EVAL-ADPL42005
Overview
Features and Benefits
- Input voltage range: 4V to 20V
- Resistor programmed 3.3V output voltage
- Jumper turns regulator on or connects the EN pin to a connector to turn the regulator on or off externally
- Jumper connects the SENSE/ADJ pin to the output through a resistor divider or directly
- VIN, VOUT, and GND test points for regulation and dropout voltage monitoring
- PG test point for power good voltage monitoring that helps to indicate the status of the output
- 8-lead (3mm x 3mm) LFCSP package or 8-lead SOIC package
Product Details
The ADPL42005 evaluation boards evaluate the ADPL42005, a 20V, 500mA, low noise, complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS), low dropout (LDO) linear regulator.
See the Ordering Information section for the two types of evaluation boards that evaluate the ADPL42005. There is an evaluation board that features an 8-lead, 3mm x 3mm LFCSP package, and another evaluation board that features an 8-lead SOIC package.
The evaluation boards provide a 3.3V output over an input range of 4.0V to 20V. The maximum output current is 500mA, but the output current is also limited by the thermal dissipation of the ADPL42005. The evaluation boards use the adjustable version of the ADPL42005. A resistor divider programs the output of the adjustable ADPL42005 to 3.3V. Noise performance for the adjustable ADPL42005 can be made comparable to a fixed output ADPL42005 by installing optional RC network components into placeholders provided by the evaluation board printed circuit board (PCB) designs. The evaluation boards can easily be configured with a jumper for fixed output versions of the ADPL42005 that normally have their SENSE/ADJ pin connected directly to the output.
In addition to connectors for the input voltage, output voltage, EN control signal, and ground, the evaluation boards provide test points for the input, output, and PG pin voltages. A jumper normally connects the EN pin to the VIN input, but the jumper can be repositioned so EN can be driven externally at its connector instead.
