Daughter card socket: modular daughter card
design allowing to use any TI smart fuse high-side switch via the same
motherboard EVM
TM4C123GH6 32-bit Arm Cortex-M4F
based MCU: used as a USB to SPI host from the host PC to the attach high-side
switch daughter card
9-pin Cortex-M JTAG port
allows for users to program/debug own firmware to the TM4C123
LMR43610-Q1 automotive 3V to 36V,
1A, low-EMI synchronous buck regulator: uses the supply voltage to derive 3.3V
power rail to supply VDD of high-side switch
Can be disabled via
jumper setting if external VDD source is desired
Test points: fully accessible
test-points/headers allowing complete access to SPI lines, fault signals, power
rails
