Performance Specification Summary
A summary of the performance specifications is provided in
. Specifications are given for an input
voltage of 3.6 V and an output voltage of 0.96 V, unless otherwise specified. The TPS650380 is designed
and tested for V
IN
= 2.5 V to 5.5 V. The ambient temperature is 25°C for all measurements and the default
register settings are used, unless otherwise noted.

Setup
This section describes the jumpers and connectors on the EVM as well as how to properly connect, set
up, and use the TPS650380EVM-054 (PWR054-001).
2.1
Connector and Jumper Descriptions
2.1.1
J1 – V
IN
This header is for the positive input supply voltage to the converter. Connect the input supply at this point
if the input current remains below 1 A. If the input current will exceed 1A, use terminal block J16 instead.
The leads to the input supply should be twisted and kept as short as possible to minimize EMI
transmission and reduce inductive voltage droop during a load transient event. This voltage should be
between 2.5 V and 5.5 V.
2.1.2
J2 – S+ and S-
Sense connector for V
IN
. Connect input supply's sense leads to this point. Monitor the V
IN
voltage at this
point.
2.1.3
J3 – GND
This is the return connection for the input power supply of the converter. Connect the input supply at this
point if the input current remains below 1 A. If the input current will exceed 1A, use terminal block J16
instead. The leads to the input supply should be twisted and kept as short as possible to minimize EMI
transmission and reduce inductive voltage droop during a load transient event.
