Introduction
The Texas Instruments TPS6116xEVM-243 evaluation module contains a TPS61160 or TPS61161
integrated circuit (IC), supporting active and passive components and either 6 or 10 white light-emitting
diodes (WLEDs) in series. The goal of this EVM is to facilitate evaluation of the TPS61160 or TPS61161
in a typical WLED application.

Modifications
To aid user customization of the EVM, the board was designed with devices having 0603 or larger
footprints. A real-world implementation should occupy less total board space.
The inductor and compensation components (R1, C2) were designed for the VIN range shown in Table 1.
Using a different input voltage range may require resizing of the inductor and/or the compensation
components. Also, changing components can improve or degrade EVM performance. For example, using
inductors with larger dc resistances lowers efficiency of the solution.
The other members of the TPS6116x IC family have the same footprint.
NOTE: When modifying the REV A version of this PCB, it is strongly recommended that you heat
the PCB on a hot plate before using a soldering iron to remove/replace components,
especially the input capacitor and inductor. Otherwise, the expansion when soldering and
contraction when cooling of the wide traces/places connecting these components to the IC
pins can damage the IC. For further explanation and guidance, see the TI application report
QFN/SON PCB Attachment (SLUA271).

This header is the return connection for the load.
2.1.5
J5-USB-TO-GPIO Connector
This connector is for the 10-pin ribbon cable that connects the EVM to the USB-TO-GPIO interface box. It
is only used when the software is used to perform dimming.
2.1.6
J6-FB
This header connects to the FB pin of the IC through resistor R4. Resistor R4 is unpopulated.
2.1.7
JP1-ON/CTRL
Installing this jumper ties the CTRL pin to VIN, and enables the device. Removing the jumper allows the
internal pulldown resistor to pull CTRL to ground, which disables the device. The jumper should be
removed if using an external signal to perform dimming.
2.1.8
JP2-Open LED
Installing this jumper places the WLEDs in the boost converter feedback path and allows current to flow
through the WLEDs. Removing the jumper removes the WLEDs from the boost converter feedback path.
With this jumper removed and jumper JP1 installed, the overvoltage protection circuit of the IC clamps the
boost converter output to 38 V (typ).
WARNING
This EVM has white LEDs that shine very brightly. Protective eye
wear and/or a diffuser to cover the white LED is recommended.
2.2
Hardware Requirements
This EVM requires an external power supply capable of providing 3 V to 18 V at 1 A.
To change the default current value (i.e., implement dimming), the user can apply either a PWM or digital
control signal to CTRL. Both signals change the feedback voltage at the FB pin of the IC so that the IC
performs analog dimming. A function generator capable of driving the CTRL pin with 1.2 V to VIN
amplitude and 5-kHz to 100-kHz PWM signal is required for PWM-controlled dimming. The user also can
implement dimming by using a digital control signal. The EVM kit includes a PC software compact disk
(CD) and USB-TO-GPIO interface box which, when installed on a personal computer (PC) and connected
to the EVM, allows the user to communicate with the EVM via a GUI interface. The minimum PC
requirements are:
• Windows® 2000 or Windows XP operating system
• USB port
• Minimum of 30 MB of free hard disk space (100 MB recommended)
• Minimum of 256 MB of RAM

Hardware Setup
After connecting the power supply between J1 and J2, turning on the power supply, and installing JP1 and
JP2, the EVM regulates the default current per Table 1 through the WLEDs. Additional input capacitance
may be required in order to mitigate the inductive voltage droop that occurs at start-up and/or during a
load transient event.
In order to implement analog dimming via a PWM signal, remove the jumper on JP1 and the 10-pin ribbon
cable from J5, if installed, and perform the following steps in any sequence:
• Connect the power supply between J1 and J2 and turn on the power supply.
• Make sure that JP2's jumper is installed.
• Connect the appropriately configured function generator to the CTRL side of JP1.
The PWM signal's duty cycle is directly proportional to the regulated current.
To implement analog dimming by sending the digital control via a PC running the TPS6116x Controller
software and USB-TO-GPIO interface box, remove the jumper or the function generator on JP1, and
perform the following steps in any sequence:
• Connect one end of the USB-TO-GPIO box to the PC using the USB cable and the other end to J5 of
the TPS6116xEVM using the supplied 10-pin ribbon cable as shown in the following illustration. The
connectors on the ribbon cable are keyed to prevent incorrect installation.
• Connect the power supply between J1 and J2 and turn on the power supply.
• Make sure that JP2's jumper is installed.
• Run the software as explained in the next section.

NOTE: This installation page is best viewed with the Microsoft™ Internet Explorer browser (It may
not work correctly with other browsers)
Click on the install button; your PC gives you a security warning and asks if you want to install this
application. Select Install to proceed. If a pre-release or Beta version is currently installed on your PC, you
must uninstall this version of the software before installing the final version from either the CD or the TI
Web site.
With both types of installation, the software attempts to install the Microsoft Dot Net Framework 2.0 (if it is
not already installed) This framework is required for the software to run.
Immediately following installation, the software automatically runs.
To run the software after installation, go to
Start → all programs → Texas Instruments, Inc. → TPS6116x Controller EVM Software.
At start-up, the software first checks the firmware version of the USB-TO-GPIO adapter box. If an incorrect
firmware version is installed, the software automatically searches on the Internet (if connected) for
updates. If a new update is available, the software notifies the user of the update, and downloads and
installs the software. Note that after the firmware is updated, the user must disconnect and then reconnect
the USB cable between the adapter and PC, as instructed during the installation process. The host PC
software also automatically searches on the Internet (if connected) for updates. If a new update is
available, the software notifies the user of the update, downloads and installs it.
NOTE:
VeriSign™ Code Signing is used to prevent any malicious code from changing this
application. If at any time in the future the binaries are modified, the code will no longer
attempt to run.
The TPS6116x IC has a 5-bit register that stores the feedback voltage to which the error amplifier will
regulate the FB pin. Using the EasyScale™ protocol, the user can program a separate digital IC to
generate a signal that changes this register to one of 32 discrete settings, thereby changing the FB
voltage and subsequent regulated WLED current. The software provides a GUI interface which allows the
user to change the bits directly or by a drop-down box. After changing the bits, the WRITE button must be
pressed. See a screen shot of the software in Figure 2.

Board Layout
This section provides the TPS6116xEVM-243 board layout and illustrations.
Board layout is critical for all high-frequency, switch-mode power supplies. Figure 4 through Figure 4 show
the board layout for the TPS6116xEVM-243 printed circuit board (PCB). The nodes with high-switching
frequencies and currents are kept as short as possible to minimize trace inductance. Careful attention
Was given to the routing of high-frequency current loops: a single-point grounding scheme is used. See
the data sheet for specific layout guidelines.

You have unique knowledge concerning Federal, State and local regulatory requirements (including but not limited to Food and Drug
Administration regulations, if applicable) which relate to your products and which relate to your use (and/or that of your employees,
affiliates, contractors or designees) of the EVM for evaluation, testing and other purposes.
You have full and exclusive responsibility to assure the safety and compliance of your products with all such laws and other applicable
regulatory requirements, and also to assure the safety of any activities to be conducted by you and/or your employees, affiliates,
contractors or designees, using the EVM. Further, you are responsible to assure that any interfaces (electronic and/or mechanical)
between the EVM and any human body are designed with suitable isolation and means to safely limit accessible leakage currents to
minimize the risk of electrical shock hazard.
You will employ reasonable safeguards to ensure that your use of the EVM will not result in any property damage, injury or death, even
if the EVM should fail to perform as described or expected.
You will take care of proper disposal and recycling of the EVM’s electronic components and packing materials.
Certain Instructions. It is important to operate this EVM within TI’s recommended specifications and environmental considerations per the
user guidelines. Exceeding the specified EVM ratings (including but not limited to input and output voltage, current, power, and
environmental ranges) may cause property damage, personal injury or death. If there are questions concerning these ratings please contact
a TI field representative prior to connecting interface electronics including input power and intended loads. Any loads applied outside of the
specified output range may result in unintended and/or inaccurate operation and/or possible permanent damage to the EVM and/or
interface electronics. Please consult the EVM User's Guide prior to connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the
load specification, please contact a TI field representative. During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures
greater than 60°C as long as the input and output are maintained at a normal ambient operating temperature. These components include
but are not limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors which can be identified using the
EVM schematic located in the EVM User's Guide. When placing measurement probes near these devices during normal operation, please
be aware that these devices may be very warm to the touch. As with all electronic evaluation tools, only qualified personnel knowledgeable
in electronic measurement and diagnostics normally found in development environments should use these EVMs.
Agreement to Defend, Indemnify and Hold Harmless. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold TI, its licensors and their representatives
harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, expenses, costs and liabilities (collectively, "Claims") arising out of or in
connection with any use of the EVM that is not in accordance with the terms of the agreement. This obligation shall apply whether Claims
arise under law of tort or contract or any other legal theory, and even if the EVM fails to perform as described or expected.
Safety-Critical or Life-Critical Applications. If you intend to evaluate the components for possible use in safety critical applications (such
as life support) where a failure of the TI product would reasonably be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, such as devices
which are classified as FDA Class III or similar classification, then you must specifically notify TI of such intent and enter into a separate
Assurance and Indemnity Agreement.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
