TPA3100D2 EVM Parts List

EVM WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS (continued)

During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than 85°C. The EVM is designed to operate properly with certain components above 85°C as long as the input and output ranges are maintained. These components include but are not limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors. These types of devices can be identified using the EVM schematic located in the EVM User'sGuide. When placing measurement probes near these devices during operation, please be aware that these devices may be very warm to the touch.
