JP1 is provided to enable isolation between the device and the connected XDS in higher-voltage applications. The area of isolation is defined by the white outline on the upper-side of the LaunchPad. JP1 has two removable shunts to separate the GND and 5 V power of the USB/XDS region and the F28P65x MCU region of the LaunchPad. By default, both shunts are populated and the power is supplied by the connected USB, meaning that the USB and XDS110 are NOT isolated from the F28P65x MCU region. If power isolation is desired, remove the supplied shunts from JP1. In this configuration, one of the two external power options below are required:
5 V is generated using the on-board 5 V BOOST (TPS61241).
In an isolated power application with JP1 shunts removed, make sure the proper shunts on the F28P65x MCU region of the board are populated. Refer to Section 3.1.2 for greater detail.
