EV4245-VE-00A
36V, 6A Peak, Buck-Boost Converter
with I2C Interface for Power Delivery
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The EV4245-VE-00A is an evaluation board for
MP4245, a Buck-Boost converter with 4
integrated power switches. The device can
deliver up to 6A output current at certain inputsupply range with excellent load and line
regulation.
The MP4245 is suitable for USB power delivery
(USB PD) application. It can work well with
external USB PD controller through I2C
interface.
The I2C interface and
programmable)
provide
programmable features.
MTP (2 times
flexibility
of
Fault condition protection includes CC current
limiting, output OVP, and thermal shutdown
(TSD).
Support 60W Buck-Boost or 6A Peak Iout

QUICK START GUIDE
1. Preset the power supply output to 12V, and then turn off the power supply.
2. Connect the positive and negative terminals of the power supply output to the VIN and GND
pins, respectively.
3. Turn the power supply on, the EV4245-VE-00A will startup automatically at VOUT=5V.
4. Output voltage can be adjusted by FB resistor, default FB reference voltage is 0.4V.
5. It can use I2C GUI to visit MP4245 register and adjust output voltage. Default I2C slave address
is 61H.
