2.4 Hardware Setup

Use the following list to set up the EVM testing equipment:

  1. Review EVM jumper connections in Table 3-2.
  2. Set PS #1 for 5-V DC, 2-A current limit and then turn off the supply.
  3. Connect the output of PS#1 in series with a current meter to J1 (VBUS and PGND).
  4. Connect a voltage meter across TP10 (VBUS) and TP29 (PGND), or across J1.
  5. Turn on Load #1, set to constant voltage mode, and output to 2.5-V. Disable Load. Connect Load in series with a current meter (multimeter), ground side, to J4 (BAT and PGND) as shown in Figure 3-1 in not using a source meter with current measuring capabilities.
  6. Connect a voltage meter across TP13 (BAT) and TP27 (PGND), or across J4-3 and J4-1 as in Figure 3-1.
  7. Connect a voltage meter across TP14 (SYS) and TP27 (PGND), or across J2-1 and J2-2 as in Figure 3-1.
  8. Connect a voltage meter across TP12 (PMID) and TP29 (PGND), or across J3-1 and J3-2 as in Figure 3-1.
  9. Connect the EV2400 USB interface board to the computer with a USB cable and from I2C port to J5 with the 4-pin cable as in Figure 3-1.
  10. Install shunts as shown in Table 3-2. Note that the shunts in Figure 3-1 are not necessarily installed per the table.
