Board overview
The 8MPLUSLPD4-PEVK consists of two separate boards: 8MPLUSLPD4-PWR (CPU board that supports power measurement)
and 8MPLUS-BB (Base Board). It is software-compatible with the 8MPLUSLPD4-EVK. The 8MPLUSLPD4-PEVK board can
measure 27 power rails, including 7 power rails that have dual-range options, for low-power measurement. All PHY power rails
are separated for measurement, so you can conveniently obtain the power consumption for each analog PHY.
2.1 Power rails
lists the detailed information of the tested rails.
