TPS389xA-xP-EVM047 Evaluation Modules
This user’s guide describes the characteristics and operational use of the TPS389XA-XP-EVM047
Evaluation Module (EVM) for engineering demonstration of the TPS3897A and TPS3896P supervisors
(TPS3897A-6P-EVM047), the TPS3897P and TPS3896A supervisors (TPS3897P-6A-EVM047), the
TPS3898A and TPS3895P supervisors (TPS3898A-5P-EVM047), or the TPS3898P and TPS3895A
supervisors (TPS3898P-5AEVM047). These EVMs are fully assembled and tested platforms for evaluating
the performance of the TPS389xA-xP family of supervisory circuits. Any one EVM can be manually
modified to easily accommodate alternative supervisor ICs of this same family. This TPS389XA-XP family
are adjustable supervisors in an ultra small package, that can monitor voltages greater than the 500 mV
sense voltage, whose accuracy is better than 1%. This user’s guide includes setup instructions,
schematic, bill of materials (BOM), layout, and test results for a typical SVS circuit on the EVM
