2.1 Power Requirements

This EVM comes populated with a TPS7B84-Q1 LDO to provide a DC reference voltage to the tracker LDO if the user does not have an external supply to provide the reference voltage. The power supply requirement for the TPS7B84-Q1 depends on the output voltage setting chosen with J13; a 10V, 100mA current limit supply covers all of the default output voltage settings for the on-board TPS7B84-Q1. This supply is the same as the input supply for the tracker LDO.

This EVM also includes an onboard load transient circuit that is driven by the LM1020 gate driver. The LM1020 requires a nominal 5V supply that must not exceed 5.4V and must be no less than 4.75V.
