2.1.5 Easy to Use Features

Output Voltage Tracking

Connect analog tracking voltage signal to J8. A high frequency PWM signal is also acceptable because a two-stage RC filter is inserted.

Select Vout between 24V and 45V

  • Populate R91=0Ω and keep R92 unpopulated to set Vout to 24V (default)
  • Populate R92=0Ω and keep R91 unpopulated to set Vout to 45V

Refer to Figure 2-1.

Observe the inductor current with current probe

Remove R11 and solder a wire in the plated through holes to observe the current through L1 with a current probe. Refer to Figure 2-2.

Similarly, remove R13 and solder a wire to observe the current through L2.
