Introduction 1 Introduction The Texas Instruments TPS7A53EVM-080 evaluation module (EVM) helps designers evaluate the operation and performance of the TPS7A53A-Q1 LDO voltage regulator. As shown in Table 1-1, the TPS7A53EVM-080 contains one TPS7A53A-Q1 LDO voltage regulator in the RTJ package. An optional load transient circuit is also included to assist the user with high-speed load transient testing.
TPS7A53A-Q1 LDO after VIN is applied. Figure 2-1 shows the result of the TPS7A53EVM-080 during turn-on. The yellow trace is the input voltage, the green trace is the load current, and the red trace is the output voltage. Figure 2-1. TPS7A53EVM-080 Turn-On SBVU078 –...
Optional kelvin sense points are provided using the SMA connectors J2 (VIN) and J1 (VOUT). 2.4 Optional Load Transient Circuit Operation The TPS7A53EVM-080 evaluation module contains an optional high-performance load transient circuit to allow efficient testing of the TPS7A53A-Q1 LDO load transient performance. To use the optional load transient circuit, install the correct components in accordance with the application.
The resulting test data shows a 1-mA to 3-A load step on VOUT of the LDO, with only a 47-μF capacitor on the output of the LDO. Figure 2-3. TPS7A53EVM-080 Load Transient Figure 2-4. TPS7A53EVM-080 Load Transient Results: 1-mA to 3-A Load Step Results: 3-A to 1-mA Load Step SBVU078 –...
TPS7A53EVM-080 PCB. The TPS7A53EVM-080 dissipates power, which can cause some components to experience an increase in temperature. The TPS7A53A-Q1 LDO and pulsed resistors R8, R9, R10, R11, and R12 are most at risk of raising the junction temperature during normal operation.
