Analog Devices Inc. EVAL-ADM1273 Evaluation Board
Analog Devices EVAL-ADM1273 Evaluation Board is a comprehensive evaluation platform designed for the ADM1273 hot-swap controller. The board's layout offers a clear view of all peripheral components and the hot-swap power path, while also optimizing thermal performance to support high-current applications. The Analog Devices EVAL-ADM1273 is preassembled and tested with a 54V, 30A hot-swap configuration, capable of operating with a 1mF output capacitor.
The board includes two sense resistor footprints and four multipackage MOSFET footprints (including two on the bottom side) to support a wide range of application scenarios. These features provide flexibility for various design setups. Additionally, multiple test points offer easy access to critical signals, and six onboard LEDs provide visual indicators for input power, output power, GPIO1, GPIO2, power good, and fault status.
The board supports PMBus communication with the ADM1273 and is fully compatible with LTpowerPlay® software for configuration and monitoring. To interface with a Windows®-based PC, a DC1613A USB-to-PMBus controller is required.
