EVM Description and Basics www.ti.com 2.1.1 USB-MODEVM Interface Board The simple diagram of Figure 1 shows only the basic features of the USB-MODEVM Interface board. When connecting the TLV320AIC3107EVM to the USB-MODEVM, use care to avoid bending the connecting pins. The two boards can only be connected in one way. It is suggested to first align with the 10-pin connectors (J3 on the TLV320AIC3107EVM and J18A on the USB-MODEVM) and then gently push all the connectors together until the boards a

www.ti.com TLV320AIC3107EVM-K Setup and Installation • Laboratory power supply When powered from the USB connection, JMP6 must have a shunt from pins 1–2 (this is the default factory configuration). When powered from 6 Vdc-10 Vdc, either through the J8 terminal block or J9 barrel jack, JMP6 must have a shunt installed on pins 2–3. If power is applied in any of these ways, onboard regulators generate the required supply voltages, and no further power supplies are necessary. If laboratory supplies
