The TPS482H85EVM is a hardware evaluation module (EVM) used to enable hardware engineers to evaluate the full performance and functionality of the TPS482H85-Q1 automotive high side switch. This evaluation board provides a seamless way to connect a power supply to the inputs of the TPS482H85-Q1, connect a load to the output channels, and switch on and off the device using the control pins of the chip itself. The device integrates protection features such as thermal shut down, output clamp, and current limit.
