LM36010EVM User Guide

The Texas Instruments LM36010EVM evaluation module (EVM) helps designers evaluate the operation
and performance of the LM36010 Synchronous-Boost Single-LED Driver with 1.5-A High-Side Current
Source. The device offers configurability via I

2

C-compatible interface. It can be enabled in flash or torch

mode via the I

2

C interface or externally using the STROBE pin. The module utilizes one LED (D1)

mounted on the EVM.

The EVM contains one synchronous boost, single-LED flash driver (see

Table 1

).
