The section labeled Vbias in Figure 4-1 consists of a simple voltage divider. The default voltage divider configuration is used to set the Vbias node to midsupply on a single supply voltage. Operating the EVM on a single supply voltage of VDD = 12 V and VSS = GND results in Vbias ≅ 6 V. Vbias sets the common-mode voltage of the OPA202 resulting in a dc voltage of approximately 6 V seen at the Vout of the EVM. Monitor Vbias by using the test point labeled Vbias. When using the EVM in a dual-supply configuration, set the Vbias point to midsupply by removing resistor R16 and replacing R17 with a 0-Ω resistor.
