General Texas Instruments High Voltage Evaluation (TI HV EMV) User Safety Guidelines
WARNING
Always follow TI's set-up and application instructions, including use of all interface components within their
recommended electrical rated voltage and power limits. Always use electrical safety precautions to help
ensure your personal safety and those working around you. Contact TI's Product Information Center
http://ti.com/customer support for further information.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WARNING
Failure to follow warnings and instructions may result in personal injury,
property damage or death due to electrical shock and burn hazards.
The term TI HV EVM refers to an electronic device typically provided as an open framed, unenclosed
printed circuit board assembly. It is intended strictly for use in development laboratory environments,
solely for qualified professional users having training, expertise and knowledge of electrical safety risks in
development and application of high voltage electrical circuits. Any other use and/or application are strictly
prohibited by Texas Instruments. If you are not suitable qualified, you should immediately stop from further
use of the HV EVM.
www.ti.com
WARNING
While the EVM is energized, never touch the EVM or its electrical
circuits, as they could be at high voltages capable of causing
electrical shock hazard.
3. Personal Safety
a. Wear personal protective equipment e.g. latex gloves or safety glasses with side shields or protect
EVM in an adequate lucent plastic box with interlocks from accidental touch.
Limitation for safe use:
EVMs are not to be used as all or part of a production unit.
User's Guide
SLUUC29B – August 2019 – Revised October 2019
This user's guide describes the specifications, board connection description, operation, and use of the
TPS92520EVM-074. The EVM consists of a CV boost stage, creating a regulated voltage rail that is used
by two TPS92520 ICs. The two TPS92520 ICs then create four current regulated channels for driving
strings of LEDs. The EVM is a representative of a lighting module suitable for automotive applications
creating advanced lighting features.
The TPS92520-Q1 buck current regulator device implements an adjustable constant on-time, valley
detect, current-mode control technique with programmable pseudo-fixed-frequency operation. Additional
features include the following:
• Wide input voltage range (4.5 V to 65 V)
• Analog adjustable output current setting
• Fault reporting
• Internal and external PWM dimming
The TPS92682-Q1 boost controller device implements a fixed-frequency peak-current mode control
technique with programmable switching frequency, slope compensation, and soft-start. Additional features
include the following:
• Wide input voltage range (4.5 V to 65 V)
• Programmable spread spectrum frequency modulation
• Programmable fault handling
• Adjustable output current setting
Optionally, to exercise advanced lighting control features, an accompanying EVM to the TPS92520 ECU
EVM, LMM EVM PWR901, can be used. The TPS92662-Q1 and TPS92663-Q1 (LMM, LED Matrix
Manager) devices include series-connected integrated switches for bypassing individual LEDs. The
individual sub-strings allow the device to accept either single or multiple current sources for bypassing
high current LEDs.
A complete schematic diagram, printed circuit board layouts, and bill of materials are included in this
document.

2 Description
The TPS92520EVM-074 solution provides four current-regulated channels, providing up to 49.5 V, 1.6 A
for each channel (expandable voltage range with board modification), from a 12 V (nom) input. The four
TPS92520 channels and one dual-phase TPS92682 CV (constant voltage) channel are all configurable via
serial peripheral interface (SPI). The maximum output voltage of the TPS92682 CV boost can be
physically adjusted by modifying R34 (see Table 1). The EVM is designed to operate with an input voltage
in the range of 6 V to 40 V and provides a maximum total output power of 100 W (maximum of 50 W per
channel). For example, if one channel is operated at 50 W, the total power of the other three channels
must not exceed 50 W. The TPS92520EVM-074 provides a unique high-efficiency, SPI-programmable
solution with fault handling and reporting. It also includes standard ECU features: CAN (physical layer)
interface and reverse battery protection.
The EVM is operated via a standard TI LaunchPad (MSP-EXP432E401Y) and does not function if the
launchpad and GUI are not installed. It is possible to use your own or a different SPI controller after
reviewing the documentation for all parts in detail.
Figure 1 shows the block diagram of the system.
2.2 Warnings
Observe the following precaution when using the TPS92520EVM-074 evaluation module. Do not leave the
EVM powered when unattended.

NOTE: The maximum boost voltage can be adjusted by modifying a resistor value - see Table 1.
• The TPS92682 fault status can be updated by selecting the Read 682 Faults button. A description of
the faults can be found in the TPS92682-Q1 Dual-Channel Constant-Voltage and Constant-Current
Controller with SPI Interface Data Sheet.
• TPS92662 and TPS92663 Control Box (3): This window is used to adjust the Phase and Duty Cycle
of the Matrix Manager channels. (not available if companion EVM TPS92663EVM6-901 is not present).
For a full explanation of the TPS92662 and TPS92663 operation, refer to the High-Brightness LED
Matrix Manager for Automotive Headlight Systems Data Sheet and TPS92663-Q1 6-Channel
Enhanced LED Matrix Manager-Automotive Headlight Systems Data Sheet. The basic operation is as
follows: Each LED on the selected matrix device is duty cycle-controlled to the duty cycle set by the
slider. The phase of the duty cycle between each LED segment is set with the Phase Shift field and
the "set to 85" check box. For example, if the phase is set to 0, and the duty cycle to 200, each LMM
LED segment is turned on at the same time for the same duty cycle. If the phase is set to 85 (for
example, via the check box), each LED is still on for a duty cycle length of 200, but the turn on time of
each LED segment is shifted by a count of 85.
• Demo Control Box (4): This window shows the four demo modes (DRL, AFLS, ADB and Sequential
Turn) are enabled when the TPS92663EVM6-901 is connected. These highlight headlight features that
can be implemented using the Lighting Matrix Manager devices: TPS92662 and TPS92663. Set the
corresponding Jumper setting and move the physical jumper (J11) to match the selected location.
Ensure the channels are off when moving the jumper. Next, select the desired demo mode: DRL,
AFLS, ADB, OR Sequential Turn. The following is a brief description of the four demo modes:
– DRL (Daytime running light): Performs a fade and fill up and down the DRL channel.
– AFLS (Adaptive Front Lighting System): Simulates an adjustment to the beam shape and direction.
Adjust the slider to adjust the beam.
– ADB (Adaptive Driving Beam): Adjust the slider to control the location of an area of the beam
having a reduced intensity.
– Sequential Turn: Implements a swiping turn signal.
• Jumper Configuration and Register Access (5): Set the jumper to match the EVM configuration.
Use the Register Access buttons to open a terminal window for direct command control of the
TPS92520 and Lighting Matrix Manager (TPS92662 and TPS92663) devices. Section 8.1.3 describes
the register direct access window.
