1 Introduction
Figure 1. Top View of TPL5111EVM
The Texas Instruments TPL5111EVM evaluation module (EVM) allows a system designer to:
• Configure the timer interval of the TPL5111, using resistors REXT_1 and REXT_2.
• Observe the DRVn, DONE signals
• Measure current consumption
• Exercise the TIMER and ONE_SHOT modes
• Stimulate the DONE input.
The DRVn output of the TPL5111 is connected to the EN (enable) pin of a TI TPS61029 boost converter.
The periodic DRVn signal enables/disables the boost converter, demonstrating a power gating
implementation. The output of the TPS61029 drives a green LED, indicating when the output voltage is
active. The TPL5111EVM may be connected to the MSP430F5529 Launchpad in order to test its
watchdog and timer features in a microprocessor system. The output bus of the boost converter is
connected to the Launchpad connector to provide gated power to the Launchpad. The EVM may be
powered by either an on board battery holder (coin battery) or by an external voltage source.

Operation www.ti.com
3 Operation
Once the EVM is powered ON, the TPL5111 starts running. Refer to the datasheet of the TPL5111 for
further details on the timing. The TPL5111 has 2 modes of operation: TIMER mode and ONE SHOT
mode.
3.1 Timer Mode
In TIMER mode, the TPL5111 generates a periodic pulse at the DRVn pin. When a DRVn signal is
asserted by the TPL5111, the output of the TPS61029 is enabled, and the GREEN LED (D1) is turned on.
If the DONE switch is pushed, a DONE pulse is sent to the TPL5111, which de-asserts the DRVn pulse,
disabling the TPS61029, and turning off the GREEN LED. If the DONE switch is not pushed, the DRVn
pulse length is equal to the programmed value set by REXT_1 and REXT_2, minus 50 ms. When the
M_DRV switch is pushed, VDD is connected to the DELAY/M_DRV pin, simulating a manual power on
signal to the TPL5111. The length of the DRVn pulse in this case is equal to the amount of time the
M_DRV switch is pressed, plus the programmed time interval.
The DRVn pulse may be observed by attaching an oscilloscope probe to the DRV_N pin, as indicated in
Figure 3.

www.ti.com Operation
3.1.1 DRVn and DONE Operation
To simultaneously observe the timing of the DRVn pulse along with the DONE signal, use a two channel
scope to probe the DRV_N and the DONE pins. Ensure that the MODE_SW is in the TIMER position.
Immediately after a rising edge of the DRV_N signal, press and release the DONE switch on the board.
When the DONE signal is asserted, the DRVn pulse should de-assert.
Figure 4. DONE and DRVn Signal Behavior in Timer Mode
3.1.2 DRVn and Boost Converter Output
To simultaneously observe the timing of the DRVn pulse along with the output of the boost converter, use
a two channel scope to probe the DRV_N and the VDD_UC pins. Immediately after a rising edge of the
DRV_N signal, the output of the boost converter should turn on, with a delay of approximately 2.5 ms to 5
ms. The output level should be approximately 3.3V.

Operation www.ti.com
3.2 One Shot Mode
In ONE SHOT mode of operation, the TPL5111 asserts the DRVn signal at power on and when M_DRV is
asserted. To observe this mode of operation, use a two channel scope to monitor the DRV_N pin and the
DONE pin. Place the MODE_SW in the ONE SHOT position. Cycle power on the board in order to
reinitiate a power on sequence.
Once the EVM is powered ON, the TPL5111 asserts the DRVn signal, which enables the TPS61029
output, turning on the GREEN LED (D1). If the DONE switch is pushed, a DONE pulse is sent to the
TPL5111. The DRVn output is de-asserted and the TPS61029 is disabled and the green LED is shut off.
At this point only a manual power on signal (press the M_DRV switch) can trigger another cycle. This
mode of operation is useful for on-demand power on.
3.3 Supply Current Measurement
Timer Mode
This procedure is used to only measure the current of the TPL5111 in Timer mode. An external power
supply set to 2.5V should be used for this measurement.
WARNING
The EVM should NOT be connected to the MSP430 Launchpad for
this measurement.
1. Disconnect the power source from the EVM. Set the S_ON_OFF switch to the V_BATT position.
2. Set the MODE_SW to the TIMER position.
3. Remove the I_SEL jumper.
4. Connect the EVM, a power supply and a digital multi-meter (DMM) as shown in Figure 6. The output of
the power supply should be OFF. The DMM should support 6 digits of resolution.
