1.1 Introduction

The EVM is an easy-to-use platform for evaluating the main features and performance of the INA700 or INA701. The EVM includes a graphical user interface (GUI) used to read and write device registers as well as view and save results data. See the individual device data sheets for current limits for the desired use case.

This EVM user’s guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of the INA700 and INA701 evaluation modules (EVMs). These EVMs are designed to evaluate the performance of the INA700 or INA701. Throughout this document, the terms evaluation board, evaluation module, and EVM are synonymous with the INA700-701EVM. This document includes a schematic, reference printed circuit board (PCB) layouts, and a complete bill of materials (BOM).
