8.1 Start Up/Shut Down Procedure

  1. Set up the EVM as described in Section 5.3 and Figure 5-1.
  2. Ensure LOAD is set to sink 0 ADC.
  3. Ensure jumper J3 set per Section 6.1.
  4. Increase VIN from 0 VDC to 12 VDC. Using V1 to measure VIN voltage.
  5. Open jumper J3 to enable the converter.
  6. Use V2 to measure VOUT voltage, A1 to measure VIN voltage.
  7. Vary LOAD from 0 ADC to 25 ADC, VOUT should remain in load regulation.
  8. Vary VIN from 8 V to 14 V, VOUT should remain in line regulation.
  9. Short jumper J3 to disable the converter.
  10. Decrease VIN to 0 V.
  11. Decrease LOAD to 0 A.
