Inputs and Outputs
Make the following input and output connections:
For BTL configuration:
1. Connect audio inputs, either differential or single-ended, to the LIN and RIN RCA phono plugs. To
enable the individual channel shutdown feature, tie RINP and RINN directly to ground (without
capacitors), and OUTPL and OUTNL should work normally.
2. Connect a load (or loads) across the outputs (OUTL+ and OUTL–) and (OUTR+ and OUTR–).
For PBTL configuration:
1. Apply a single input, differential or single ended, to the RIN RCA phono plug and tie LINP and LINN
directly to Ground (without capacitors).
2. Connect a single load from one of the left speaker jacks to one of the right speaker jacks depending on
how the filters are loaded.
2.6
Power Up
1. Verify correct voltage and input polarity and turn the external power supplies ON. The EVM should
begin operation.
2. Adjust the audio source for the correct volume.
