2.3 Power Connections

The AWR2188EVM is powered by the 12-V power jack (>2.5-A current capability). When power is provided the 12V, REGOUT_3V3, and SYS_PGOOD LEDs glow, indicating that the board is powered up.

Note: After the 12-V power supply is provided to the EVM, TI recommends manually toggling the NRST one time to provide for a reliable boot-up state.
