6.1 Start-Up Procedure

  1. Prior to connecting the DC input source VIN, it is advisable to limit the source current from VIN to 3.0 ADC maximum. Make sure VIN is initially set to 0 V.
  2. Ensure LOAD1 and LOAD2 are set to constant current mode to sink 0 A before VIN is applied.
  3. Verify SW1 and SW2 are in the desired position.
  4. Place a fan as shown in Figure 5-1 and turn it on, making sure air is flowing across the EVM.
  5. Increase VIN from 0 V to 12 VDC.
