EVM Power Derating Curve

The LM5155EVM-SEPIC is designed to support a full load of 2 A when the input voltage is higher than 5 V. When the input voltage is below 5 V, the output power needs to be derated, owing to the peak current limitation of the selected inductor on the EVM. Figure 1 shows the power derating curve.
