24V-5V Buck Converter

Sahil Kale (Deactivated) 

Motivation:

For the 2021-2022 competition season, a power architecture change was deemed necessary in the sense that 24V would be given directly to board and stepped down to 5V on each board. The buck evaluation board was developed to evaluate the LMR33640DDDAR board.


PCB:

The PCB is a 1.5 x 1.5 in" board with 2 endpoints. The layout is designed to match the recommended TI buck converter layout.


Errata:

  • Silkscreen on headers is reversed on 5V end
