2.3 EVM Setup

Use the VINS+ and VINS– test points along with the VOUTS+, VOUTS– test points located near the power terminal blocks as voltage monitoring points where voltmeters are connected to measure the input and output voltages, respectively. Do not use these sense terminals as the input supply or output load connection points. The PCB traces connected to these sense terminals are not designed to support high currents. Before applying power to the EVM, make sure that the jumper is present and properly positioned for the intended output voltage. Always remove input power before changing the jumper settings. Always use caution when touching any circuits that can be live or energized.

CAUTION:

Extended operation at high output current can raise component temperatures above 55°C. To avoid risk of a burn injury, do not touch the components until the components have cooled sufficiently after disconnecting power. Wire gauge for the input power supply and the output electric load must be 9 AWG minimum and no longer than 1 foot. Please tighten the input and output terminal screws to minimize contact resistance.
