  • Page 3: Introduction

    Introduction 1 Introduction The Texas Instruments TPS7A74EVM-068 evaluation module (EVM) helps designers evaluate the operation and performance of the TPS7A74 LDO voltage regulator. As shown in Table 1-1, the TPS7A74EVM-068 contains one TPS7A74 LDO voltage regulator in the DSD package. An optional load transient circuit is also included to assist the user with high-speed load transient testing.

  • Page 4: Optional Load Transient Input/Output Connector Descriptions

    EVM. Setpoint resistors are prepopulated on the TPS7A74EVM-068 to provide an output voltage of 1 V, 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, or 3.3 V. Select one of these output voltages by using the provided shunt to short the necessary pin on header J16.
