LM5122EVM-2PH Evaluation Module
1 Introduction
The LM5122EVM-2PH evaluation module (EVM) provides the design engineer with a fully functional dual
phase synchronous boost converter to evaluate the Texas Instruments LM5122 synchronous boost
controller device. The EVM provides 28 V output at up to 7 A current from a 9 V to 20 V input. The EVM is
designed to start up from a single power supply without any additional bias voltage.
2 Features and Electrical Performance
• 9 V to 20 V input voltage range
• 28 V target output voltage
• Up to 7 A output current
• 250 kHz typical switching frequency
• Dual phase interleaved operation

Test Equipment
4 Test Equipment
4.1 Power Supply
Power Supply should be capable of 20 V / 25 A, current monitoring and remote sensing.
4.2 Electronic Load
Electronic load should be capable of 32 V / 7 A. Use Constant Current (CC) mode.
4.3 Meters
One current meter is required to measure input current accurately. Maximum current rating of the meter
should be carefully considered. Input current can be as high as 25 A at full load current and minimum
input voltage. Output voltage is monitored by a voltage meter which should be capable of monitoring up to
32 V.
4.4 Oscilloscope
Oscilloscope and 10x probe with at least 20 MHz bandwidth are required.
5 Test Setup and Procedure
Figure 1. Connection Diagram
5.1 Precaution & Wire Gauge
Prolonged operation with low input voltage at full power will cause heating of the MOSFETs. A fan with a
minimum of 200LFM should be always provided.
Wire gauge for the input power supply should be 6-8 AWG minimum and no longer than 1 foot each for
VIN and GND. Wire gauge for the output electronic load should be 12 AWG minimum and no longer than
1 foot each for VOUT and GND.

5.2 Test Setup
5.2.1 Power Supply
Connect the power supply’s positive terminal (+) to ‘A’ terminal of ampere meter and negative terminal (-)
to TP4 GND. Connect the power supply’s positive remote sense terminal to TP2 VIN and negative remote
sense terminal to TP4 GND.
5.2.2 Meter
Connect ‘COM’ terminal of ampere meter to TP2 VIN. Double check ‘A’ terminal is connected to the power
supply’s positive terminal.
Voltage meter is used to measure output voltage. Connect positive terminal (V) of the voltage meter to
TP1 VOUT and negative terminal (COM) of the voltage meter to TP3 GND.
5.2.3 Load
Connect electronic load’s positive terminal (+) to TP1 VOUT and negative terminal (-) to TP3 GND.
5.3 Quick Test Procedure
5.3.1 Startup
• Set load current to 0 A and turn the load on
• Set power supply current limit to 25 A
• Turn on the power supply and increase voltage slowly up to 20 V
• Increase load current slowly up to 7 A
5.3.2 Shutdown
• Turn off the load
• Decrease the input voltage down to 0 V
• Turn on the load and discharge output capacitor
