PGAxxxEVM-037 Pressure Sensor Signal Conditioner Evaluation Module

Figure 2. PGA302EVM-037 EVM Bottom Board Sections

The PGAxxxxEVM-037 is divided into the following sections:

1. Power

a. External power connectors

b. Onboard regulators

2. OWI Communication

3. MSPR430F5510 Microcontroller

4. External resistive bridge interface

5. Resistive bridge emulator

6. Programming circuitry

NOTE:

Pictured is a PGA302EVM-037 which does not include additional circuitry for firmware

programming and SENT communication that is present on the PGA90xEVM-037. The
PGA90xEVM-037 also includes a socket instead of a soldered down device.
