Introduction
The Texas Instruments TPS54362BEVM evaluation module (EVM) helps designers evaluate the operation
and performance of the TPS54362B-Q1 switch-mode power-supply buck regulator. The device is
configurable and can be configured to switch from 200 kHz up to 2.2 MHz. This EVM is optimized for EMI
performance. For the EMI test results, see the application report

Performance Summary
The TPS54362BEVM is optimized to meet the CISPR25 EMC standard for automotive components.
TPS54362BEVM was tested at V
(BAT)
= 12 V an output voltage of 5 V at 2 A. The layout is designed to
reduce emissions to levels deemed acceptable by the previously mentioned standard.
The switching frequency is externally set at a nominal 500 KHz. The compensation components are
external to the integrated circuit (IC) and have been selected to optimize the transient performance of the
device. An external divider allows for an adjustable output voltage.
lists a summary of the TPS54362BEVM performance specifications. Specifications are given for
an input voltage of V
I
= 12 V and an output voltage of 5 V, unless otherwise specified. The
TPS54362BEVM is designed and tested for V
I
= 6 V to 48 V. The ambient temperature is 25°C for all
measurements, unless otherwise noted.
