2 Hardware

The INA700EVM is an easy-to-use platform that can evaluate the main features and performance of the INA700 device. The EVM supports current measurements up to 10 continuous amps through the PCB, and includes a graphical user interface (GUI) used to read and write device registers as well as view and save results data.

The EVM is intended to provide basic functional evaluation of the device. The layout is not laid out for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing. The EVM consists of a single printed circuit board (PCB). The PCB may also be referred to as the EVM in this document, and has the INA700 installed. A separate PCB may be used in conjunction with the EVM, known as the SCB Controller, and is used to interface the EVM with the GUI.
