The TPS2359EVM was designed with independent input and output banana jacks for up to two each 12-V
input and 3.3-V input power supplies, and up to two each 12-V and 3.3-V output power rails. This provides
the greatest flexibility for configuring the EVM for either ATCA™ or MicroTCA™ applications.
input and 3.3-V input power supplies, and up to two each 12-V and 3.3-V output power rails. This provides
the greatest flexibility for configuring the EVM for either ATCA™ or MicroTCA™ applications.
By connecting the two 12-V inputs and two 3.3-V inputs together, the TPS2359EVM can manage the
application of a single 12-V supply and single 3.3-V supply to two AdvancedMC-like loads. This
configuration allows users to learn about the device operation in non-redundant applications. Driving the
supply inputs independently while ganging together the common potential output nodes demonstrates
operation in redundant systems, albeit through a common controller device. In either case, the user GUI
provides easy access to the internal control bits to complete device configuration for the target application.

As supplied from the factory, the EVM comes with current limits programmed for the requirements of
Management Power and Payload Power control for AdvancedMC™ modules. However, limit thresholds on
the 12-V channels are programmable by the user; see the TPS2359 datasheet (TI Literature Number
SLUS792) for the procedure to establish different limit thresholds via the programming resistors. This
flexibility with the TPS2359 enables use in other, proprietary systems requiring 12-V and 3.3-V supply
control.

Lastly, the EVM features two expansion ports and related jumpers needed to parallel multiple devices
together to create a true redundant system. Additional EVM modules for this purpose can be ordered
