The LP8863EVM Evaluation Module
1 Introduction
TI's LP8863-Q1 evaluation module (EVM) helps designers evaluate the operation and performance of the
LP8863-Q1 automotive LED backlight driver. The device offers configurability and can be set up through
external resistor options for boost switching frequency, LED current, and PWM out frequency. Internal
register options enable various controls such as brightness inputs, slope control, dimming options, etc.
The EVM contains one LP8863-Q1 LED driver with boost circuit and a Tiva Launchpad evaluation circuit
to provide control signals for LED driver.

2.2 LP8863EVM Setup
External power must be provided to the board. Connect a standard type-A plug from the PC to a Mini-B
plug, which goes to the EVM connector. The I2C-compatible interface program provides all of the controls
that the LP8863-Q1 device requires.

3 Quick Start-Up Procedure
• Connect USB cable between EVB and PC.
• Connect external power supply to VIN: 12 V (typical), 5-A setting, output not enabled yet.
• Run the LP8863 GUI software and click ”Control” icon on left of GUI, then control window appears
as in Figure 9.
Figure 9. GUI Control Window
• Check ”EVM connected” mark on bottom of GUI software.
• Press ”IFSEL Pin” button to select I2C interface: This is not required if register control is not used.
• Enable VIN power supply output: IIN is approximately a couple of mA at normal cases. If higher current
on either power rail is monitored, disable power supply output and begin debugging.
• Click ”Enable Pin” button on GUI software: boost converter starts working, and LEDs stay off without
PWM input.
• On PWM input control, check ”Enable” box of PWM input, select frequency and duty from drop-down
boxes, and press ”Update” button: LED turns on at adjusted brightness level by PWM input.
