The Infineon XMC^™ Digital Power Explorer Kit is aimed at analogue power supply designers and embedded software programmers who need to develop power control applications based on digital hardware. The supplied digital power board provides the analogue components of a synchronous buck converter and includes on-board resistive load banks for design testing purposes. Two alternative plug-in microcontroller control cards are also provided enabling both high-performance and low-cost designs to be evaluated. The development of more complex power management systems may be investigated by using the PMBus communication option.
The kit was developed in collaboration with Biricha Digital Ltd. and Würth Elektronik using the RS DesignSpark PCB tool and is the course hardware for related Biricha design courses.
Würth Elektronik list the kit under their part no. IC-744726.
