EVM USER'S GUIDE

LM5155EVM-SEPIC User's Guide

LM5155EVM-SEPIC User's Guide

The LM5155EVM-SEPIC Evaluation Module (EVM) is designed to showcase the LM5155 wide input voltage Boost/SEPIC/Boost controller, implementing a SEPIC converter with a coupled inductor. The EVM operates at 2.2 MHz, and it produces a regulated output of 12 V 24 W from an input of 5 V to 42 V. When the input voltage is between 3 V to 5 V, the output power is derated down to 10 W. The factory-installed controller is the LM5155-Q1. However, by replacing the IC, the EVM can also be used to demonstrate the performance of the LM51551-Q1, LM5155 and LM51551. The difference between the LM5155-Q1 and LM51551-Q1, or between the LM5155 and LM51551, is that the latter features the hiccup mode for overload protection.

1 Features and Electrical Performance

The LM5155EVM-SEPIC supports the following features and performance capabilities:

  • Wide input voltage range from 3 V to 42 V, to cover typical automotive battery voltage ranges including cold cranking and load dump transients
  • Optimized for input voltage range from 6 V to 18 V
  • Tightly regulated output voltage of 12 V with a 1% accurate reference voltage
  • Supports 2 A full load when VIN is greater than 5 V
  • Supports 0.8 A load current when VIN drops to 3 V
  • 2.2 MHz switching frequency
  • Peak efficiency > 88%
  • Can evaluate LM51551-Q1, LM5155, and LM51551 ICs, by replacing the factory installed IC with the corresponding IC
  • Hiccup mode for output over current protection (applicable only with LM51551 and LM51551-Q1)

The electrical performance of the EVM is show in Table 1. The EVM terminals and signal test points are listed in Table 2. The typical application circuit is shown in Figure 2. The EVM complete schematic is shown in Figure 19.
