Input/Output Connections

Table 4-1 shows the input/output connectors and test points of the TPS54427 evaluation module. Connect a power supply capable of supplying 2 A to J1 through a pair of 20 AWG wires. Connect the load to J2 through a pair of 20 AWG wires. The maximum load current capability is 4 A. Minimize wire lengths to reduce losses in the wires. Test point TP1 provides a place to monitor the input voltage, VIN, with TP2 providing a convenient ground reference. Use TP8 to monitor the output voltage, VOUT with TP9 as the ground reference.
