Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) EVQ8875A-VE-00A Evaluation Board

Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) EVQ8875A-VE-00A Evaluation Board is designed to demonstrate the capabilities of the MPQ8875A. The MPQ8875A is a 36V, monolithic, synchronous DC/DC buck-boost converter. The device’s wide 2.2V to 36V input voltage range is ideal for multi-purpose automotive and industrial applications. Constant-on-time (COT) control and the integrated quad-switch configuration allow the MPQ8875A to flexibly change between the buck, boost, and buck-boost topologies.
