7.2 Debugging the EVM
This section discusses various debugging examples. Testing and debugging approaches on the EVM can be
applied to an actual system to help identify any issues.
7.2.1 Connection Not Established
The following checks help resolve issues when connecting the EVM to another EVM or USB Type-C device and
no status LEDs are on:
• Verify that a firmware image is loaded in on the TPS65988 using the
TPS65988 Configuration Tool
• Verify the CC lines are toggling for
Dual-Role Port
• Verify the following system supplies:
– System_3V3 and VIN_3V3: 3.3 V
– System_5V and PP_CABLE: 5 V
– Barrel jack and SYS_PWR: 20 V
– LDO_3V3: 3.3 V
– LDO_1V8: 1.8 V
• Verify that the devices connected are compatible. The following are some of the compatible connections:
–
Dual-Role Port
→ UFP
–
Dual-Role Port
→ DFP
– DFP → UFP
• Verify that VBUS is reaching 5 V when connected, (see
