LM5157EVM-BST Evaluation Module
The LM5157EVM-BST evaluation module showcases the features and performance of the LM5157 device
as wide input voltage, non-synchronous boost converter with dual random spread spectrum. The standard
configuration is designed to provide a regulated output of 12 V at 1.6 A from an input of 3 V to 9 V (load derated
for input voltages below 6 V), switching at a frequency of 2.1 MHz.
