TEA2016DB1519v2 240 W 12 V 20 A computing power supply demo board.
The TEA2016DB1519 demo board can operate at a mains input voltage between 90 V (RMS) and 264 V (RMS; universal mains).
The TEA2016DB1519 demo board contains three sub circuits:
The purpose of the demo board is to show and evaluate the operation of the TEA2016 PFC + LLC controller and the Synchronous Rectifier TEA1995T in a single output voltage power supply, which includes the operation modes in a typical design. The performance passes general standards, including the EuP lot6 requirements. It can be used as a starting point for power supply design using the TEA2016 and TEA1995T controller ICs.

The TEA2016DB1514 interface board is a development tool that enables setting TEA2016 controller parameters from a computer. The available Ringo TEA2016 development software provides a graphical user interface (GUI) that can be installed on a computer.
The interface and software are intended for engineering work in a lab environment as part of power supply development. It is not suitable for consumer use or for industrial purposes.
A user manual with detailed information is included in Ringo.

This board can be used to get familiar with programming TEA2016AATdev samples. A sample can be soldered to the board for this purpose. Adding an IC socket will make the TEA2016DB1561 programming board suitable for programming small series of ICs. By connecting both 3-pin and 6-pin cables, TEA2016AAT and TEA2016AATdev samples can be programmed by selecting the correct channel by the switch on the USB-I²C interface.

Copy the zip file from the USB stick or download it to a folder on your computer. The x64 is for 64-bit operating systems; the x86 is for 32-bit operating systems. Unzip the file.
For the Ringo software to work, the FT232H driver for the USB-I²C interface needs to be installed. This installation happens automatically when you connect the interface for the first time via USB. If the driver is not installed automatically, you can use the included drivers to do this manually (In this video Start Working with Ringo shows how to do this).
The Ringo software will not work when the FT232H driver is not installed.
The Ringo program needs no installation. It can be started by double-clicking on Ringo.exe. Keep the other files and folders in the same directory because Ringo makes use of it.

A user manual and videos are included in the Ringo GUI software for easy access to get familiar with using the software and getting to know the available functions.
Videos are available in Ringo for viewing on your local video player or via the NXP website in your browser:

Connecting the Setup video shows how to connect a setup to your computer by USB. There are two types of setup.
The TEA2016DB1519v2 demo board contains a TEA2016AATdev sample that can communicate via I²C during operation. It is connected to the interface with a 3-pin connection.
Connecting a TEA2016DB1561 with a 6-pin cable provides reading or programming TEA2016AAT ICs. Also connect the 3-pin cable if a TEA2016AATdev IC version is used.
The switch on the interface selects the 3-pin or 6-pin connection.
