1.1 Introduction

The TPS546E25EVM-1PH evaluation module (EVM) is a single-phase buck converter with a TPS546E25 device. The TPS546E25 device is a stackable synchronous buck with a PMBus® interface that operates from a nominal 2.7V to 18V supply with external bias. The device allows for programming and monitoring through the PMBus interface.

The TPS546E25 device is configured as a single-phase buck converter in factory default.
