3.1 Connecting the Evaluation Modules

The EVMs are connected using standard wire jumper; Table 1 shows the connections between the two EVMs. By default, the TMS570 Launchpad is powered by the USB port on the host computer and the BQ76PL455EVM is powered by a 3.3-V regulator on the TMS570 Launchpad board.

NOTE: Make sure that the resistor R8 is removed on the TMS570 Launchpad board.
