Texas Instruments TMDSEVM6678L User manual

Getting Started
The EVM ships with a Power On Self Test (POST)
flashed into I2C EEPROM. The POST automati-
cally executes when the board is powered ON.
POST performs memory test and internal EMAC
loopback test. At power ON, the user LEDs are
OFF by default. The LEDs blink and turn OFF to
indicate successful DSP booting.
After booting, User LED-1 turns ON to indicate
successful RAM test and User LED-2 turns ON to
indicate successful internal EMAC loop-back
test. These LEDs remain ON to indicate success
of both the tests.
Please refer to the EVM User Guide for software
installation and other details
Important Notes when handling the
EVM
•Plug in all the cables before powering ON the
EVM to ensure proper grounding.
•Do not unnecessarily flex the boards, while
inserting cables. Excessive flexing can break
the PCB traces.
•Use proper ESD procedures when handling the
EVM.
•Warning: Some components on the EVM may
be too hot to touch with your bare hand when
power is on.
