.

3. Ensure that the PSON switch (SW1 on schematic; see

Figure 76) is turned to the off position. It is located on the

bottom left half of the board.

4. Connect one end of the USB dongle to the board and the

other end to the USB port on the PC using the USB-to-I

interface dongle. The white LED, D21, should turn on.
