1 Evaluation Module Overview 1.1 Introduction The TPS7H3014EVM-CVAL is the Evaluation Module (EVM) for the ceramic package option of the TPS7H3014 and provides a platform to electrically evaluate its features. This user’s guide provides details about the EVM, including the configuration,schematics, and BOM.

Evaluation Module Overview 1.3.1 Alternate Board Configurations The TPS7H3014EVM-CVAL board provides footprints that can be populated with components for testing a "daisy-chain" configuration of 2 TPS7H3014-SP sequencers. The configuration is used to increase the number of monitored SENSEx inputs and ENx outputs that can be used for sequencing.
1.6V ≤ VPULL_UPx ≤ 7V 2.2 Important Usage Notes The TPS7H3014EVM-CVAL board is configured so that the ENx signals are tied by a 0Ω resistor to their respective SENSEx signal. This configuration is purely for simplicity of testing device features and behavior when external voltages are not available to be sensed by the SENSEx pins.
5. External System RESET 3.1 Default Configuration Results The following tests were performed using the TPS7H3014EVM-CVAL in the default configuration with VIN=12V and PULL_UP1=PULL_UP2=1.8V or 3.3V (indicated by voltage seen on the ENx, PWRGD, SEQ_DONE, and FAULT signals). All UP and DOWN sequences were initiated by raising or lowering VIN, as shown in the first two tests, unless stated otherwise.
5.1 Compliance and Certifications • Texas Instruments, TPS7H3014EVM-CVAL EU RoHS Declaration of Conformity (DoC) 6 Additional Information 6.1 Known Hardware Issues 1. An initial build of this board has duplicate designators for 2 test points. Both the RESET and EN1_S test points were listed as TP20.
