Evaluation
Module
Evaluation platform for RPM-1.0
buck regulator modules
Thermal design considerations included
EMI Class B filter
Easy evaluation of trimming, sequencing, soft start,
enable and sensing functions
Description
The RPM3.3-1.0-EVM-1 and RPM5.0-1.0-EVM-1 generate a constant output voltage with an
output current up to 1A from an external DC Source. All the functions of the RPM3.3-1.0 and
RPM5.0-1.0 like trimming, sequencing, soft-start, enable and sensing can be evaluated. Also the
behavior in overload or over temperature can be evaluated easily before it is designed in. There are also
evaluation modules with other output currents available.

RPM3.3-1.0-EVM-1 3 - 17 3.3 1
RPM5.0-1.0-EVM-1 3 - 17 5 1
Caution:
ESD sensitive. Always follow ESD preventative procedures when
handling the product!
Quick Start Guide
1) Connect CON1 to power supply
2) Connect CON2 to a Load
3) Connect sense to the required potential
The sense preset is via R3 directly at the power module, so the preset voltage is very accurate
at the output of the RPM. To equalize ohmic losses of the filter, remove the resistor at R3, and
solder a 0Ω resistor at R4. To sense directly at the load, desolder R3 and R4, and connect
Pin3 of CON2 to the positive potential of the load.
Notice: if voltage drop from the output to the load is too high, voltage overshoots may occur
– especially during load jumps.
4) Disable the device via CON3
The device is preset as normally on. It can be disabled by pulling the enable pin to GND.
Short R1 to disable the device.
