Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) EV4245-VE-00A Converter Evaluation Board

Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) EV4245-VE-00A Converter Evaluation Board is designed for the MP4245, a Buck-Boost converter with four integrated power switches. The device can deliver up to 6A output current at a specific input supply range with excellent load and line regulation. The MP4245 is suitable for USB power delivery (USB PD) applications. It can work well with an external USB PD controller through an I2C interface.

The I2C interface and MTP (2 times programmable) provide flexibility of programmable features. Fault condition protection includes CC current limiting, output OVP, and thermal shutdown (TSD). The MP4245 requires a minimum number of readily available standard external components. The Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) MP4245 is available in a QFN21 (4mm x 5mm) package.
