Using a Bench Top Supply to Monitor the Device Current
One of the highlights of the SN75LVCP600S is the power savings features of the device. To observe
these power saving features this EVM design includes the option of monitoring the current draw of the
device. To enable this feature, the following steps must be taken:
1. Un-install the ferrite bead located at L1.
2. Obtain a 3.3-V power supply (connect current meter in series if power supply does not also display
current, or if greater resolution is needed than the power supply can provide). Connect power supply
3 V to pin 1 of the two pin header JMP1. GND from the power supply can be connected to pin 2 of
header JMP1.
