1.1 Introduction

The TPS544B28EVM evaluation module (EVM) is a buck convertor built using the TPS544B28 in a VAN package. The EVM is designed to accommodate various settings through jumper options, the device allows programming and monitoring through the PMBus interface, and therefore, the design is not optimized for any specific condition. The test data in this user's guide were all collected for 12V input voltage, 1V output voltage, 800kHz switching frequency up to 20A output current, unless otherwise specified.
