- Confirm the power switch on the TSW14J59EVM is in off position. Connect the power cable to a 12V DC (minimum 5A) power supply. Make sure the proper supply polarity by confirming the outer surface of the barrel connector is GND and the inner portion of the connector is 12V. Connect the power cable to the TSW14J59EVM power connector.
- DAC39RF12EVM can be powered with 12V DC (minimum 3A) though the connector jack(J5) on the DAC39RF12EVM, or the EVM can be powered from the TSW14J59EVM via FMC+ connector. There is a switch (SW1) which can be used to select power from the barrel jack on the DAC EVM, or from TSW14J59EVM through FMC+ connector. Confirm that the power switch for the DAC39RF12EVM power supply is set to the opposite position (Jack) from which it should be drawing power. If using barrel jack option, connect the power cable to a 12V DC (minimum 3A) power supply. Make sure the proper supply polarity by confirming that the outer surface of the barrel connector is GND and the inner portion of the connector is 12V. Connect the power cable to the EVM power connector. Table 2-1 is used as a reference to power the DAC EVM.
Table 2-1 Powering the DAC39RF12EVM| DAC39RF12 Powered from | DAC39RF12 Power Switch position | TSW14J59EVM FMC switch position | Power supply needed |
|---|
| TSW14J59EVM via FMC+ connector | FMC | ON | 12V 5A for TSW14J59EVM |
| External Supply with jack on DAC39RF12EVM | JACK | OFF | 12V 3A for TSW14J59 and 12V 3A for DAC39RF12EVM |
CAUTION: Make sure the power connections to the EVMs are the correct polarity. Failure to do so may result in immediate damage. Leave the power switches in the off position until directed later.
