Chapter 1 Introduction This User’s Guide describes the setup and operation of the TPS2231 evaluation module (EVM) HPA074. Information and instruction presented throughout this document assumes user familiarity with the data sheet of the TPS2231 ExpressCard power-interface switch. Introduction...
Chapter 2 Hardware Overview The HPA074 EVM features the TPS2231 made by Texas Instruments Incorporated. The EVM has been designed to be simple and straight-forward for users to evaluate the TPS2231 device with all the necessary external components and test points. An ExpressCard compliant socket is installed for insertion of an ExpressCard card.
Setup 3.1 Setup The HPA074 EVM is designed to allow evaluation of the TPS2231 device. Test points and slide switches are provided to facilitate various tests and configura- tions. 3.2 Slide Switches On the HPA074 EVM, 6 slide switches (S1 through S6) are provided to set the logic levels on the TPS2231 logic inputs.
3.4 Features In order to easily evaluate the TPS2231 PD controller, the EVM features are described in this section. 3.4.1 Input and Output Capacitors The input capacitances of the TPS2231 voltage inputs are recommended to be at least 4.7 µF. The output capacitances are at least 0.1 µF but greater output capacitance will improve system performance during transients.
