Been testing the TPA3111D1EVM, and haven't been able to get a test signal running through it.
It should be as simple as connecting a power supply between 8 and 26 V and adding the signal to the input?
It looks like asserting the shutdown pin should be handled automatically, but when I connect the power supply, SD and FAULT are both at about 30 mV, instead of tied high.
I'm also no longer worried about my load being considered a short circuit, if anything it will be a much higher impedance than 8 ohms, but the device should be able to handle that, just at reduced power.
Thanks
The EVM should be very straight forward to get running. Have you taken a look at the user’s guide HERE?
If using the output from the Out + and Out – banana jacks, JP3 and JP4 must be installed. If you remove jumper JP1, Fault and SD will be independent. With JP1 removed check the voltage on Fault and SD after cycling SD. If Fault is low and SD is high, the fault pin is pulling SD low. There may be a short or DC offset issue at the output. Make sure the load is floating with respect to ground and that there are no shorts between OUT + and GND and OUT – and GND.
Also try this with the load disconnected.

John,
It sounds like a short somewhere on your board. Have you done a continuity check with a multimeter to make sure there are no shorts between any two output pins and between the output pins and ground?
If you cant find any shorts, it may make sense to swap the device if you have extras on hand.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Matt
