This evaluation board is highly configurable to enable the testing of various configurations: common source or common drain back-to-back MOSFET structures, high or low-side current sense, and optional pre-charge path for capacitive loads up to 1mF.
The control of the 2ED4820-EM EiceDRIVERTM APD is done by the µController board (XMC2GO) via the SPI interface. The board is operated via a dedicated Windows-based user interface software running on a PC connected over USB.
This evaluation board is targeting typical 48V automotive power distribution applications and can be used with currents up to 20A.
Summary of Features
Two high-side output channels in common source back to back MOSFET structure
Alternatively, one high-side channel in the common drain back to back MOSFET structure
Pre-charge path for high capacitance loads driven either by 2ED4820-EM (compatible with common source only) or by an embedded level shifter
µC controller board (XMC2GO) plus Windows-based user interface
Control of all the configuration parameters
All monitoring, warning, and failure flags are visualized
Sensed current displayed
Automated capacitive pre-charge sequences sensing the output voltage
