Test Setup www.ti.com 5 Test Setup 5.1 List of Test Point Location The EVM provides plenty of test points to facilitate the device's evaluation work. All test points are divided into two major groups, primary test points and secondary test points. Their locations are shown in Figure 2. The list below helps users to identify the functions of each test point. Figure 2. Test Point Locations Table 2.
Test Setup 5.2 www.ti.com Equipment DC Input Source: The input source shall be a variable dc source capable of supplying between 40 VDC and 55 VDC with 10 ADC current rating. Multimeters: Multimeters are used to measure the output voltage (DMM1), the input voltage (DMM3), the output current (DMM2) and the input load current (DMM4). Output Load: A programmable electronic load is recommended configurable for constant current mode and capable of sinking 0 to 35 ADC from 8 VDC to 11 VDC.

Test Procedure 6 www.ti.com Test Procedure Setup the EVM with equipment as shown in Figure 3 and following the test set up directions described in Test Setup Section. 6.1 Line and Load Regulation Set up the load to zero amperes and input voltage between 43 V and 53 V. Prior to turning on the power, set up the input source current limit to 6.5 A to avoid potential damage, although the EVM has its power limit typical 450 W. Turn on the input source.
