EVM Connections

Referencing the EVM connections described in Table 2-1, Figure 2-1 shows the recommended test setup to evaluate the LM5137F-Q1-EVM12V. Working at an ESD-protected workstation, verify that any wrist straps, boot straps, or mats are connected and referencing the user to earth ground before handling the EVM.
