1.1 Description

The TPS40075EVM-001 is designed to use a regulated 12-V bus (between 10 V and 14 V) to produce a high current, regulated 1.5-V output at up to 15 A of load current. The TPS40075EVM-001 is design to demonstrate the TPS40075 in a typical regulated bus to low-voltage application while providing a number of test points to evaluate the performance of the TPS40075 in a given application. The EVM can be modified to support output voltages from 0.9 V to 3.3 V by changing a single resistor. The TPS40075EVM-001 has been built to the sample application used in the TPS40075 Midrange Input Synchronous Buck Controller with Voltage Feedforward Data Sheet except the switching frequency has been lowered to 400 kHz to reduce switching losses in the Power FETs, and the RKFF resistor (R10) increased to maintain the UVLO level.
