2 Description
The UCD3138LLCEVM-028 along with the UCD3138CC64EVM-030 demonstrates an LLC resonant half-
bridge DC-DC power converter with digital control using the UCD3138 device. The UCD3138 device is
located on the UCD3138CC64EVM-030 board. The UCD3138CC64EVM-030 is a daughter card with
preloaded firmware that provides the required control functions for an LLC converter. For details of the
firmware please contact TI. UCD3138LLCEVM-028 accepts a DC input from 350 V
DC
to 400 V
DC
, and
outputs a nominal 12 V
DC
with full load output power of 340 W, or full output current of 29 A.
NOTE: This EVM does not have an input fuse and relies on the input current limit from the input
voltage source used.
