3 Getting Started

The ULC1001-DRV290x EVM can be set up to drive multiple types of Lens Cover Systems. The EVM contains a flexible boost converter design and multiple filter configurations in the output path. Use the following instructions for assembling the hardware and installing the software components of the system.

CAUTION: The piezo transducer in the LCS can become electrically charged due to electric fields or temperature changes. Before connecting the LCS to the ULC1001-DRV290x EVM, short the leads of the LCS to discharge any potential.
