Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) EVBL9840-L-00A Evaluation Board

Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) EVBL9840-L-00A Evaluation Board is designed to demonstrate the capabilities of the MP9840 and the MPQ9840. The MP9840 Synchronous Step-Down Converters are high-frequency, rectified, switch-mode converters providing built-in power MOSFETs. The MP9840 delivers 3.5A of continuous output current with excellent load and line regulation over a wide 3.3V to 36V input supply range.

The MPS EVBL9840-L-00A Evaluation Board supplies an integrated MPS power inductor. The fully assembled and tested evaluation board develops 3.3V of output voltage (VOUT) and up to 3.5A of load current across the entire VIN range.
