TPS26600-02EVM: Evaluation Module for TPS2660x
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
Table 5. Power Supply Setting for the TPS26600-02EVM

.
3. Disable the power supply, load and hook up the TPS26600-02EVM 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.
4.4.2
UVLO, OVP Tests
Follow the instructions to verify undervoltage and overvoltage levels of the device:
1. Set the load resistance to 24
Ω
±1
Ω
and the power supply voltage to 24 V. Enable the power supply
and the load.
2. Increase the CH1 input voltage (VIN1) and monitor the output voltage (VOUT1). Verify that VOUT1
increases as VN1 increases and drops to zero when VIN1 exceeds 40 V ±1 V (CH1 OVP limit).
3. Reduce the CH1 input voltage and verify that the output turns on at 36 V ±1 V.
