Power Configurations and Jumper Settings

The supply connections to the AMC8V208EVM is shown in Table 2-1 and Figure 2-1. Make sure 2V ≤ PVDD1 - VEE ≤ 5.5V.

Remove the jumpers from J30, J31, J32, or J33 before connecting an external supply to VIO, VDD, VEE, or PVDDx respectively.

Designator Supply Name Voltage Range
J4 VIO 1.1V to 1.95V
J5 VEE -3V to 0V (2V ≤ PVDD1 - VEE ≤ 5.5V)
J24 VDD 3V to 5.5V
J25 PVDD Common 2V to 5.5V (2V ≤ PVDD1 - VEE ≤ 5.5V)
J26 GND 0V
J33 PVDD1:6, PVDDP1:2 2V to 5.5V (2V ≤ PVDD1 - VEE ≤ 5.5V)
