Hi,

---> I am currently giving power to this EVM as usual, but I am not able to give power like this all the time, so is there any other way to give it directly?

Dear Sankar -

Thanks for the post and welcome to E2E!

This board can also be powered through the BoosterPack header pins. (see page 6 of the EVM User guide)

as well as the schematic for reference: https://www.ti.com/lit/zip/sprr251

Hi,

--> In user manual it says, if we connect the launchpad board on the EVM, there is a need to give power to the EVM.

but is there other way like give 5V directly using any wires to the EVM ?

Sankar -

Referring to the schematic from link above - aside from the power jack, you can provide 5VDC via jumper P5

or you can populate R115 and provide via Pin 2 of J6 (BoosterPack header, previously mentioned)
