The load must be connected to the padDCDCOUT. Wire lengths must be minimized to reduce losses in the wires.Test point PVIN provides a place to monitor the input voltages with GND providing a convenient ground reference.Test point DCDCOUT is used to monitor the output voltage with GND as the ground reference.Jumper Setup is shown in Table 7.Reference Designator Default FunctionMainTestPointsPVIN - PVIN test point at PVIN connectorDCDCOUT - DCDCOUT test point at DCDCOUT connectorV-EN - Test point supplying voltage to EN pinJumpers J-EN V-EN 3-pin headers for enable of NN30312A. Connect EN to GND todisable, to V-EN to enable.J-MODE VREG 3-pin headers to choose mode. Connect MODE to GND to chooseSKIP mode, to VREG to choose FCCM mode.J-FSEL - 3-pin headers to choose frequency. Connect FSEL to GND tochoose 1250kHz, open to choose 750kHz, to VREG to choose250kHz.J-PGOOD open 3-pin headers for pull-up of PGOOD. Connect to VREG to allowpull up to VREG pin, to V-EXT to allow pull up to V-EXT pin.Table 6.
