TUSS44x0 EVM for Ultrasonic Sensors User's Guide

WARNING

This EVM contains components that are sensitive to electrostatic
discharge (ESD). Use proper laboratory techniques and equipment
to minimize the chance of an ESD or electrical overstress (EOS)
event.

2.2.2.2

Power Mode Jumper Settings

The BOOST-TUSS44x0 EVM has an alternative power mode selector jumper block (J6). Depending on
the use-case, the assembled EVM can be powered from a variety of single or multiple power sources.

Table 2

lists each power mode with the jumper position of the power mode selector block.
