The Texas Instruments TPS56221EVM-579 evaluation module (EVM) is a synchronous buck converter
providing a fixed 1.2-V output at up to 25 A from a 12-V input bus. The EVM is designed to start up from a
single supply; so, no additional bias voltage is required for start-up. The module uses the TPS56221
High-Current, Synchronous Buck Converter with integrated MOSFETs.
The TPS56221 integrates TI's high-performance controller technology with TI's industry-leading MOSFET
technology in a standard QFN package to meet the demands of modern, high-current, space-constrained
applications.

  • Page 3: Introduction

    Introduction Description TPS56221EVM-579 is designed to use a regulated 12-V (8-V to 14-V) bus voltage to provide a regulated 1.2-V output at up to 25 A of load current. TPS56221EVM-579 is designed to demonstrate the TPS56221 high-current integrated, FET converter in a typical space-limited 12-V bus to low-voltage point-of-load application.

    VIN to J1 The connection between the source voltage (VIN) and J1 of TPS56221EVM-579 can carry as much as 3.5 Adc of current. The minimum recommended wire size is AWG 16 with the total length of wire less than 2...
  • Page 7: Equipment Setup

    5.1.6 Thermal The TPS56221EVM-579 evaluation module includes components that can become hot to the touch when operating. Because this evaluation module is not enclosed to allow probing of circuit nodes, a small fan capable of 200-400 lfm is recommended to reduce component temperatures when operating.
