Power-On and Bias Supply Check

Note: This is a low voltage only test; do not attempt to manually probe the test points when a high bus voltage is applied to this EVM.
  1. Power supply set at 12V, 0.5A. Connect power supply to TP44 (power) and TP45 (GND)

  2. Tie J1 to HS COM, and J2 to LS COM. See Figure 4-1 for location of test points.

  3. Probe the VCC-GND voltage between the VCC test via and GND1 TP (lower left of board) with a multimeter. This value should be 5V.

  4. Probe the high side VDD-COM voltage by using the HS VDD test point and the HS COM test point. Probe the low side VDD-COM voltage by using the LS VDD test point and the LS COM test point. These values should be around 20V.

  5. Probe the high side VEE-COM voltage by using the HS VEE test point and the HS COM test point. Probe the low side VEE-COM voltage by using the LS VEE test point and the LS COM test point. These values should be around -5.5V.

  6. Make sure the four red indicator LEDs are off. Make sure the one green indicator LED and the two blue indicator LEDs are on.
