Quick Start
The steps in this chapter can be followed to quickly prepare the TPA0103 audio
amplifier EVM for use. Using the TPA0103 with the TI Plug-N-Play Audio
Amplifier Evaluation Platform is a quick and easy way to connect power, signal
and control inputs, and signal outputs to the EVM using standard connectors.
The audio amplifier evaluation module can also be used stand-alone by
making connections directly to the module pins, and it can be wired directly into
existing circuits or equipment.
The platform switch and jumper settings shown in Tables 2–1 and the
TPA0103 EVM jumper settings shown in Table 2–2 are typical for the TP A0103
EVM.
