Jumpers and connectors

LP877451Q1EVM has many terminal blocks, jumpers and test points to offer certain flexibility to help users to verify the EVM according to their application conditions. However, the EVM is pre-configured with default jumper settings and users can power up the regulators without the need of jumper modifications. Setting these jumpers correctly for the correct function of the EVM is important. Table 3-1 lists all the terminal blocks on the EVM and Table 3-2 lists the jumpers and their functionality. All the terminal blocks are marked with polarity and Pin 1 of test points / jumpers are marked with white dot for identification purpose. To understand more about the jumper functionality, see the schematic diagrams in Section 6.1.

Table 3-1 Terminal Blocks
Terminal Block Number Terminal Block Name Description
J1 VIN 3.3V 3.3 V External Input Voltage
J17 VIO_LDO Terminal block for VIO_LDO Output
J18 BOOST Terminal block for BOOST Output
J24 BUCK1 Terminal block for BUCK1 Output
J25 BUCK3 Terminal block for BUCK3 Output
J26 BUCK2 Terminal block for BUCK2 Output
J30 J30 USB Connector
J33 VBAT 5 V - 20 V Input
Table 3-2 Configuration Jumpers
Jumper/Connector Number Jumper/Connector Name Configuration Description
J2 WD_DIS Closed (Default) Pull down resistor in CS_SPI pin enabled which will disable Q&A watchdog during the PMIC power up. For this to be effective, USB cable should not be connected to the EVM when the PMIC is powered up. If USB cable is connected before PMIC is powered up, USB MCU will drive this pin high (through CS_SPI_WD at J15) during the startup
Open Q&A watchdog not disabled during the PMIC power up
J3 EN_PVIN_3V3 Closed (Default) Connects PMIC ENABLE pin to PVIN_Bx pins (PVIN_3V3) through a pull up resistor and device gets enabled as soon as 3.3 V is generated/applied
Open If PMIC needs to be enabled through USB/GUI or through pre-regulator PGOOD signal, then this jumper must be kept open
J4 PVIN_3V3 Option 1: Pins 1/3 and 2/4 3V3_PREREG (Default)

PVIN_3V3 connected to preregulator output.

J4-Option-2 must be open and J5 must be open.

Option 2: Pins 5/7 and 6/8 3V3_PS

PVIN_3V3 connected to external 3.3V supply (J1).

J4-Option-1 must be open and J5 must be open.

J5 3V3_USB Open (Default) Either option from J4 must be used.
Closed

PMIC input supply (PVIN_3V3) is generated from USB supply.

J4 jumpers must be open if this jumper is closed.

J6 EN_LVPMIC Option 1: Open (Default) PMIC Enable signal from 3.3 V Input. J3 must be closed
Option 2: Pins 1 and 2 PMIC Enable signal path from GUI interface. J3 must be open if this Option is used
Option 3: Pins 2 and 3 PMIC Enable signal path from pre-regulator PGOOD signal. J3 must be open if this Option is used
J8 VIO_SEL Pins 1 and 2 3.3 V supply generated from USB supply
Pins 2 and 3 (Default) 3.3 V VIO supply generated from PMIC VIO_LDO
J9 SYNCCLKIN Pins 1 and 2 SYNCCLKIN pin connected to MCU clock port (used for testing external clock input signal)
J10 VMON1_SEL Pins 1 and 2 (Default: open) VMON1 reference voltage generated from voltage divider on VIO supply
Pins 2 and 3 (Default: open) VMON1 voltage taken from BUCK1 (1.8 V) output
J12 nRSTOUT Pins 1 and 2 (Default) Connects PMIC nRSTOUT signal to MCU port directly
Pins 2 and 3 Connects PMIC nRSTOUT signal to MCU port through level shifter (series resistors must be mounted if this option is used)
J13 VMON1_GPO1 Pins 1 and 2 (Default: open) Connects PMIC VMON1 signal to MCU port directly
Pins 2 and 3 (Default: open) Connects PMIC VMON1 signal to MCU port through level shifter (series resistors must be mounted if this option is used)
J14 nINT Pins 1 and 2 (Default) Connects PMIC nINT signal to MCU port directly
Pins 2 and 3 Connects PMIC nINT signal to MCU port through level shifter (series resistors must be mounted if this option is used)
J15 SCLK_SPI Pins 1 and 2 (Default) Connects PMIC SCLK_SPI signal to MCU SCLK_SPI port directly
Pins 2 and 3 Connects PMIC SCLK_SPI signal to MCU SCLK_SPI port through a level shifter (series resistors need to be mounted if this option is used)
SDO_SPI Pins 1 and 2 (Default) Connects PMIC SDO_SPI signal to MCU SDO_SPI port directly
Pins 2 and 3 Connects PMIC SDO_SPI signal to MCU SDO_SPI port through a level shifter (series resistors need to be mounted if this option is used)
CS_SPI_WD Pins 1 and 2 (Default) Connects PMIC CS_SPI signal to MCU CS_SPI port directly
Pins 2 and 3 Connects PMIC CS_SPI signal to MCU CS_SPI port through a level shifter (series resistors must be mounted if this option is used)
SDI_SPI Pins 1 and 2 (Default) Connects PMIC SDI_SPI signal to MCU SDI_SPI port directly
Pins 2 and 3 Connects PMIC SDI_SPI signal to MCU SDI_SPI port through a level shifter (series resistors need to be mounted if this option is used)
J16 nERR_GPO2 Pins 1 and 2 (Default) Connects PMIC nERR_GPO signal to MCU port directly
Pins 2 and 3 Connects PMIC nERR_GPO2 signal to MCU port through level shifter (series resistors must be mounted if this option is used)
