Figure 10: Enabling BUCKA 

The same operation can also be done via the I

2

C interface panel by selecting the register address, 

the data to send and pressing the 

Send

 button. A read-back can be performed by clicking the 

Read

 

button, see 

Figure 11

. 

 

Figure 11: Middle Right Interface Indicator 

After enabling the BUCKA converter it is possible to monitor the output voltage on the PCB via an 
external multi-meter connected to the VOUT_A pin, as shown in 

Figure 7

. The read-back should 

provide a value close to 1.0 V. If the part is not trimmed the value can slightly differ from the target. 

It is also possible to directly monitor some relevant signals on the PCB, for example, the inductor 
current of each phase.
