The Texas Instruments TPS61054EVM-273 evaluation module uses the TPS61054 synchronous boostconverter-based high-power WLED driver. This WLED driver requires an input voltage between 2.5 V and6 V. The driver is configurable by on-board jumpers to either regulate output voltage or the output current.The goal of the EVM is to facilitate evaluation of the TPS61054 IC.
Table 1 provides a summary of the TPS61054EVM-273 performance specifications. All specifications aregiven for an ambient temperature of 25 °C.

To aid user customization of the EVM, the board was designed with devices having 0603 or largerfootprints. A real implementation likely occupies less total board space.
Changing components can improve or degrade EVM performance. For example, adding a physicallylarger inductor with lower DCR improves efficiency.
This section describes the jumpers and connectors on the EVM as well as how properly to connect, setup, and use the TPS61054EVM-273.
This header is for the positive input supply voltage to the converter. The leads to the input supply shouldbe twisted and kept as short as possible to minimize EMI transmission and reduce inductive voltage droopat a load transient event.
This is the return connection for the input power supply of the converter.
This header connects to the FLASH_SYNC pin of the IC and to GND. It can be used to measure thevoltage on the FLASH_SYNC pin and/or apply an external signal to the FLASH_SYNC pin.

Input/Output Connector Descriptions
This header can be used to connect an external pulse generator to drive the gate of transistor Q1.Transistor Q1, along with components R2–R4, can be used to perform load transient testing and confirmstability.
This header connects to the drain of transistor Q1.
This header connects to the VOUT pin IC. In voltage-regulation mode, it can be used to measure theregulated output voltage and connect an external load resistance. In current-regulation mode, it connectsto the WLED cathode and can be used to measure the high-side WLED voltage.
This header connects to the LED pin of the IC. In current-regulation mode, it connects to the WLED anodeand can be used to measure the low-side WLED voltage. It is not used in voltage-regulation mode.
This header connects to the board ground plane and is the return for the VOUT header.
This jumper can be used to connect the TX-TOFF pin high (to the input voltage) or low (to ground).
This jumper can be used to connect the MODE0 pin high (to the input voltage) or low (to ground). See thedevice data sheet (SLUS760 ) for an explanation of configuration settings.
This jumper can be used to connect the MODE1 pin high (to the input voltage) or low (to ground). See thedevice data sheet (SLUS760 ) for an explanation of configuration settings.
This jumper is in series with power WLED D1. For the WLED to turn on, this jumper must be shorted.Placing an ammeter in series allows the user to measure current. The jumper in its default position isinstalled.
This push-button switch connects to the IC FLASH_SYNC pin and allows the user to initiate a WLED flashevent.

Connect to J1 and J2 an input power supply rated at least 2-A and set to provide between 2.5 V and 6 V.The leads should be very short. Additional input capacitance on the C4 pads may be required in order tomitigate the inductive voltage droop that occurs at torch-current start-up and especially when the flashpulse occurs. Turn on the power supply.
WARNINGWARNING: This EVM has a white LED that flashes very brightly.Protective eye wear and/or a diffuser to cover the white LED duringoperation is recommended.

This section provides the TPS61054EVM-273 board layout and illustrations.
Board layout is critical for all high-frequency, switch-mode power supplies. Figure 7 through Figure 11show the board layout for the TPS61054EVM-273 PCB. The nodes with high switching frequencies andcurrents are kept as short as possible to minimize trace inductance. Careful attention has been given tothe routing of high-frequency current loops, and a single-point grounding scheme is used. See the devicedata sheet (SLUS760 ) for specific layout guidelines.

Operation of this equipment in other environments maycause interference with radio communications, in which case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures maybe required to correct this interference.
EVM WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS
It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of 2.5 V to 6 V and the output voltage range of 4.85 V to 5.15 V.Exceeding the specified input range may cause unexpected operation and/or irreversible damage to the EVM. If there are questionsconcerning 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 85 °C. The EVM is designed to operateproperly with certain components above 85 °C as long as the input and output ranges are maintained.
