DCM4623ED2K53E0M00 evaluation board

The DCM4623ED2K53E0M00 evaluation board is a DC/DC & AC/DC (Off-Line) SMPS from Texas Instruments (TI). The device is also referred to as a Fixed Frequency, Step-Down, I2C-Controlled and VR13.3-Compliant PMIC.

Application

The DCM4623ED2K53E0M00 is designed for low-cost computing & consumer applications which require small form factor power modules, such as netbooks, tablet PCs, and set-top boxes, as well as small industrial and medical applications. The evaluation board is a TI development and evaluation platform which allows for exploration of all the features and functions of the device. The board is populated with active and passive components to facilitate evaluation of the DC/DC & AC/DC (Off-Line) SMPS.

Working principle

The DCM4623ED2K53E0M00 is a DC/DC & AC/DC (Off-Line) SMPS solution which provides precise voltage regulation, high power density, small size, and low no-load power consumption. The PMIC consists of two channels, a 2.5 A synchronous, step-down converter and a 0.7 A synchronous, step-down converter. It has 6 voltage rails, 0.9V, 1.3V, 1.8V, 1.2V, 2.5V and 3.3V. It also has features such as adjustable switching frequency, I2C interface, and VR13.3 compliant power sequencing. The integrated features reduce the total bill of materials while also providing a robust level of protection.

The DCM4623ED2K53E0M00 evaluation board uses a DC/DC & AC/DC (Off-Line) SMPS for DC/DC conversion. This board features two preset voltages, 0.9V and 1.3V. The DCM4623ED2K53E0M00 evaluation board includes an onboard microcontroller which can be programmed to provide the necessary sequencing for a safe start-up sequence in systems with multiple power rails and sequencing requirements. The board also includes two TI TPS63420EVM power modules which regulate all six of the processor’s power rails.
