LM3532EVM: Can't get LM3532 GUI to provide onboard power!

Here's a crash report:

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Hi Leif,

How about your OS version? Have you tried with other computer or OS versions?

Trying on another computer/OS is not an option for me.

For those reading this thread, I had to give up using the USB2ANY and resort to using an Arduino.  I don't get the sense the LM3532 is all that well supported. TI"s focus must be with newer LED drivers, or perhaps the funding isn't there.

(The LM3532 EVM User's Guide is not up to date either.)

Compare the process of getting up and running with an Arduino and that of the LM3532. No comparison.

I'd recommend putting USB on the EVM. Then there would be no need for the USB2ANY.... (less packaging, less shipping weight, less cost ).

When I say put USB on the EVM, I'm talking about a microcrontroller with native USB that would manage the USB / I2C conversion.
