to
show the board layout for the LM5160DNTBKEVM PCB. The WSON-12 package
allows a compact leadless IC package buck regulator solution. The LM5160DNTBKEVM is a simple two
layer board. In this EVM, the necessary feedback ripple voltage ( V
FB
) required for stable COT operation
over the entire input voltage range is generated by the inductor current flowing through the resistor, R
ESR
(R8 as shown in
). This is the least component, minimum cost ripple configuration. There are
placeholders in the EVM ( R7, C6, and C7) which can be populated as required, for the minimum ripple
injection network. If this external ripple configuration is used, substitute R8 with a 0
Ω
(0805) resistor.
Calculate these component values based on the formulae mentioned under Type 3 ripple configuration in
the LM5160, LM5160A Datasheet (
). See application note
for more details for each
ripple generation method.

Figure 5. Buck EVM Schematic with LM5160
When/If used with LM5160, the placeholder for D1 as in
, must remain unpopulated under all
cases. When evaluating the LM5160A, the designer needs to use the same standard EVM by replacing
the LM5160 IC (when/if populated) with the LM5160A. No other components on board need to be
replaced or removed. With LM5160A IC, the designer can use other nominal output voltage (V
OUT
), set
between 9 V and 13 V, to externally drive the V
CC
for improved efficiency requirement. In that case, the
diode in placeholder D1 can be appropriately populated, to the correct voltage ratings. More detail is given
in
in the Bill of Materials. For more information about the difference between LM5160A and
LM5160, please refer to the LM5160 Datasheet (
).
