User manual for the NIS5x2x GEVB evaluation board to test eFuse features like overvoltage, overcurrent, slew rate, and thermal shutdown.
This manual guides users through testing the NIS5x2x line of eFuses using the GEVB evaluation board. It covers features such as overvoltage protection, overcurrent protection, controlled slew rate, and thermal shutdown. The board includes multiple connectors, LEDs, current limit resistors, and jumper options for various test configurations.
Tests include hot plug, controlled slew rate, overvoltage clamp, thermal shutdown reset, crowbar short circuit, and power-up into short circuit. Each test is described with setup instructions and expected behavior, including waveform observations and reset procedures.
The manual documents the use of this board with the NIS5020 latching eFuse.
Green and yellow LEDs indicate whether the eFuse enable pin voltage is high (device enabled) or low (device disabled).
