Part Number: TPL7407LEVM

Dear Team,

the TPL7407LEVM user's guide says the Gerber Files are available on ti.com.

Could you please share the link here, I wasn't able to find them.

Thanks and best regards,

B

    Hi B, 

    Thanks for reaching out on E2E!

    Being an older EVM, I'm having trouble locating the repository with these files. Let me sync with our EVM team and get back to you on these files.

    Thanks,

    Arthur Huang

    Hello, thank you for locating the gerber file, can you recommend an app to view these?  Is it possible to provide pdfs of the layers?  Thank you

    Hi Jim,

    I personally use Altium to view the files, but I believe you can view the files using ODB++ viewer.

    Please find the PCB Layer file attached.

    Thanks,

    Hello Arthur.

    Thank you so much for the pdf, I really appreciate it. Its funny, I tried Altium and could only open the drill drawing, all the other files opened as a text representation of the layer, a portion of the file TXPS.l04 is shown here: (again thank you for your help!)

    Hi Jim,

    Unfortunately, the only files I could find are the IPC and CAM / NC files. This being an older EVM, we don't have the original PCB or schematic files anymore unfortunately.

    I'm not sure if there's a different way to open the files. Are you looking for something specific that I could help with?

    Thanks,
    Arthur Huang

    Hi Arthur,

    Thank you for your continued help, I do appreciate that.  I should have been more specific in that the pdfs are will tell me what I need to know, I don't need more than that.  I just wanted to see how the contact closures are connected, to see if there was a common side connecting one side of all the relays together or if there is access to each relay contact individually.  Again, thank you for all your help, I should be ok now.
