1 Introduction

The TPS40071EVM−001 evaluation module (EVM) is a synchronous buck converter that uses PGD to maximize conversion efficiency by minimizing the body diode conduction loss. The use of the TPS40071 midrange input synchronous buck controller allows the EVM to deliver 10 A from a bus voltage ranging from 5 V to 14 V. The output voltage is originally set to 1.8 V, but can also be configured to provide 1.2 V to 3.3 V at a load current up to 10 A by changing one surface mount resistor.
