Quick Start List for Platform
Follow these steps when using the TPA0103 EVM with the TI Plug-N-Play

Platform and TPA0103 EVM preparations
1) Ensure that all external power sources are set to
OFF and that the platform
power switch S1 is set to
OFF.
2) Install a TPA0103 module in platform socket U2, taking care to align the
module pins correctly.
3) Use switch S2 to select or bypass the signal conditioning EVM (U1).
Setting the platform and the EVM for Center or L/R, as indicated in the tables
below, will cause the EVM to operate in the center channel mode BTL (speak-
er) when no plug is present in headphone jack J10 and in the L/R single-ended
mode (headphone) when a plug is inserted into platform headphone jack J10.
4) Set the jumpers on the platform as indicated in Table 2–3.

DD
power input connector J6 taking care
to observe marked polarity, or
b) Install a voltage regulator EVM (SLVP097 or equiv.) in platform socket
U6. Install a 9-V battery in B1 or connect a 7 V – 12 V power source
to a platform V
CC
power input J1 or J2 and jumper the appropriate
power input (see platform user’s guide).
