STEVAL-ISA082V14 A peak 800 kHz fixed-frequency PWM synchronous step-down demonstration board with enable on/off based on the ST1S40IPHR | Development Boards, Kits, Programmers | 1 | Obsolete | The STEVAL-ISA082V1, based on the ST1S40IPHR, is an internally compensated 800 kHz fixed-frequency PWM synchronous stepdown converter evaluation board.
The ST1S40 operates from 4.0 V to 18.0 V input, while it regulates an output voltage as low as 0.8 V and up to VIN (100% duty cycle).
The ST1S40 integrates a 95 mΩ high-side switch and a 69 mΩ synchronous rectifier allowing very high efficiency with very low output voltage.
The peak current mode control with internal compensation delivers a very compact solution with a minimum component count.
The ST1S40 is protected through cycle-by-cycle current limiting in case of overload and is also protected by a current foldback function with frequency reduction in case of short-circuit.
The device is available with an enable on/off function. |
| Evaluation Boards | 1 | Active | The STEVAL-ISA095V1 demonstration board is designed to provide an evaluation platform for testing the ST1S14, a step-down monolithic power switching regulator capable of delivering up to 3 A of output current. The high current level is possible thanks to an HSOP8 package with exposed frame.
The output voltage can be set from 1.22 V. An internal oscillator fixes the switching frequency at 850 kHz.
A Power Good open collector output validates the regulated output voltage as soon as it reaches the regulated level.
Pulse-by-pulse current limiting offers effective constant current short-circuit protection, while the current foldback decreases overstress in persistent short-circuit conditions. |
STEVAL-ISA121V1Wide range single-output demonstration board based on the VIPER37LE | Evaluation Boards | 1 | Active | The STEVAL-ISA121V1 demonstration board implements a 15 W single-output wide range mains power supply to be used as an auxiliary adapter in applications such as LCD, plasma or LED TVs, desktop computers, etc., when the main power supply is OFF or in standby mode and the auxiliary power supply must provide energy only to some specific parts of the equipment such as USB ports, remote receiver, etc.

The STEVAL-ISA154V1 integrates STMicroelectronics' L5980 step-down switching regulator together with all the external components required for a typical application. The rated voltage of the input capacitor and the Schottky diode rectifier repetitive peak reverse voltage are both 25 V, making the board capable of covering the entire 2.9 V - 18 V input voltage range of the L5980 device. The board features an external resistor divider (R1 and R2) designed for an output voltage of 3.3 V. The output voltage can be set to a level from 0.6 V up to the rated voltage of the output capacitor (16 V). The compensation network on the evaluation board allows the use of an MLCC as output filter to keep the loop stable. The inductor saturation current and forward current of the Schottky diode are within the current limit values.

STEVAL-ISB013V1Battery monitor demonstration board with alarm output for gas gauge applications based on the STC3105 | Development Boards, Kits, Programmers | 1 | Obsolete | The STEVAL-ISB013V1 is a demonstration board based on the STC3105 battery monitor IC. The application monitors the voltage and current of a battery and includes a Coulomb counter to keep track of the charge/discharge status.
An alarm output signals a low state-of-charge (SOC) condition and/or low battery voltage. In addition, a relaxation register begins counting when the gas gauge is in a specified light-load condition, indicating when an OCV (open circuit voltage) measurement should be made for SOC correction. |
STEVAL-ISB033V1Evaluation board for STBCFG01 single-cell Li+ battery charger with OTG boost, voltage mode fuel gauge and 200 mA LDO | Evaluation Boards | 1 | Active | The STEVAL-ISB033V1 is an evaluation board to test the first-of-its-kind STBCFG01 switch mode battery charger for single cell Li-Ion batteries, which integrates a highly accurate voltage mode fuel gauge to monitor a battery's state of charge. The device also provides a 5 V output to supply USB OTG (on-the-go) bus-powered devices in addition to an LDO linear voltage regulator to support system boot in dead battery conditions.
The STBCFG01 uses accurate measurements of the battery voltage which allows the estimation of the battery's state-of-charge (SOC) without a current-sensing resistor. The switching charger works together with the fuel gauge to simplify monitoring features and to save current consumption when the device is not charging. The battery charger features a smart input current limit; the maximum input current can be selected through the I²C interface, and if the input voltage drops below a programmable threshold, even if the selected maximum current limit current has not been reached yet the dynamic input current limit function is activated, preventing the input current from increasing further. The dynamic input current limit function can be disabled, if necessary. An automatic input pre-bias load makes the device suitable for applications using voltage sources requiring a minimum external load for correct regulation. |
