Soft-Start Voltage Monitoring – TP1, TP2, and TP3
TPS53125EVM-599 provides two test points for measuring the soft-start ramp voltages. TP1 monitors the
soft-start ramp of Channel 1. TP2 monitors the soft-start ramp of Channel 2. To use TP1 or TP2, connect
an oscilloscope probe between TP1 or TP2 and TP3.
