The TPS1HC30EVM is a hardware evaluation module (EVM) used to enable hardware engineers to evaluate the full performance and functionality of the TPS1HC30-Q1 automotive high side switch. The TPS1HC30EVM contains everything needed to test and assess the TPS1HC30-Q1 before designing it into part of a greater application power system. The evaluation module is designed to either be used as a standalone board with an attached voltage supply and output load or in conjunction with an underlying Texas Instruments microcontroller by using the standardized BoosterPack™ plug-in module headers. A wide range of application features such as current sensing, programmable current limiting, and transient suppression are enabled and visible through use of this evaluation module.

The Texas Instruments TPS1HC30EVM is an evaluation module that is used to demonstrate and showcase all of the features of the underlying TPS1HC30-Q1 automotive high side switch. This evaluation board provides a seamless way to connect a power supply to the input of the TPS1HC30-Q1, connect a load to the output channel, and switch on and off the device using the control pins of the chip itself. An onboard 3.3-V LDO is included on the EVM to simplify controlling signals to the TPS1HC30-Q1 and easily assert and deassert logic signals by the use of a set of external hardware jumpers. Additionally, this EVM includes BoosterPack plug-in module headers allowing the user to easily connect the TPS1HC30-Q1 high side switch to an underlying microcontroller and write software to control and configure the device.
