ZL9006MEVAL1Z, ZL9010MEVAL1Z
6A and 10A Evaluation Board Setup Procedure
The ZL9006M, ZL9010M is a variable output, step-down
PMBus-compliant digital power supply. Included in the module
is a high-performance digital PWM controller, power MOSFETs,
an inductor, and all the passive components required for a
highly integrated DC/DC power solution. This power module
has built-in auto-compensation algorithms, which eliminate
the need for manual compensation design work. The
ZL9006M, ZL9010M operates over a wide input voltage range
and supports an output voltage range of 0.6V to 3.6V, which
can be set by external resistors or via PMBus. Only bulk input
and output capacitors are needed to finish the design. The
output voltage can be precisely regulated to as low as 0.6V
with ±1% output voltage regulation over line, load, and
temperature variations.
The ZL9006M, ZL9010M functions as a switch mode power
supply with added benefits of auto compensation,
programmable power management features, parametric
monitoring, and status reporting capabilities.

The ZL9006M, ZL9010M is packaged in a thermally enhanced,
compact (17.2mmx11.45mm) and low profile (2.5mm)
over-molded high-density array (HDA) package module
suitable for automated assembly by standard surface mount
equipment. The ZL9006M, ZL9010M is Pb-free and RoHS
compliant.
Figure 1 represents a typical implementation of the ZL9006M,
ZL9010M. For PMBus operation, it is recommended to tie the
Enable pin (EN) to "disable" mode.
Recommended Equipment
• 0V to 15V power supply with at least 5A source current
capability
• Electronic load capable of sinking current up to 10A
• Digital multimeters (DMMs)
