TPS65987-90 Evaluation Module
2.2
Connector Functionality
Table 2
lists the TPS65987-90EVM connector and functionality.
Table 2. Connector Functionality
Designator
Description
J1
USB Type-C connector: TI recommends using an active or e-marked USB Type-c cable
J2
Expansion board connector: Connect the DP-EXPANSION-EVM to evaluate DisplayPort and USB3.2 data
J3
Micro-B connector: Connect to a PC to flash a project on the PD controller. You must download the
Application Customization Tool (GUI)
to flash a project properly.
J9
Barrel jack connector: Use a 19-V to 20-V DC supply. A standard Dell or HP notebook adapter (or similar) will
provide the required power.

D12
μ
B VBUS
White LED that shows when the
μ
B port is connected (FTDI for GUI).
D13
SSMX: DP
(1)
White LED that shows when the TPS65987D device has enabled this signal for the
super-speed MUX in the DP-EXPANSION-EVM (depending on version of EVM the
silkscreen may appear to show this signal swapped with SSMX: USB3)
D14
SSMX: FLIP
White LED that shows when the TPS65987D device has enabled this signal for the
super-speed MUX in the DP-EXPANSION-EVM
D15
SSMX: USB3
(1)
White LED that shows when the TPS65987D device has enabled this signal for the
super-speed MUX in the DP-EXPANSION-EVM
D16
VBUS
White LED that shows when V
BUS
has a voltage of 5 V, 9 V, 15 V, or 20 V
D19
SYS_PWR
Blue LED that shows when the barrel jack is connected
D20
VAR_DCDC
Green LED that shows when there is a voltage on the variable DC/DC controller (U9).
When the EVM acts as a source, D20 lights up.
D22
PDO_0
White LED that shows when there is a 5-V PD contract (only shown when sourcing)
D22
PDO_1
White LED that shows when there is a 9-V PD contract (only shown when sourcing)
D24
PDO_2
White LED that shows when there is a 15-V PD contract (only shown when sourcing)
D25
PDO_3
White LED that shows when there is a 20-V PD contract (only shown when sourcing)
