LM5122EVM-2PH Evaluation Module
1
Introduction
The LM5122EVM-2PH evaluation module (EVM) provides the design engineer with a fully functional dual
phase synchronous boost converter to evaluate the Texas Instruments LM5122 synchronous boost
controller device. The EVM provides 28 V output at up to 7 A current from a 9 V to 20 V input. The EVM is
designed to start up from a single power supply without any additional bias voltage.
