4.3.3 Channel 2 Output Voltage Monitoring (TP6 and TP7)

The TPS53128EVM-620 provides two test points for measuring the voltage generated at the VOUT2 output by the module. This allows the user to measure the actual output voltage without losses from output cables and connectors. Measure all DC output voltage between TP7 and TP6. To use TP7 and TP6, connect a voltmeter positive terminal to TP7 and negative terminal to TP6.

For output ripple measurements, TP7 and TP6 allow a user to limit the ground loop area by using the tip and barrel measurement technique shown in Figure 4-1.
