Connection Instructions
Description
J1
U1 Input V (IN)
Connect the lead from the power terminal of the input source for the U1 circuit to this input
J2
U1 Input Ground (GND)
Connect the lead from the return terminal of the input source for the U1 circuit to this input
J3
U1 Output (OUT)
Connect the positive side of the load and/or output multimeter to this output
J4
U1 Output Ground
Connect the ground side of the load and/or output multimeter to this output.
J5
U2 Input V (IN)
Connect the lead from the power terminal of the input source for the U2 circuit to this input.
J6
U2 Input Ground
Connect the lead from the return terminal of the input source for the U2 circuit to this input.
J7
U2 Output
Connect the positive side of the load and/or output multimeter to this output.
J8
U2 Output Ground
Connect the ground side of the load and/or output multimeter to this output.
Enable input for the U1 device. Place a shunt across the H and EN pins of JP1 to enable U1.
JP1
U1 EN
Place a shunt across the L and EN pins of JP1 to disable U1. A shunt must be installed on
JP1 in either H or L positions and EN must not be left unconnected.
User can program the output voltage. Place a shunt across the H and V

To setup the EVM Board operation
1. Connect the positive input power supply to the V
IN
pins on J1/J5.
2. Connect the input power return (ground) to the GND pins on J2/J6. The TPS780xxEVM-301 has a
maximum input voltage of 6 V. The recommended maximum operating input voltage is 5.5 V.
3. Connect the desired load between the Vout (J3/J7) and GND (J4/J8). The TPS780xxx supplies up to
150 mA of output current.
4. Configure jumpers JP1/JP3 and JP2/JP4 according to
and as required for your application.
