The original application had a feedback to the ADJ pin fdownstream of the OUPUT pin after the load.which essentially gave it the same function as the R2 so apparently in that configuration it was...

Veeresh,The power dissipated in the device is VIN*ICC+(VIN-VOUT)*IOUT = 12V*5mA+7V*250mA = 1.81WattThe heat needs to flow easily into the printed circuit board then the PCB conducts heat to ambient...

What I meant by "controlled by software command" was that I intend to send I2C commands to the UCD90120A to command it to turn on the power supply.I now have an eval board and, by trial and error,...

View ArticleForum Post: RE: LM5022 as SEPIC is burning FETs with load
Hello Mark,The interrupted ground plane can be a culprit for many issues. Your design is switching at 1MHZ frequency. An un-optimized layout at this high frequency can definitely cause the design to be...

Yes bqEVSW software has the calibration step also but I figured if I I could do this calibration step with the bqMTester I wouldn't have to redo it in bqEVSW and I wouldn't have to worry about accuracy...

I haven't worked personally with the TPS63020 recently but based on Figure 1 I think you will be fine with 1.8V input to 5.0V output at 205mA average current. If you operate below 1.8V the electrical...

Jim,This does sound like it is likely the source of the issue. When working with any switching regulator it is tough to prototype without a surface mount board designed for the IC because layout is a...

Two of the bucks can be disabled to operate the device as a single buck with dying gasp. I'd reccomend you disable bucks 1 & 2, just running buck 3.

Hi Alexis,We added a switch between CPOUT and VBUS and controlled the switch by software.By default, the switch is off which means VBUS is not connected to CPOUT. The voltage on VBUS is 0v and voltage...
