USER GUIDE UG:001 VI Chip BCM Evaluation Board Contents Page Introduction Introduction 1 The evaluation board offers a convenient means to evaluate the performance of the Vicor BCM bus Features 1 converter and has been optimized for user convenience. Refer to the appropriate BCM data sheet for performance and operating limits. The data sheets are available for downloading at: Set Up 3 www.vicorpower.com. +IN, IN 3 It is important to remember the fast response of most BCMs can readily show the limitations of the source, load and associated wiring connected to the evaluation board. Care should be exercised to + OUT, OUT 3 minimize stray source and load impedances in order to fully exercise the BCM. Output Voltage Please refer to Figure 1 for locations of the input and output connections as viewed from the Measurement Jack (J1) 3 component side. Wires may be soldered directly to the pads instead of ring lugs if desired to minimize Paralleling 3 circuit impedances.
