(EVM). This EVM is designed to evaluate the performance of the AFE3010 as a ground-fault circuit interrupter IC with self-tests. Throughout this document, the terms evaluation board, evaluation module, and EVM are synonymous with the AFE3010EVM. This document also includes a schematic, reference printed-circuit board (PCB) layouts, and a complete bill of materials (BOM).

AC source. The entire board is high-voltage and thus no part of it is safe to touch when it is connected to a live source. The AFE3010EVM was not designed to actually break or interrupt the source voltage if a fault current is detected.
Operation Quick Start Setup Follow these procedures to set up and ensure proper operation of the AFE3010EVM with its onboard current transformer, T1. Step 1. Gather equipment for safe high-voltage test setup. Step 2. Ensure the EVM is completely de-energized and not connected to any source voltage.
3.1.1 Quick Start Setup - Testing the Trip Current Follow these procedures to test at what fault current the AFE3010EVM trips to interrupt the fault current. Note that the EVM was not mechanically constructed to break the circuit. Step 1. Power off the source voltage.
5. Connect the negative lead of the differential probe to any GND pin on the board. Note that the ground of the board is not Earth ground. The ground of the board is floating and a high-voltage node just as is every node on the AFE3010EVM that is never safe to have exposed. EVM Components This section summarizes the AFE3010EVM components.
