User Manual Description Description The TLD5501-2QV BUCK DEMO is an evaluation board for high power applications with the TLD5501-2QV product. TLD5501-2QV is an AEC qualified dual channel buck DC-DC controller suitable for constant current (LED driver) and constant voltage applications.
Connect the power supply at the IN terminals (VIC and GND). Launch Infineon toolbox: refer to Chapter 4 to learn how to control the eval board with the PC GUI. The GUI is set by default for “Dual buck parallel voltage regulator”, thus for a constant voltage regulation set 100% of PWM duty cycle and then enable the PWM: it could be possible that an output over voltage (OV) or an output short to ground (S2G) is reported due to wrong RV1 and RV2 settings.
