Important notice
NXP provides the enclosed product(s) under the following conditions:
This evaluation kit is intended for use of ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT OR
EVALUATION PURPOSES ONLY. It is provided as a sample IC pre-soldered to a
printed circuit board to make it easier to access inputs, outputs, and supply terminals.
This evaluation board may be used with any development system or other source of
I/O signals by simply connecting it to the host MCU or computer board via off-the-
shelf cables. This evaluation board is not a Reference Design and is not intended to
represent a final design recommendation for any particular application. Final device in
an application will be heavily dependent on proper printed circuit board layout and heat
sinking design as well as attention to supply filtering, transient suppression, and I/O
signal quality.
The goods provided may not be complete in terms of required design, marketing, and
or manufacturing related protective considerations, including product safety measures
typically found in the end product incorporating the goods. Due to the open construction
of the product, it is the user's responsibility to take any and all appropriate precautions
with regard to electrostatic discharge. In order to minimize risks associated with the
customers applications, adequate design and operating safeguards must be provided
by the customer to minimize inherent or procedural hazards. For any safety concerns,
contact NXP sales and technical support services.

4 Getting to know the hardware
4.1 Kit overview
The KITPF5200SKTEVM kit provides an integrated platform for evaluating designs
based on NXP’s PF5200 dual-channel PMIC. All PF5200 features can be accessed and
monitored in a test environment. Limitation related to the PF5200 socket restrict current
to 1.0 A.
The kit hardware consists of the KITPF5200SKTEVM evaluation board, a FRDM-KL25Z
microcontroller board, and the USB cable required to connect the FRDM-KL25Z to the
PC.
The KITPF5200SKTEVM evaluation board features a socket that allows users to flash an
individual PF5200 using the device’s One-Time-Programming (OTP) feature. Connectors,
jumpers, and switches on the board can be used to configure an evaluation environment
that meets specific design requirements. The board also contains LEDs and test points
that provide a means of monitoring performance in real time.
The FRDM-KL25Z is mounted to Arduino connectors on the bottom of the board.
The role of the FRDM-KL25Z is to manage SPI communication between the
KITPF5200SKTEVM board and the GUI installed on the PC. The FRDM-KL25Z draws
power from the USB cable connected to the PC.
4.2 KITPF5200SKTEVM features
•Banana 4 mm for power supply input
•Banana 4 mm for switcher 1 and switcher 2
•TBBEN and PWRON
•PGOOD, RESETBMCU and XFAIL pins
•USB to I2C protocol for easy connection to software GUI
•LEDs, green and red, that indicate signal or regulator status
•LED blue to indicate that VDDOTP pin is set to 8.0 V (OTP burning voltage)
•HWQFN32 socket to plug and play with PF5200
