The LM72880-Q1 evaluation module (EVM) is a synchronous, buck DC/DC regulator which is capable of constant-current constant-voltage (CC-CV) regulation with I2C interface. The EVM operates over a wide input voltage range of 24V to 70V (at J4 VIN terminal), providing maximum 5A in CC mode and maximum 20V in CV mode. The regulation targets of the average inductor current limit and the output voltage are programmable by I2C. The free-running switching frequency is also programmable by I2C and is synchronizable to an external clock signal at a higher or lower frequency.
