TPS51388 Step-Down Converter Evaluation Module
Description
The TPS51388EVM is a fully assembled and tested
circuit for evaluating the TPS51388 converter. The
evaluation module is configured to operate from
input voltage range of 5.5V to 24V and produce a
regulated 5.15V output with up to 12A load current.
Most settings of the device can be easily adjusted
or set through jumpers, such as: operation mode
(OOA or ECO), external bypass supply, and switching
frequency.
