DESCRIPTION
The EV3900DK-00B is an evaluation board for the
MP3900DK. It is configured to provide a regulated
25V output at up to 2A load current from a 12V
input. The output is adjustable by changing
feedback resistors on the evaluation board.
MOSFET Rds,on can be directly used for current
sense purpose without an external sense resistor.
Although the demo board uses the external
10mΩ to sense the current, it also provides the
stuffing option for users who want to use the R
ds,on
as the sense element.
