6. Power-up & Measurement Procedure

<p class="MsoListParagraph">1. Connect input power (3.5V < V_IN < 36V) and input ground to VIN and GND test pins respectively.</p> <p class="MsoListParagraph">2. Connect positive end and negative terminals of load to VOUT and GND test pins respectively.</p> <p class="MsoListParagraph">3. There is a 3-pin header “EN” for enable control. To use a jumper at “H” option to tie EN test pin to input power VIN for enabling the device. Inversely, to use a jumper at “L” option to tie EN test pin and ground GND for disabling the device.</p> <p class="MsoListParagraph">4. Verify the output voltage (approximately 1.0V) between VOUT and GND.</p> <p class="MsoListParagraph">5. Connect an external load up to 50mA to the VOUT and GND terminals and verify the output voltage and current.</p>
