Figure 5-2. TPS53513EVM-587 Top Layer for Test Setup
5.2.1 Input Connections
1. Prior to connecting the DC input source (V
IN
), it is advisable to limit the source current from V
IN
to 10 A
maximum. Make sure V
IN
is initially set to 0 V and connected as shown in
2. Connect a voltmeter V1 at TP1 (V
IN
) and TP2 (GND) to measure the input voltage.
5.2.2 Output Connections
1. Connect Load to J3 and set load to constant resistance mode to sink 0 A
DC
before V
IN
is applied.
2. Connect a voltmeter V2 at TP7 (V
OUT
) and TP9 (GND) to measure the output voltage.
