  • Page 10: Power Requirements

    Target Board S3A6 (TB-S3A6) User's Manual Power Requirements TB-S3A6 is designed for 3.3 Volt operation. Note that this also means that 5V PMOD devices cannot be used together with the TB-S3A6 unless they are powered separately. The total current available from the LDO regulator for all connected circuits is 0.600A or less, depending the 5V power source used.
  • Page 11 Target Board S3A6 (TB-S3A6) User's Manual Option 3: Test Points TP1 and TP2 The TB-S3A6 can also be powered by installing a 3.3V source across TP1 (positive input) and TP2 (negative input). Copper jumper E35 must be open to enable powering the board using these test points. Figure 4 TP1, TP2 and LED1 on Target Board These test points supply voltage directly to the S3A6 MCU, the S124 J-Link MCU, and other on-board circuitry.

The red LED in the same LED package functions as a status indicator for the J-Link On-Board debug interface on the board.
  • Page 13 Target Board S3A6 (TB-S3A6) User's Manual 4.2.4 Measuring Current Consumption Pad 1 and 3 of the Copper jumper E6, which is a dual trace-cut jumper, allow measurement of +3V3 MCU supply current. Pad 2 and 4 of E6 allow measurement of VBAT supply current. Both traces are connected by default. These traces should be cut to enable power measurement.
