Chapter 2. Installation and Operation
2.1 INTRODUCTION
The SOT23-3 Voltage Regulator Evaluation Board is designed to be used to facilitate
the evaluation of Microchip’s voltage regulators, or to be used as a stand-alone voltage
regulator board. Jumpers have been placed on the board to ease the test of the
specific voltage regulator parameters.
The SOT23-3 Voltage Regulator Evaluation Board kit comes with a 1
μ F ceramic input
and output capacitor soldered to the board. The board has two unpopulated resistor
locations that may be used for loads.
2.2 FEATURES
The SOT23-3 Voltage Regulator Evaluation Board has the following features:
• Input and Output headers for future connection to Line Step and Load Step
modules
• Ample testpoints to attach multimeters, power supplies, and loads
• Jumper to select ground current measurement
• Jumper to connect output load resistor
• Jumper to connect input capacitor to circuit
• Jumper to select one of two device pinouts
2.3 GETTING STARTED
The SOT23-3 Voltage Regulator Evaluation Board is fully assembled and tested. All
that is required for operating is a voltage regulator supplied by the user, and a supply
voltage source. Some of the tests that may be completed using the SOT23-3 Voltage
Regulator Evaluation Board are described in the next subchapters.
2.3.1 Device Pinout Selection (For All Tests)
For all tests, JP2 and JP5 must be set to select the desired device and footprint.
Jumpers U1 Footprint U2 Footprint
JP2 - connect pins 2-3 1-2
JP5 - connect pins 2-3 1-2
