4.4 Evaluating Split Rail Input

The default configuration of the EVM is for single rail input. Split rail input enables operation with 3.3-V PVIN. For split rail operation, configure the jumpers on the EVM as follows:

  1. Move the jumper JP1 and JP2 to AVIN position to disconnect the AVIN pin from the PVIN pins.
  2. Apply the AVIN input to T4. 4-V or greater AVIN is required to bring the VDD5 voltage high enough to enable conversion.
  3. If operation with 3.3-V PVIN is needed and the CNTL jumpers (JP3 and JP4) are in UVLO position, the resistor divider at the EN/UVLO needs to be changed. Alternately, move the CNTL jumpers to CNTL_INPUT position and use the control signal to enable conversion or use the ON_OFF_CONFIG and OPERATION commands to enable conversion.
