- Turn on +12VDC to the
LMG342X-BB-EVM. Watch the power supply for the DC current to settle
down after approximately 3 to 5 seconds.
- Make sure all the fault
LEDs are off and the 5V LED is on.
- Turn on +12VDC to enable
the fan.
- Turn on the function
generator to output the continuous pulse, and check the dead time of
the PWM signals.
- User proper probes for
measurement. To measure the fast switching transient in the
switch-node, TI recommends to use the high-bandwidth high-voltage
passive probes with minimized ground loop connections.
- TI recommends to add
common-mode chokes to the measurement signals and to the power input
and output connections.
- Enable the high voltage
power supply and make sure to ramp the voltage up gradually from 0V
to the desired bus voltage (up to 480V). As the voltage is ramping up,
the HV LED turns on and become brighter.
WARNING: Do NOT turn on
the device at the absolute maximum voltage. TI recommends to start the
device at or below 480 V.
Slowly increase the input voltage and monitor the VSW to make sure the peak
voltage does not exceed the absolute maximum rating of 520 V.
