Test Setup
shows the typical parameters for the TPS92612EVM. The typical input voltage range is from 9 V
to 16 V. The full-scale output current of the TPS92612EVM is 40 mA. Users can adjust the output current
by changing the sensing resistor.

Follow these steps for the EVM test setup:
1. Set the voltage of the dc power supply to 12 V and set the current limit to 100 mA.
2. Connect the positive and negative outputs of the power supply to connectors VBAT and GND on the
EVM board.
3. With the default jumper connections, the board should begin operating as soon as the power supply is
turned on. Modify the jumpers for other operating modes.
