USING THE EVALUATION BOARD
POWERING UP THE EVALUATION BOARD 
The ADP2107 evaluation board is supplied fully assembled and 
tested. Before applying power to the evaluation board, follow 
the procedures in this section. 
Jumper J1 
Before turning on the ADP2107 evaluation board, make sure 
that all the components are present, but Jumper J1 is removed. 
Input Power Source 
Before connecting the power source to the ADP2107 evaluation 
board, make sure that it is turned off. If the input power source 
includes a current meter, use that meter to monitor the input 
current. Connect the positive terminal of the power source to 
the V
IN
 terminal on the evaluation board and the negative terminal 
of the power source to the GND terminal of the evaluation board. 
If the power source does not include a current meter, connect  
a current meter in series with the input source voltage. Connect  
the positive lead (+) of the power source to the ammeter positive 
(+) connection, the negative lead (−) of the power source to the 
GND terminal on the evaluation board, and the negative lead (−) of 
the ammeter to the V
IN
 terminal on the board.  
Output Load 
Although the ADP2107 evaluation board can sustain the sudden 
connection of the load, it is possible to damage the load if it is not 
properly connected. Make sure that the board is turned off before 
connecting the load. If the load includes an ammeter, or if the 
current is not measured, connect the load directly to the 
evaluation board with the positive (+) load connection to the 
V
OUT
 terminal and the negative (−) load connection to the GND 
terminal. If an ammeter is used, connect it in series with the 
load; that is, connect the positive (+) ammeter terminal to the 
evaluation board V
OUT
 terminal, the negative (−) ammeter 
terminal to the positive (+) load terminal, and the negative (−) 
load terminal to the evaluation board GND terminal. Once the 
load is connected, make sure that it is set to the proper current 
before powering the ADP2107 evaluation board. 
Input and Output Voltmeters 
Measure the input and output voltages with voltmeters. Make 
sure that the voltmeters are connected to the appropriate 
evaluation board terminals, not the load or power source. If the 
voltmeters are not connected directly to the evaluation board, 
the measured voltages are incorrect due to the voltage drop 
across the leads and/or connections between the evaluation 
board, the power source, and/or the load. 
Connect the input voltage measuring the voltmeter positive 
terminal (+) to the evaluation board V
IN
 terminal and the 
negative (−) terminal to the evaluation board GND terminal. 
Connect the output voltage measuring voltmeter positive (+) 
terminal to the evaluation board V
OUT
 terminal and the negative 
(−) terminal to the evaluation board GND terminal. 
Turning on the Evaluation Board  
Once the power source and the load are connected to the 
ADP2107 evaluation board, it can be powered up for operation. 
Slowly increase the input power source voltage until the input 
voltage exceeds the minimum input operating voltage of 2.7 V. 
Insert Jumper J1, and check to see if the output voltage rises to 
the regulated output voltage (1.8 V for the ADP2107-1.8-EVAL and 
2.5 V for the ADP2107-EVAL). If the load is not already enabled, 
enable the load, and check that it is drawing the proper current and 
that the output voltage maintains voltage regulation. 
MEASURING EVALUATION BOARD 
PERFORMANCE 
Measuring Output Voltage Ripple 
To observe the output voltage ripple, place an oscilloscope 
probe across the output capacitor (C3/C4) with the probe 
ground lead at the negative (−) capacitor terminal and the probe 
tip at the positive (+) capacitor terminal. Set the oscilloscope to ac, 
20 mV/division, and 2 μs/division time base. In the PWM mode of 
operation, the output voltage ripple is small (< 20 mV), but in PFM 
mode, the output voltage ripple can be as large as 50 mV. 
Measuring the Switching Waveform 
To observe the switching waveform with an oscilloscope, place 
the oscilloscope probe tip at the end of the inductor that is 
connected to the LX pins with the probe ground at GND.  
Set the scope to dc, 2 V/division, and 2 μs/division time base. 
The switching waveform should alternate between 0 V and the 
approximate input voltage. 
Measuring Load Regulation 
Load regulation must be tested by increasing the load at the output 
and looking at the change in output voltage. To minimize voltage 
drop, use short, low-resistance wires, especially for heavy loads. 
Measuring Line Regulation 
Vary the input voltage and examine the change in the output voltage.  
Measuring Efficiency 
The efficiency, η, is measured by comparing the input power 
with the output power.

Measure the input and output voltages as close as possible to the 
input and output capacitors to reduce the effect of IR drops. 
Measuring Inductor Current 
The inductor current can be measured by removing one end of 
the inductor from its pad and connecting a current loop in 
series with it. A current probe can then be used to measure the 
current flowing through the current loop, as shown in Figure 2.
