Setup Procedure
TheEVkitisfullyassembledandtested.Followthesteps
below to verify board operation:
1) Place the EV kit hardware on a nonconductive
surface to ensure that nothing on the PCB gets
shorted to the workspace.
2) Ensure that jumper/shunt J1 is installed, which
provides power to the device.
3) Check the following startup configuration jumpers/
shunts, which result in the associated behavior:
a. J8 (PWM_START1) = GND and J7 (PWM_
START0) = VCC. Defines a power-on-reset (POR)
PWMdutycycleof75%.
b. J2(FREQ_START)=VCC.DefinesaPORPWM
frequency of 25kHz.
c. J3 (SPIN_START) = VCC. Defines the POR spin-
upbehaviorfor100%dutycycleuntiltwotachom-
eter pulses or 1s (MAX).
d. J4 (WATCHDOG_START) = GND. Defines a
disabled I
2
C watchdog on POR.
e. J5 (ADD0) = GND and J6 (ADD1) = GND. Defines
a POR slave address of 40h.
