This section describes the details of this procedure. 3.1 Electrostatic Discharge Warning Many of the components on the INA223EVM are susceptible to damage by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Customers are advised to observe proper ESD handling precautions when unpacking and handling the EVM, including the use of a grounded wrist strap at an approved ESD workstation. 3.2 Connecting the Hardware To connect the INA223 test board and the SM-USB-DIG Platform together, gently slide the male and female ends of the 10-pin connectors together. Make sure that the two connectors are completely pushed together; loose connections may cause intermittent operation. 3.3 Connecting Power After the EVM and SM-USB-DIG are joined, as shown in Figure 5, connect the desired VBUS and shunt configuration to be measured. Typically, setup involves a high- or low-side load and a shunt resistor across VIN+ and VIN–. The example in Figure 5 represents a test scenario with a low-side shunt attached. The power supply for VBUS is not included with the kit and is supplied by the customer; the specific voltage needed depends on your testing needs. Figure 5. Typical Hardware Test Connections on the INA223EVM SBOU125 – June 2012 Submit Documentation Feedback INA223EVM User’s Guide and Software Tutorial Copyright © 2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated 7 INA223EVM Hardware Overview 3.4 www.ti.com Connecting the USB Cable to the SM-USB-DIG Platform Figure 6 shows the USB connection to the SM-USB-DIG Platform board. The first time you connect to the PC, the computer typically responds with a Found New Hardware, USB Device pop-up window. The popup window then likely changes to Found New Hardware, USB Human Interface Device. The SM-USB-DIG Platform uses the human interface device drivers that are part of with Microsoft® Windows® operating systems. Figure 6. Connecting the USB Cable to the SM-USB-DIG Platform In some cases, the Windows Add Hardware Wizard is shown. If this prompt appears, allow the system device manager to install the human interface drivers by clicking Yes when requested to install drivers. Windows confirms installation of the drivers with the message shown in Figure 7. This pop-up indicates that the device is ready to be used. Figure 7.

You may want to change some of the jumpers on the INA223EVM to match your specific configuration. For example, you may wish to set a specific I2C address by configuring jumper 1 (JMP1) and jumper 2 (JMP2). Figure 8. INA223EVM Default Jumpers Jumper 3 (JMP3) on the INA223EVM is typically set to the internal (INT) position. When set to the INT position, the device supply voltage is generated and controlled from the SM-USB-DIG Platform. When this jumper is set to the external (EXT) position, INA223 pin 4 (VS) connects to terminal strip T1 and can be powered from an external supply. JMP1 and JMP2 control the I2C address pin for the INA223; these jumpers set the address for A0 to either high, low, SCL, or SDA. Make sure to connect only one jumper at a time for the address control (for example, if JMP1 is connected, do not connect JMP2, and vice versa). Failure to properly connect jumpers can cause shorts or interruptions in the communication lines. For more information on the INA223 addressing, consult the INA223 data sheet (SBOS528). Table 3 summarizes the function of the INA223 test board jumpers. For most applications, all the jumpers should be left in their default configurations. Table 3. INA223 Test Board Jumper Functions Jumper Default Description JMP1 Open JMP2 GND These jumpers select the I2C AO address selection for A0. Four separate I2C addresses can be selected,depending on whether JMP2 is set to high or low, or JMP1 is set to SDA or SCL. JMP3 INT SBOU125 – June 2012 Submit Documentation Feedback This jumper selects whether the VS pin on the INA223 is connected to the digital power-supply signal (VDUT) generated from the SM-USBDIG Platform (INT position), or whether the VDUT pin is connected to terminal T1, thus allowing for an external supply to power the digital circuitry (EXT position). INA223EVM User’s Guide and Software Tutorial Copyright © 2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated 9 INA223EVM Hardware Overview 3.6 www.ti.com INA223EVM Hardware This section describes some of the hardware features present on the INA223EVM board. 3.6.1 JMP3: I2C versus Control Setting The JMP3 setting determines if the INA223 is powered from the SM-USB-DIG platform or an external power supply. If JMP3 is set to the INT position, the VS pin is connected to the switchable VDUT signal generated from the SM-USB-DIG Platform. This voltage can be set to either 3.3 V or 5 V, depending on how it is configured in the software. When JMP3 is set to the EXT position, an external supply connected to terminal T1 must be used to provide the digital supply voltage for the INA223. 3.6.2 JMP1 and JMP2: I2C Address Hardware Setting (A0) JMP1 and JMP2 are used to set the hardware setting for the A0 I2C address pin on the INA223. Using JMP2, the A0 address can be set to either a logic '1' or a logic '0'. Using JMP1, the A0 address can be set to either the SCL or SDA communication line. Make sure to only have a jumper installed on JMP1 or JMP2. Failure to keep these lines separate can lead to board shorts and problems with the I2C communication lines. See the I2C Address Selection section for how to configure the INA223EVM software to match the JMP1 and JMP2 hardware settings. 3.6.3 External I2C lines and Terminal Block T3 The I2C communication lines on the INA223EVM are tied to two sources: The internal I2C communication lines from the SM-USB-DIG Platform and terminal block T3. If external signals separate from the SM-USBDIG are to be used, simply disconnect the SM-USB-DIG from the INA223 board and connect to external SDA, SCL, and GND lines. Also, remember to apply an external VS that is compatible with the I2C communication device being used. CAUTION Failure to disconnect the SM-USB-DIG Platform while using external I2C communication can cause damage to the SM-USB-DIG or external communication device. 10 INA223EVM User’s Guide and Software Tutorial Copyright © 2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated SBOU125 – June 2012 Submit Documentation Feedback INA223EVM Hardware Overview www.ti.com 3.6.4 VIN+ and VIN– Input Filter (R4, R3, and C3) The INA223EVM has an optional input filter located between the terminal block T2 and the INA223 input pins. This filter helps to remove high-frequency noise from the VIN+ and VIN– inputs. The EVM ships with this filter not used. C3 is typically unpopulated and R3 and R4 have 0-Ω resistors installed. If filtering is desired, limit the value for R3 and R4 to 10-Ω or less. Figure 9 shows the typical setup that is recommended for basic INA223 evaluation. See the INA223 data sheet (SBOS528) for more details. 0 W Resistors Unpopulated C3 Figure 9. Typical Filter Setup 3.6.5 Shunt Monitor Configuration and Terminal Block T2 The INA223 is typically used in a high-side configuration, as shown in Figure 10. The T2 terminal block includes the connections for VIN+ and VIN–, which should be connected directly across the shunt resistor. Depending on the user’s needs, either of these configurations may be used without any changes needed to the INA223EVM board or software.

By moving the A0 address on jumpers JMP1 and JMP2 to either GND, VS, SDA or SCL, the INA223 can be changed to four different I2C addresses, as shown in Table 4. Table 4. INA223 I2C Address Configuration A0 Address GND 1000000 VS 1000001 SDA 1000010 SCL 1000011 Figure 16 shows how to configure the I2C addresses. Click on the I2C Address Select button (shown in the red box) to select how the hardware is configured on the EVM. If the correct address is not selected, the INA223 cannot communicate with the software. Figure 16. Setting the A0 Address SBOU125 – June 2012 Submit Documentation Feedback INA223EVM User’s Guide and Software Tutorial Copyright © 2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated 15 INA223EVM Software Overview 5.2.2 www.ti.com Output Mode The output mode configuration allows the user to toggle between different output signals generated from the INA223, and is shown in the red box of Figure 17. The four options available for output mode are: Shunt Voltage, Bus Voltage, Supply Power, and Load Power. Figure 17. Configuring the Output Mode The two power output modes of the INA223EVM is used to select whether the signal representing the power being supplied by the power supply or the power being consumed by the load is made available at the output pin. When the Supply Power option is selected, the VBUS measurement is taken internally at the VIN+ pin of the INA223 and combined with the VSHUNT measurement to calculate the power being supplied. The Load Power option operates in a similar manner to the Supply Power option, except that the VBUS measurement is taken internally at the VIN– pin of the INA223. The power being consumeed by the load is found by taking the VBUS measurement from the VIN– pin. The Supply Power and Load Power results are very similar with the exception being that the Load Power option removes the power being dissipated across the shunt resistor from the result. At high current shunt gains, the differences between Load Power and Supply Power are negligible. At low current shunt gains, the power dissipated across the sense resistor can result in a noticeable difference between these two results. 16 INA223EVM User’s Guide and Software Tutorial Copyright © 2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated SBOU125 – June 2012 Submit Documentation Feedback INA223EVM Software Overview www.ti.com It is important to note that valid bus voltage and shunt voltage measurements must be within the linear range of the device in order for the INA223 to correctly calculate power using Equation 1. POWER = VOUT / PowerGAIN × RSHUNT (1) Where VOUT is calculated based on Equation 2: VOUT = VCM × VSENSE × PowerGAIN (2) and PowerGAIN valuse are shown in Table 5. Table 5. Power Gain Values Bus Voltage Gain Shunt Voltage Gain PowerGAIN 1/10 20 0.667 1/10 128 4.267 1/10 300 10 1/5 20 1.333 1/5 128 8.533 1/5 300 20 2/5 20 2.667 2/5 128 17.067 2/5 300 40 The remaining two configurations, Bus Voltage and Shunt Voltage, measure the bus voltages at the VINpin and the shunt voltage developed directly across the shunt resistor, respectively. The actual output voltage of either measurement is based on the input voltage multiplied by the corresponding gain settings, as shown in sections Section 5.2.3 and Section 5.2.4. NOTE: For maximum accuracy, select a gain that gives a full-scale voltage, just below the maximum output voltage.

FCC Warning This evaluation board/kit is intended for use for ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT, DEMONSTRATION, OR EVALUATION PURPOSES ONLY and is not considered by TI to be a finished end-product fit for general consumer use. It generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and has not been tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices pursuant to part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference. Operation of this equipment in other environments may cause interference with radio communications, in which case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures may be required to correct this interference. EVM Warnings and Restrictions It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of 0 V to 26 V and the output voltage range of 0 V to 5.5 V. Exceeding the specified input range may cause unexpected operation and/or irreversible damage to the EVM. If there are questions concerning the input range, please contact a TI field representative prior to connecting the input power. Applying loads outside of the specified output range may result in unintended operation and/or possible permanent damage to the EVM. Please consult the EVM User's Guide prior to connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load specification, please contact a TI field representative. During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than +25°C. The EVM is designed to operate properly with certain components above +25°C as long as the input and output ranges are maintained. These components include but are not limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors. These types of devices can be identified using the EVM schematic located in the EVM User's Guide. When placing measurement probes near these devices during operation, please be aware that these devices may be very warm to the touch.
