...
- Verify the 5V output rail turns on (buck functionality)
- Verify the internal 3.3V rail turns on (LDO functionality)
- Slowly increase voltage (with low current limit, 100mA max) on buck input
- Check for excessive current/power draw (ensuring no output load)
- Optionally, measure potential when EN pin activates buck IC
- Varies due to hysterisis, but ~5.2V
- Probe the output net for voltage stability with DMM
...
E-load
- Perform load test on buck converter: use an e-load to saturate a 5V line to 4A rated maximum.
