LMS36x5x-Q1 EVM User's Guide
The LMS3655xQEVM is specifically designed for automotive and high-performance industrial applications,
providing an output voltage of 5 V, 3.3 V, or an adjustable output at a continuous load of 5.5-A. The
LMS3635xQEVM is implemented using the same PCB board and components, but the IC current limit is
set for a maximum continuous load of 3.5-A. The LMS3655xQEVM can be used to evaluate both the
LMS3655-Q1 IC and the LMS3655 IC.

All aspects of the LMS3635xQEVM and LMS3655xQEVM are optimized for high-performance industrial
and automotive markets. An input voltage range to 36 V eases the input surge protection design.
Exceptional dropout performance allows for the elimination of a boost stage in many designs for start and
stop applications. An open-drain RESET output, with filtering and Power Good delay, provides a true
indication of system status. This feature negates the requirement for additional supervisory circuitry,
saving cost, and board space. Seamless transition between PWM and PFM operation, along with a low
quiescent current, ensures high efficiency at all loads. The Texas Instruments LMS3655xQEVM and
LMS3635xQEVM help to evaluate the operation and performance of the LMS3655-Q1, LMS3655, and
LMS3635-Q1. The LMS36x5xQEVM is available for order in four variants.
