LaunchPad™ Power Configuration
To reduce the number of cables required to communicate and power the BOOSTXL-ADS1219, the USB
connection at U7 can be used as the supply source for the LaunchPad™ as well as the communication
connection for the CDC virtual COM port to the GUI. To route the power correctly, use the jumper installed
on JP6 and connect to JP1 at the 5V-OTG (center) position as shown in
. There should now be
two jumpers on JP1.
