Description
The BSR054EVM is designed as a single output DC/DC converter that demonstrates the
TPS543C20AEVM-054 in a typical low-voltage application while providing a number of test points to
evaluate the performance. It uses a nominal 12-V input bus to produce a regulated 0.9-V output at up to
40-A load current.
