2.4 Hardware Setup

The EVM hardware is designed and kitted to simplify setup and begin spinning motors. The EVM comes with the jumpers placed at the appropriate location in the headers. The location of the jumpers, also called shunts, are shown in Figure 3-1.

Note: Before using the EVM, check that the shunt location matches the location shown in Figure 3-1.

Before connecting the EVM to the GUI software, follow these steps:

  1. Make sure all the jumpers are populated on J1 and J2 if using the GUI with the EVM controller. If users are not using the GUI and TI firmware, then users can remove all the jumpers from J2 except the bottom most jumper DVDD. Users can remove the DVDD jumper if the DVDD voltage is supplied externally and not from the onboard MCU.
  2. If using the EC driver, then make sure J23 is set to the desired position.
  3. Connect the micro-USB cable to micro-USB receptacle in the XDS110 section. LED2 illuminates.
  4. Provide VBAT voltage through VBAT connector.
  5. Set up is now complete. See Figure 3-5 for setup image.
