software, which interfaces to the EVAL-SSM6515Z
via a USB connection. The EVAL-SSM6515Z can be powered by
the USB bus or by a single 3.8 V to 5 V supply. These supplies are
regulated to the voltages required on the EVAL-SSM6515Z. The
printed circuit board (PCB) is a 4-layer design, with a ground plane
and a power plane on the inner layers. The EVAL-SSM6515Z con-
tains 0.1 in. pitch male headers for connecting to external speakers.
The minimum speaker load must be 8 Ω. The EVAL-SSM6515Z
consists of two SSM6515s for evaluating the stereo headphone
output.
For full details on the SSM6515, see the SSM6515 data sheet,
which must be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when
using the EVAL-SSM6515Z.
