OVERVIEW
The LXE1732 evaluation board is available from
Microsemi for assessing overall circuit performance. The
evaluation board, shown in Figure 6, is 3 by 3 inches (i.e.,
7.6 X 7.6cm) square and factory calibrated for optimal
performance over a wide load range. Circuit designers can
easily modify output voltage to suit their particular
application. Moreover, inductor, capacitors, and diode are
easily swapped out to promote design verification of a
circuit that maximizes efficiency and minimizes cost for a
wide variety of applications.
The input and output
connections are described in Table 1.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Apply the DC input voltage directly to the VIN pin and
connect the test load to the VOUT pin. The output voltage
is factory programmed at 3.0V, however, the user may
adjust this value by changing the R1 and R2 values
accordingly. Install a wire loop at JU1 to close the circuit
connection and to examine the inductor current using a
suitable current probe.
The LX1732 exhibits a low quiescent current (IQ <
1
A: typ) during shutdown mode. This pin is pulled-up to
VIN via a 10K resistor. Grounding the SHDN test point
shuts down the IC however, the load is still capable of
drawing current through the inductor & diode circuit path.
Hence, VOUT during shutdown will be approximately the
input voltage minus the inductor and diode forward voltage
drop.
The LXE1732 evaluation board provides an easy and
cost effective solution for evaluation of the LX1732. The
factory installed component list for the evaluation board is
provided in Table 2 and the schematic is shown in Figure 7.
