Getting to Know the Hardware

3 Getting to Know the Hardware

3.1 Board Overview

The KITPF3000FRDMEVM Evaluation Board (EVB) is an easy-to-use circuit board allowing the user to exercise all the functions of the
PF3000 and PF3001 Power Management IC. This board can be used to emulate the PF3001.

A FRDM-KL25Z is mounted to the EVB as an integral component. The FRDM-KL25Z serves as an interface between the KITPF3000GUI
and the PF3000 or between the PF3001GUI and the PF3001. Analog-to-Digital Convertors (ADCs) in the FRDM-KL25Z monitor the
regulator voltages through the GUI.

3.2 Board Features

The board features are as follows:

• PF3000 and PF3001 Power Management IC

• Input supply using wall adaptor or lab power supply through banana jacks

• Integrated FRDM-KL25Z as communication link between the EVB and a PC

• Two 1 Amp E-Loads with configurable current

3.3 Device Features

This evaluation board features the following Freescale products:
