BUF12800EVM Evaluation Board and Software Tutorial
2.1 Theory of Operation for BUF12800 Hardware
Figure 2 shows the BUF12800 test board hardware setup. The functionality of the PCB is such that it
provides connections to the I
2
C and general-purpose inputs/outputs (GPIOs) on the USB DIG Platform
board. It also provides connection points for external connections of the shunt voltage, bus voltage, and
ground.
