TMAG5x73 EVM Components

This section describes the main TMAG5x73 devices and supporting components. The component footprints that are duplicated on both the A1 and A2 parts of the board have an _A1 or _A2 appended to the end of the component names to indicate whether the component is on the A1 or A2 part of the board. With the exception of components U1_A1 and U1_A2, which correspond to different TMAG5x73 device variants, all other _A1 components use the same components as the corresponding _A2 components.

The EVM has the following components:

  • U1_A1 is the TMAG5x731A1 device on the A1 part of the board and U1_A2 is the TMAG5x73A2 device on the A2 part of the board.
  • C1_A1, C1_A2, C2_A1, and C2_A2 are bypass capacitors that are placed near the sensor to help mitigate power-supply noise and provide current quickly to the device when needed.
  • J1A_A1 and J1B_A1 are the main header pins that connect the digital and power pins of the TMAG5x73A1 to the SCB Controller. Similarly, J1A_A2 and J1B_A2 are the main header pins that connect the digital and power pins of the TMAG5x73A2 to the SCB controller.
  • Resistors R1_A1 and R1_A2 connect the 3.3V rail from the SCB board to the TMAG5x73A1 and TMAG5x73A2. Remove these resistors if the user wants to power the TMAG5273 from a different power source.
  • Resistors R2_A1 and R2_A2 are the pullup resistors on the SCL pin of the TMAG5x73 devices. Similarly, resistors R3_A1 and R3_A2 are the pullup resistors on the SDA pin of the TMAG5x73 devices. R4_A1 and R4_A2 are the pullup resistors on the interrupt pin of the TMAG5x73 devices.
