TP3 PVIN test point at PVIN connector.
TP4 GND test point at PVIN connector.
TP5 PWRGD test point.
TP6 PH test point.
TP7 COMP pin test point.
TP8 Analog GND test point.
Test point in voltage divider network at VO. Used for loop response measurements when output voltage
TP9
is set using I
2
C control.
Test point in voltage divider network. Used for loop response measurements when output voltage is set
TP10
using external resistor divider network.
TP11 Output voltage test point at VOUT connector.
TP12 GND test point at VOUT connector.
