Setup

This section describes the jumpers and connectors on the EVM as well as how to properly connect, set
up, and use the LED171596AEVM. The input voltage range for V

IN

is 0 V to 17 V with the input voltage

range for V

L

is 0 V to 6.1 V.

Input/Output Connector Description

•

SEL* (J1) – is provided to allow LED171596A EVM to work with multiple TI Launchpad. The jumper
should be installed between J1-1 and J1-2 for normal operation with EVM GUI (Tiva Launchpad).

•

J1/J3 and J2/J4 – is the TI Launchpad connector interface.

•

ISET (J2) – is provided to configure the max output current setting via fixed resistor or I2C
programmable rheostat. The recommended setting is with a jumper installed between J2-2 and J2-3 for
I2C programmable rheostat control of ISET.

•

IVDD (J3) – is provided to easily measure VDD supply current. The jumper must be installed between
J3-1 and J3-2 for normal operation.

•

VLED_SEL (J4, J5, J6) – creates a star jumper and is provided to select the VLED supply. The jumper
should be installed between J4-1 and J4-2 for normal operation (VLED supplied by TPS62140).

•

VEXT (J7) – is provided to connect an external supply to The LED171596AEVM. Use J7-3 (VIN) and
J7-2 (GND) to supply power to the TPS62140. Use J7-1 (VL) and J7-2 (GND) when using external
supply for VLED power.

•

BEN (J8) – is provided to disable the TPS62140 when using either 5 V or external power connection to
VLED. The jumper should be installed between J8-1 and J8-2 for normal operation (VLED supplied by
TPS62140). When the jumper is removed the TPS62140 output will be disabled.

•

VIN_SEL (J9) – is provided to select either 5V supply from Tiva Launchpad or external power supply.
The connection from Tiva Launchpad is limited by PC USB current limit and should only be used under
low LED brightness/current conditions. The jumper should be installed between J9-2 and J9-3 for
normal operation (external supply).

•

LED_BD (J10) – is the output connector to external LEDARRAY board.

•

EXP_IN (J11) – is the expansion input connector and is provided to allow expansion of up the 4
additional LED171596AEVM (5 total).

•

EXP_OUIT (J12) – is the expansion output connector and is provided to allow expansion of up the 4
additional LED171596AEVM (5 total).
