Introduction
Introduction
The Texas Instruments TPS61010 to TPS61016 evaluation modules (EVM)
helps designers evaluate the different operating modes and the performance
of high-efficiency boost converters. Refer to Table 1–1 for the various EVMs
available in this family.
If any other output voltage is to be evaluated, the TPS61010 adjustable
version can be set up to provide an output voltage between 1.5 V and 3.3 V.
Only the feedback resistor divider has to be adjusted. Also, other fixed output
voltage versions of the devices can be easily evaluated using the EVM. Refer
to the data sheet (SLVS314) for the various fixed output voltage options
available in the TPS6101x device family.
The TPS6101x has an input voltage range between 0.9 V and VO. The
maximum output current is at least 100 mA depending on the input voltage.

Introduction
1.4 Setup of the EVMs
Itis importantto establishall connectionsto the EVMbefore thepower supply
connected to the EVM is turned on.
1) Connect a power supply (0.9 V to VO, depending on the output voltage of
the EVM) to the INPUT header.
2) Connect a voltmeter to the OUTPUT header.
3) Verify that the jumper, J1, is set to EN.
4) Verify that the jumper, J2, is set to TBD.
5) Turn on the power supply and verify the output voltage.
