This reference design operates over an 8V - 16V input range and delivers 5V @ 1A at the output. This design is content from the presentation material of the TI Power Workshop. This design has been built and tested and the design files and test report are included. This is a good low cost design that demonstrates the fundamentals of a non-isolated, non-synchronous dc-dc buck converter.
LPS22HB adapter board for standard DIL24 socket
The MAX15112 high-efficiency, current-mode step-down regulator with integrated power switches operates from 2.7V to 5.5V and delivers up to 12A of output current in a small 2mm x 3mm package. The MAX15112 offers excellent efficiency with skip mode capability at lightload conditions, yet provides unmatched efficiency under heavy load conditions.
The MAX15051 is a high-efficiency switching regulator that delivers up to 4A load current at output voltages from 0.6V to (0.9 x VIN).
This 80W telecom hot-swap reference design is immune to 150V input-voltage transients and 16ms power dropouts. Additional features include -32V to -72V operation, two-diode OR-ing input, and an inrush current that is ≤ 1.5 times the full -load current. Included are a detailed schematic, representative PCB layout, bill of materials, waveforms detailing actual performance at startup, -150V input transient, and full-load holdup at power loss.
L20G20IS adapter board for standard DIL24 socket
This reference design uses a low-cost MSP430 and two DRV8860 eight-channel low-side drivers to drive eight seven-segment displays with brightness control. The display module benefits from the DRV8860's wide power supply range, high current, PWM brightness control, serial daisy-chain connectivity, and output scalability to hundreds of LEDs. It is a complete solution, equipped with six demonstration display modes via the onboard MCU program, with integrated protection against short circuit, under voltage and over temperature.
