Modifications
The printed-circuit board (PCB) for this EVM is designed to accommodate some modifications by the user.
Additional input and output capacitors can be added.

1.2.1

Input and Output Capacitors
C4 is provided for an additional input capacitor. This capacitor is not required for proper operation but canbe used to reduce the input voltage ripple.
C5, C6, C7, and C8 are provided for additional output capacitors. These capacitors are not required forproper operation but can be used to reduce the output voltage ripple and to improve the load transient
response. The total output capacitance must remain within the recommended range in the data sheet(SLVSD11) for proper operation.

The PG output appears on pin 1 of this header with a convenient ground on pin 2
EN pin input jumper. Place the supplied jumper across ON and EN to turn on the IC.
Place the jumper across OFF and EN to turn off the IC.
JP2 – PG Pullup PG pin pullup voltage jumper. Place the supplied jumper on JP2 to connect the PG
Voltagepin pullup resistor to VIN. Alternatively, the jumper can be removed and a different
voltage can be supplied on pin 1 to pullup the PG pin to a different level. This
externally applied voltage should remain below 6 V.

2.2

Setup
To operate the EVM, set jumpers JP1 and JP2 to the desired position per Section 2.1. Connect the input
supply to J1 and J3 and connect the load to J4 and J6.

Board Layout
This section provides the TPS82084EVM-672 board layout and illustrations in Figure 2 through Figure 7.
The Gerbers are available on the EVM product page: TPS82084EVM-672. Rev B of the PCB changed theland pattern of the TPS82084 to use solder mask defined (SMD) pads. This gives better assembly results
during reflow.

Regulatory Notices:
3.1 United States
3.1.1

Notice applicable to EVMs not FCC-Approved:This kit is designed to allow product developers to evaluate electronic components, circuitry, or software associated with the kit
to determine whether to incorporate such items in a finished product and software developers to write software applications foruse with the end product. This kit is not a finished product and when assembled may not be resold or otherwise marketed unless
all required FCC equipment authorizations are first obtained. Operation is subject to the condition that this product not cause
harmful interference to licensed radio stations and that this product accept harmful interference. Unless the assembled kit isdesigned to operate under part 15, part 18 or part 95 of this chapter, the operator of the kit must operate under the authority of
an FCC license holder or must secure an experimental authorization under part 5 of this chapter.
3.1.2

For EVMs annotated as FCC – FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Part 15 Compliant:

CAUTION
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may notcause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority tooperate the equipment.
FCC Interference Statement for Class A EVM devices
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required tocorrect the interference at his own expense.
SPACERSPACERSPACERSPACERSPACERSPACERSPACERSPACERFCC Interference Statement for Class B EVM devices
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordancewith the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or moreof the following measures:••••

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

3.2 Canada
3.2.1

For EVMs issued with an Industry Canada Certificate of Conformance to RSS-210

Concerning EVMs Including Radio Transmitters:
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
Concernant les EVMs avec appareils radio:
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation
est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit
accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
Concerning EVMs Including Detachable Antennas:
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser)
gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna typeand its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary forsuccessful communication. This radio transmitter has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types
listed in the user guide with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated.
Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibitedfor use with this device.
Concernant les EVMs avec antennes détachables
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type etd'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage
radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope
rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante. Le
présent émetteur radio a été approuvé par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d'antenne énumérés dans lemanuel d’usage et ayant un gain admissible maximal et l'impédance requise pour chaque type d'antenne. Les types d'antenne
non inclus dans cette liste, ou dont le gain est supérieur au gain maximal indiqué, sont strictement interdits pour l'exploitation del'émetteur
