FCC Warning FCC Warning This equipment is intended for use in a laboratory test environment only. It generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and has not been tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices pursuant to subpart J of part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference.
Feature Highlights 1.1 Feature Highlights The TI TPA731 MSOP audio amplifier evaluation module and the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform include the following features: TPA731 low-voltage audio power amplifier evaluation module Single channel, bridge-tied load (BTL) 2.5-V and 5.5-V operation...
The platform, with room for a pair of TPA731 MSOP evaluation modules, is a convenient vehicle for demonstrating TI’s audio power amplifier and related evaluation modules.
Chapter 2 Operation Follow the steps in this chapter to quickly prepare the TPA731 MSOP audio amplifier EVM for use. Using the TPA731 MSOP EVM with the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform is a quick and easy way to connect power, signal and control inputs, and signal outputs to the EVM, using standard connectors.
Precautions 2.1 Precautions Power Supply Input Polarity and Maximum Voltage Always ensure that the polarity and voltage of the external power connected to V power input connector J1, J2, and/or V power input connector J6 are correct. Overvoltage or reverse-polarity power applied to these terminals can open onboard soldered-in fuses and cause other damage to the platform, installed evaluation modules, and/or the power source.
1) Ensure that all external power sources are set to off and that the platform power switch S1 is set to off. 2) Install a TPA731 MSOP module in platform sockets U3 and U4 for stereo operation (or a module in either U3 or U4 for single channel operation), taking care to align the module pins correctly.
Quick Start List for Stand-Alone 2.3 Quick Start List for Stand-Alone Follow these steps to use the TPA731 MSOP EVM stand-alone or when connecting it into existing circuits or equipment. Connections to the TPA731 MSOP module header pins can be made via individual sockets, wire-wrapping, or soldering to the pins, either on the top or the bottom of the module circuit board.
