BOOSTXL-TPS65218 EVM User's Guide
The BOOSTXL-TPS65218 is a BoosterPack evaluation module (EVM) for programming samples of the
TPS65218D0 power management IC (PMIC) with user-defined values for output voltage, sequence timing,
and other critical parameters. Modifying these parameters using the BOOSTXL-TPS65218 allows for rapid
prototyping and quick time to market when using the TPS65218D0 PMIC to provide power to a variety of
processors and FPGAs.
This document provides a description of how to setup the EVM and re-program the EEPROM memory of
the TPS65218D0 devices using the BOOSTXL-TPS65218 BoosterPack, an MSP430F5529 LaunchPad,
and the IPG-UI software. The steps in this document describe the procedure for programming samples of
the TPS65218D0 installed in the socket of the BOOSTXL-TPS65218 printed circuit board (PCB).
