1 Evaluation Module Overview
1.1 Introduction
The BQ25756EEVM can be evaluated for up to 180 W range of USB Extended Power Range (EPR) and up to
7 cell Li-Ion battery charging implementing CC/CV profile. Typical applications include Kick eScooters, cordless
power tools, garden tools, robotic lawn mowers, portable power stations, cordless vacuum cleaners, vacuum
robots, solar chargers, and USB-PD EPR applications.
This EVM does not include the EV2400 or USB2ANY interface device and does not provide any electrical
isolation for the digital interfaces. EV2400 or USB2ANY must be ordered separately to evaluate the
BQ25756EEVM and electrical safety considerations must be considered when interfacing between the PC and
the EVM board. When interfacing the EVM to the PC through the digital interfaces, digital isolators with isolation
boundary is recommended.
The BQ25756EEVM has smaller clearance and creepage than normally used on high voltage boards as well as
not having an isolation boundary. If you apply high voltage to this board, all terminals must be considered high
voltage and hazardous live. Electric shock is possible when connecting the board to live wire. The board must be
handled with care by a professional. For safety, use of isolated test equipment with various protection features
(such as overvoltage and overcurrent) is recommended.

1.4 General Texas Instruments High Voltage Evaluation (TI HV EMV) User Safety Guidelines
WARNING
Always follow TI's set-up and application instructions, including use of all interface components within their
recommended electrical rated voltage and power limits. Always use electrical safety precautions to help verify
your personal safety and those working around you. Contact TI's Product Information Center http://ti.com/
customer support for further information.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WARNING
Failure to follow warnings and instructions can result in personal injury, property damage or death
due to electrical shock and burn hazards.
The term TI HV EVM refers to an electronic device typically provided as an open framed, unenclosed printed
circuit board assembly. It is intended strictly for use in development laboratory environments, solely for qualified
professional users having training, expertise and knowledge of electrical safety risks in development and
application of high voltage electrical circuits. Any other use and/or application are strictly prohibited by Texas
Instruments. If you are not suitably qualified, then immediately stop from further use of the HV EVM.
1. Work Area Safety:
a. Keep work area clean and orderly.
b. Qualified observers must be present anytime circuits are energized.
c. Effective barriers and signage must be present in the area where the TI HV EVM and the interface
electronics are energized, indicating operation of accessible high voltages can be present, for the
purpose of protecting inadvertent access.
d. All interface circuits, power supplies, evaluation modules, instruments, meters, scopes, and other related
apparatus used in a development environment exceeding 50Vrms/75VDC must be electrically located
within a protected Emergency Power Off EPO protected power strip.
e. Use stable and non-conductive work surface.
f. Use adequately insulated clamps and wires to attach measurement probes and instruments. No
freehand testing whenever possible.
2. Electrical Safety:
a. As a precautionary measure, a good engineering practice to assume is that the entire EVM can have
fully accessible and active high voltages.
b. De-energize the TI HV EVM and all the inputs, outputs and electrical loads before performing any
electrical or other diagnostic measurements. Revalidate that TI HV EVM power has been safely de-
energized.
c. With the EVM confirmed de-energized, proceed with required electrical circuit configurations, wiring,
measurement equipment hook-ups and other application needs, while still assuming the EVM circuit and
measuring instruments are electrically live.
d. Once EVM readiness is complete, energize the EVM as intended.
WARNING
While the EVM is energized, never touch the EVM or the electrical circuits, as the electrical
circuits and EVM can be at high voltages capable of causing electrical shock hazard.
3. Personal Safety
a. Wear personal protective equipment e.g. latex gloves or safety glasses with side shields or protect EVM
in an adequate lucent plastic box with interlocks from accidental touch.
Limitation for safe use:
EVMs are not to be used as all or part of a production unit.

1.4.1 General Safety Information
The following warnings and cautions are noted for the safety of anyone using or working close to the BQ25756E
EVM. Observe all safety precautions.
Warning
The BQ25756EEVM circuit module can become hot during operation due to dissipation of
heat. Avoid contact with the board. Follow all applicable safety procedures applicable to
your laboratory.
CAUTION
Hot surface. Contact can cause burns. Do not touch!
Warning
The BQ25756EEVM has smaller clearance and creepage than normally used on high
voltage boards as well as not having an isolation boundary. If the user applies high
voltage to this board, then all terminals are considered high voltage and hazardous live.
Electric shock is possible when connecting the board to live wire. The board needs to be
handled with care by a professional. For safety, use of isolated test equipment with various
protection features (such as overvoltage and overcurrent) is recommended.
Warning
High voltages that can cause injury exist on this evaluation module (EVM). Please verify all
safety procedures are followed when working on this EVM. Never leave a powered EVM
unattended.
Warning High voltage can be present on board capacitors after power down. Properly check and
discharge all on-board energy reservoir after EVM power down.
!
Caution Do not leave EVM powered when unattended.
CAUTION
The communication interfaces are not isolated on the EVM. The use of digital isolators is
recommended. Verify all high voltage safety precautions are observed during testing.
CAUTION
Connections for rated current must be made at the terminal block. Test points are not rated for the
board current.
CAUTION
The circuit module can be damaged by over temperature. To avoid damage, monitor the temperature
during evaluation and provide cooling, as needed, for your system environment. Do not operate
beyond the current and voltage limits in the Section 2.3.
CAUTION
Test equipment can be damaged by application of external voltages. Check your equipment
requirements and use blocking diodes or other isolation techniques, as needed, to prevent damage
to your equipment.
CAUTION
The circuit module has signal traces, components, and component leads on the bottom of the board.
This can result in exposed voltages, hot surfaces or sharp edges. Do not reach under the board
during operation.

CAUTION
The default settings of the BQ25756E is possibly not designed for the user's application. Verify
the EVM settings are set appropriately for test setup before device power up. Set all protections
appropriately and limit current for safe operation.
CAUTION
The board does not have a fuse installed and relies on the external voltage source current limit to
verify circuit protection.

(1) Due to the high di/dt and dv/dt electrical flow associated with switch-mode power supplies, nodes on the EVM can have high spike
above input voltage (in buck mode) or output voltage (in boost mode) level. Switch node voltage can swing up to "input or output +
inductive spike" level. High side gate drives can swing up to "switch node voltage + 11 V (DRV_SUP supply voltage dependent) + gate
drive inductive spike" level. Safety precautions must be observed at all times.
(2) Connectors, bump-ons, jumpers on the EVM are not a good choice for evaluation under temperature greatly deviated from room
temperature of 25°C. Please refer to BOM for temperature rating of board components.
(3) Thermal monitoring (for example, using a thermal camera) is recommended if power stage output current > 5 A or total output power >
100 W.
(4) Default EVM input current limit is set to 8 A through the IIN pin. The current limiting feature can be disabled by setting EN_IIN_PIN bit
to '0', changing IIN pin resistor, or shorting IIN pin to PGND through JP11.
