4.4 Test Procedure
Note
CH1 and CH2 can be tested one by one with a single power supply and the load.
4.4.1 Preliminary Tests
1. Turn on the power supply and set the output voltage and the current limit according to
.

2. Turn on the load and set the load resistance to 16 Ω ±1 Ω.
3. Disable the power supply, load and hook up the TPS2640EVM assembly as shown in
4. Make sure the default evaluation board jumper settings are as shown in

5. Enable the power supply and the load.
6. Connect the negative probe of the DMM to TP7 or TP18 test points, the positive probe to the respective test
points, and verify that the voltages shown in
are obtained.

7. Press the CH1/CH2 shutdown switch S1/S2 and verify the CH1/CH2 output voltage VOUT1/VOUT2 drops to
zero. Release the S1/S2 switch and verify the output voltage resumes to nominal 24 V ±1 V.
8. Disable the power supply and the load.
