3.1 GUI Tool

Texas Instruments provides a GUI tool to enable, configure, and evaluate the various features of the TPS6522x with the EVM. Please refer to the GUI User's Guide for a more detailed description of this tool.

The GUI runs on most PC platforms and requires an available USB port. The EVM USB connector is USB Type-C® and a type-A to type-C cable is provided with the EVM to connect to the host computer. The EVM enumerates as two COM ports and one additional port for the device firmware updates. The GUI must use a ACCtrl COM port, which can be found from the device manager of the operating system. The COM port can be changed from the GUI from Options - Device Settings.
