TPS65291 EVM User's Guide

The TPS65291EVM is an evaluation module (EVM) for the TPS65291 power management unit (PMU)
device, which is primarily used in gas and water meters. In addition to gas and water meters, the
TPS65291 device can be used in any low-power, portable industrial application powered from a single-cell
(1S) or dual-stacked (2S) Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery.

This document provides a description of how to setup and configure the EVM for operation. This
document also includes hardware documentation, including the schematic, layout and bill of materials,as
well as software instructions for installing the IPG-UI graphical user interface (GUI).
