2 Configurations and Modifications

These evaluation modules are designed to provide access to the features of the TPS543820. The U2 design provides jumpers for testing different configurations. Jumper selections must be made prior to enabling the TPS543820.

If a desired configuration is not available, some modifications can be made to this module. When modifications are made to the components on the EVM, the internal compensation option selected with the MODE pin resistor can need to be changed. Changes to the fSW, output voltage, output inductor, and output capacitors can require a change in the compensation. TPS543820 data sheet equations or WEBENCH can be used to calculate the output capacitor value, compensation, fSW, and inductance. Ensure all components have sufficient voltage and current ratings.
