7. SMM105 Windows GUI

Version 1.1.0

 
Test setup begins by programming the SMM105 using Summit's Windows GUI software. Figure 4 displays the SMM105 GUI opened to the ADOC tab. Here the LDO Nominal, High and Low voltages are set. The Nominal voltage is the steady state operating voltage, the High and Low settings for voltage margining. Selecting the 'Enable Control' engages the SMM105's TRIM output to ADOC the LDO. Performance results were taken with and without the SMM105 engaged to the DC-DC converter and LDO. To Margin High or Low select the choice from the 'Channel A' drop-down menu (Figure 4) and click on the 'Write' button below it to start the Margin event. Click the 'Read' button to ensure the output was Margined.
