TPS7A39EVM-865 Evaluation Module
1
Introduction
The Texas Instruments' TPS7A39EVM-865 EVM helps design engineers evaluate the operation and
performance of the TPS7A39 for possible use in their own circuit application. This particular EVM
configuration contains a single TPS7A39 device which integrates a positive and a negative monolithic
bipolar LDO to simplify signal chain dual-rail power-supply design. The regulator is capable of delivering
up to 150 mA per channel to the load. For stability, use a 10-µF (or larger) input and a 10-µF (or larger)
output capacitor for each channel of the TPS7A39.
1.1
Before You Begin
The following warnings and cautions are noted for the safety of anyone using or working close to the
TPS7A39EVM-865. Observe all safety precautions.
Warning
Warning Hot surface. Contact may cause burns. Do not touch.
CAUTION
The circuit module may be damaged by overtemperature. To avoid damage,
monitor the temperature during evaluation and provide cooling, as needed, for
your system environment.
CAUTION
Some power supplies can be damaged by application of external voltages. If
using more than one power supply, check your equipment requirements and
use blocking diodes or other isolation techniques, as needed, to prevent
damage to your equipment.
CAUTION
The circuit module is not a finished product or electrical appliance. The module
does not contain current or voltage thresholds for circuit protection. It must be
used by qualified personnel with additional equipment for evaluation only.
