Part Number: MIC23156-0YCS-EV
MIC23156-0YCS EVALUATION BOARD
- Refer to User Guide.
Overview
The MIC23156 evaluation board allows the customer to evaluate a fully-integrated 1.5A, 3MHz synchronous buck regulator that features HyperLight Load® mode, a power good (PGOOD) output indicator, a programmable soft-start, and an output voltage scaling control through I2C. The MIC23156 is highly efficient throughout the output current range, drawing just 30μA of quiescent current during operation. The ability to dynamically change the output voltage in 10mV steps through I2C and maintain high output voltage accuracy makes the MIC23156 simple to use and versatile.
System Requirements
- The MIC23156 evaluation board requires a single 10W power source adjustable from 2.7V to 5.5V. The loads can either be active (electronic load) or passive (resistor), and must be able to dissipate 5W. It is ideal, but not essential, to have an oscilloscope available to view the circuit waveforms. The simplest tests require two voltage meters to measure input and output voltages. Efficiency measurements require two voltage meters and two ammeters to prevent errors caused by measurement inaccuracies.
- To use the dynamic voltage scaling feature, an I2 C serial programmer board (MICUSB I2 C Dongle EV), software package/kit (available for download online), and a computer are necessary.
