Key features of the dsPICDEMTM SMPS Buck DevelopmentBoard include:
Socketed dsPIC30F2020 on board connected to power devices and circuitry for controlling dual independent low power DC to DC Synchronous Buck Converter circuits
Buck converters can operate in Synchronous or Asynchronous modes
Input voltage range 7V to 15V (nominal 9V)
User can enable a dynamic output load to investigate transient response
User potentiometers to simulate application features such as voltage trim, remote voltage sense, voltage tracking, current sharing, etc.
MPLAB? ICD 2 or REAL ICE support ready
RS-232 serial channel
Example software for implementing digital dual synchronous buck converter
