Texas Instruments TPS536C7EVM-051 Evaluation Module

Texas Instruments TPS536C7EVM-051 Evaluation Module is configured to evaluate the operation of the TPS536C7 Controller. The TPS536C7 Controller is a dual-channel (12+0, 11+1, or 10+2 phases), D-CAP+ synchronous buck driverless control with PMBus Interface.

The TI TPS536C7EVM-051 Evaluation Module uses the CSD95490, Synchronous Buck NexFET™ Smart Power Stage device as the power stage. The TPS536C7EVM-051 Evaluation Module includes test points for evaluating the performance of the TPS536C7 controller and CSD95410 power stages.
