Introduction
Texas Instruments' TPS7B70EVM-008 EVM helps design engineers evaluate the operation and
performance of the TPS7B70-Q1 family of linear regulators for possible use in their own circuit application.
This particular EVM configuration contains a single low-noise, high-PSRR linear regulator for high-speed
communication systems. The regulator is capable of delivering up to 300 mA to the load with low V

Before You Begin
The following warnings and cautions are noted for the safety of anyone using or working close to the
TPS7B70EVM-008. 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.
