TPS23525EVM-815 Evaluation Module (EVM)

Texas Instruments TPS23525EVM-815 Evaluation Module (EVM) contains evaluation and reference circuitry for the TPS23525. The TPS23525 is a low-side Hot-Swap with soft start + dual ORing controllers targeted at telecom applications. This evaluation module provides a jump-start to anyone designing a redundant feed –48V system. The evaluation module includes input clamping to support lightning surge (up to 2kV), various FET placeholders to support multiple power levels, and an output inductor to mimic any EMI filter before the DC/DC converter. The Texas Instruments TPS23525EVM-815 also includes the circuitry that supports auxiliary bulk capacitors. This “auxiliary bulk capacitor” approach is useful when designing for large hold-up times (example: 10ms), making the hot-swap design more manageable by reducing the initial charge on the capacitor.
