SLVUBB1 – November 2017

How to Use the TPS65680 Evaluation Module

The TPS65680EVM is an evaluation tool for the

TPS65680 18-Channel Pattern-Programmable Level

Shifter with Overcurrent Protection

for use in large format liquid-crystal display (LCD) display applications

such as TVs and monitors. The TPS65680 supports up to twelve high-voltage clock (GCK) outputs in
charge-sharing or gate-voltage shaping configuration, six high-voltage control outputs for generating start,
clear and reset, and low frequency signals and panel discharge. The evaluation module with its graphical
user interface (GUI) enables the programming of the device from a Microsoft

®

Windows

®

7 or 10 PC and

provides easy access to all 18 outputs, 3 supplies and logic inputs.

This user's guide describes the characteristics, operation and use of the TPS65680 evaluation module
(EVM) and its drive software. This EVM contains TI's 18-channel pattern-programmable level shifter with
overcurrent protection IC TPS65680. The user's guide includes EVM specifications, the recommended test
setup (hardware and software), the schematic diagram, the bill of materials, and the board layouts.

All typical characteristics measurements in the TPS65680 data sheet were done with this evaluation
module.
