External LED Power
This connector is where the external +5V supply is attached to power the two RGB LEDs.

TCA7408 GPIO
This is a pin out of the four unused GPIO pins from the TCA7408, GPIO4-GPIO7.

Feedback loop
For the TPL0401A to function as a voltage reference circuit the negative feedback loop must be
shorted, placing a jumper across this header will short the inverting input to the output.

LED or Op-amp
This header controls what the TPL0401B is attached to. When shorted across position 1 and 2 the
TPL0401B is connected in series with the external resistor to control the current through the LED
driver. When shorted across position 2 and 3 the TPL0401B is connected to the inverting input of the
op-amp to change the gain of the circuit.

Op-amp input
This header controls the input to the non-inverting pin of the LMV321. When shorted across position 1
and 2, the TPL0401A in a voltage divider mode is attached to the non-inverting input of the LVM321.
This setup is used to test the voltage reference setup. When shorted across pins 2 and 3, the SMA
connector is attached to the non-inverting input.

Software Setup
The EVM does not require any software set up to operate in the LED mode. The keys SW1-SW4 control
the blinking rate of the LEDs and the color mixing of the LEDs, without any additional software setup.
