The EPC9137 evaluation power module is designed for 48 V to/from 12 V DC-to-DC applications.
It features the EPC2206 – enhancement mode eGaN® field effect transistors (FETs) with AEC-Q101 qualification. The EPC9137 is controlled using the EPC9528 controller module that includes the Microchip dsPIC33CK256MP503 16-bit digital controller.
Other features include:
High efficiency:
>95.7% @ 12 V/125 A output (buck)
>95.2% @ 48 V/29 A output (boost)
Preset switching frequency: 250 kHz
Re-programmable – Average current mode control (default)
Fault protection:
Input undervoltage
Input overvoltage
Regulation error
Input undervoltage
Inductor overcurrent
Overtemperature
