Jumper and Connector Set-Up
This section describes the jumpers and connectors on the EVM, as well as how to properly connect, set
up, and use the TPS61197EVM.
2.1
Input/Output Connector Description
J1 - Input: This header is the power input terminals for the converter. The terminal block provides a power
(VIN) and ground (GND) connection to allow the user to attach the EVM to a cable harness.
J2 - Output: This header provides connections to the boost converter output (VOUT) and the drain of
dimming MOS. This header can be connected to WLEDs string to facilitate evaluation.
J4 - Ground: This header connects to GND.
JP1 - EN: This jumper is used to enable the device. Connecting pin1 and pin2 will toggle the EN high and
enable the device. Connecting pin2 and pin3 will toggle the EN low and disable the device.
JP2 - PWM: This jumper is used to set PWM control. Connecting pin1 and pin2 will send high signal to
device and set full on. Connecting pin2 and pin3 will send low signal to device and set off.
JP3 - FAULT: This jumper is used to set PWM control. Connecting pin1 and pin2 will send high signal to
device and set full on. Connecting pin2 and pin3 will send low signal to device and set off.
2.2
TPS61197EVM Configuration
This EVM requires an external power supply capable of providing 10 V to 30 V at 5 A. To change the
default current value (that is, to implement dimming), the user can apply a PWM signal to JP2-pin2.
The hardware connections of TPS61197EVM:
• The DC power supply is connected between J1-pin1 and J1-pin2.
• The LED array is connected to the J2.
• The one single PWM dimming signal can be connected to JP2-pin2.

Operation
www.ti.com
The range of dimming frequency is 90 Hz to 22 kHz. The output overvoltage protection is set to 60 V,
which can be adjusted by R8 in SCH, then can drive different series number of LEDs. To ensure the
TPS61197EVM operates properly, the minimum output voltage of the board should be more than the input
power voltage. This requires the user to select the LED array carefully to make sure the total forward
voltage of the series LEDs is more than the input voltage.
Figure 1 shows the default configuration of jumpers.

Operation
3.1
Non-Dimming Operation (Default Configuration)
For non-dimming operation of the TPS61197EVM, connect pin1 and pin2 of JP1, JP2. In this default
configuration, the device will power up when power is applied.
3.2
PWM-Dimming Operation
Connect the appropriately configured function generator output between JP2-pin2 and JP2-pin3 (for GND
connection) to control PWM1. The PWM signal's duty cycle is directly proportional to the regulated current.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
