LM25005 Evaluation Board
Introduction
The LM25005 evaluation board is designed to provide the
design engineer with a fully functional power converter based
on Emulated Current Mode Control to evaluate the LM25005
regulator IC. The evaluation board provides a 5V output with
a 2.5A current capability. The ultra-wide input voltage ranges
from 7V to 42V. The design operates at 300kHz, a good com-
promise between conversion efficiency and solution size. The
printed circuit board consists of 2 layers of 2 ounce copper on
FR4 material with a thickness of 0.06 inches. This application
note contains the evaluation board schematic, Bill-of-Materi-
als (BOM) and a quick setup procedure. Refer to the LM25005
datasheet for complete circuit design information.

Powering and Loading
Considerations
Read this entire page prior to attempting to power the evalu-
ation board.
QUICK SETUP PROCEDURE
Step 1: Set the power supply current limit to 3.5A. Turn off
the power supply. Connect the power supply to the Vin ter-
minals.
Step 2: Connect the load, with a 2.5A capability, to the Vout
terminals. Positive connection to J2 and negative connection
to J3.
Step 3: The SD pin should be left open for normal operation.
Step 4: Set Vin to 24V with no load applied. Vout should be
in regulation with a nominal 5V output.
Step 5: Slowly increase the load while monitoring the output
voltage, Vout should remain in regulation with a nominal 5V
output as the load is increased up to 2.5 Amps.
Step 6: Slowly sweep the input voltage from 7 to 42V, Vout
should remain in regulation with a nominal 5V output.

The performance of the evaluation board is as follows:
Input Range: 7 to 42V
Output Voltage: 5V
Output Current: 0 to 2.5A
Frequency of Operation: 300 KHz
Board Size: 2.75 X 1 X 0.4 inches
Load Regulation: 1%
Line Regulation: 0.1%
Over Current Limiting
Step 7: Temporally short the SD pin to GND to check the
shutdown function.
Step 8: Increase the load beyond the normal range to check
current limiting. The output current should limit at approxi-
mately 3.8A. The power supply (Vin source) current limit may
need to be increased for this step. Cooling is critical during
this step.
AIR FLOW
Prolonged operation with high input voltage at full power will
cause the thermal shutdown circuit within the regulator IC to
activate. A stand-alone fan with at lease 200 LFM should al-
ways be provided.
POWERING UP
Using the shutdown pin provided will allow powering up the
source supply with the current level set low. It is suggested
that the load be kept low during the first power up. Set the
current limit of the source supply to provide about 1.5 times
the anticipated wattage of the load. As you remove the con-
nection from the shutdown pin to ground, immediately check
for 5 volts at the output.
