3 Setup

This section describes the jumpers and connectors on the EVM, and how to properly connect, set up, and use 
the TPS7B4255EVM-062. 

Section 3.1

 and 

Section 3.3

 describe the test setup and operation for the TPS7B4255-

Q1 LDO. 

Section 3.2

 and 

Section 3.4

 describe the test setup and operation of the optional load transient circuit.

3.1 LDO Input/Output Connector Descriptions

3.1.1 VIN and GND

VIN and GND are the connection terminals for the input supply. The VIN terminal is the positive connection, and 
the GND terminal is the negative (that is, ground) connection.

3.1.2 VOUT and GND

VOUT and GND are the connection terminals for the output load. The VOUT terminal is the positive connection, 
and the GND terminal is the negative (that is, ground) connection.

3.1.3 EN

EN is a 3-pin header used to enable or disable the TPS7B84-Q1, which in turn enables the TPS7B4255-Q1.

The center pin of the 3-pin header is tied to the TPS7B84-Q1 EN input. When the 2-pin shunt is placed across 
the right two pins of the header, VIN is shorted to EN and the TPS7B84-Q1 is enabled. When the 2-pin shunt is 
placed across the left two pins of the header, GND is shorted to EN and the TPS7B84-Q1 is disabled.

If the TPS7B84-Q1 is not to be used to supply the ADJ/EN signal for the TPS7B4255-Q1, remove jumper J11 
and use TP1 to drive ADJ/EN directly, or a combination of J5, R1, R3, C10 to configure ADJ/EN to be a function 
of the input voltage.
