TPS62160EVM-627 and TPS62170EVM-627
Evaluation Modules
This user’s guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of the Texas Instruments TPS62160
and TPS62170 evaluation modules (EVM). These EVMs are designed to help the user easily evaluate and
test the operation and functionality of the TPS62160 and TPS62170. This user’s guide includes setup
instructions for the hardware, printed-circuit board layouts for the EVMs, a schematic diagram, a bill of
materials, and test results for the EVMs.
