4 Power Supplies
The default state of the EVM is that all power supplies are generated using the USB power from the PHI
controller. This section shows how external power connections can be made. Also, this section shows the default
configuration for AVDD is generated with a 5-V low-dropout regulator (LDO).
4.1 Power Connection and Configuration
shows connections to external supplies for the amplifier, reference, and data converter. The default
state of the EVM is that the power is provided by the PHI digital controller board via the USB port. The external
power connections can be used in cases where the PHI does not provide the needed voltage. For example, the
PHI does not provide negative voltages, so if a negative AVSS is needed an external power supply is required.
To use the external power connections for AVDD and IOVDD, change the 0-Ω resistor connections (R71, R74,
and R81).
Connector J12 can optionally be used to supply power to the onboard 5-V and –2.5-V regulators. In this case,
the allowable voltage range for –VinExt is –15.5 V < –VinExt < –3.5 V and +VinExt is 6 V< +VinExt < 15.5 V.
