3 Test Setup and Results

This section describes how to properly connect, set up, and use the TPSM843620EVM. The section also includes test results typical for the evaluation module and covers efficiency, output voltage regulation, load transients, loop response, output ripple, input ripple, start-up, and current limit modes. Measurements are taken with the following conditions unless otherwise noted.

  • 12-V input
  • Room temperature (20°C to 25°C)
  • The default setting output voltage of 1 V, switching frequency of 1000 kHz, and maximum current limit setting
