Factorized Power Architecture

The PRM and VTM Customer Evaluation Boards allow the user to develop an understanding of Factorized Power Architecture (FPA™) using the PRM and VTM chip set. Simply select the PRM Evaluation Board to match your input voltage and VTM Evaluation Board to provide the desired output voltage and current and plug them together.

The customer evaluation boards are equipped with test sockets, trim pots, and convenient input and output connections to allow the user to fully explore the capabilities of the PRM and VTM modules. A detailed User Guide is available.

PRM Constant Current (CC) Demonstration Board

The PRM Constant Current (CC) Demonstration Board is suitable for light-emitting diode (LED) applications such as street & stadium lighting, high-end projectors, active outdoor advertising and architectural installations. The board provides a precisely regulated current as required for direct drive multi-LED applications where the intensity and brightness are controlled by regulating the current through the LEDs.

The PRM CC board can be used to provide adjustable current up to 240 W (5 A at 48 V) when employed as a standalone non–isolated source or can be combined with a range of VTM™ current multipliers to provide an adjustable isolated current up to 130 A.

The board has Kelvin connections for measuring the efficiency of the V•I Chip components independent of load losses. Oscilloscope probe jacks are available for measuring output voltage, including output voltage ripple. The board is equipped with fused PRM module inputs, system enable and disable, and option for mounting a V•I Chip pushpin heat sink. For more details, see the Constant Current (CC) Demonstration Board User’s Guide (UG: 007) and Application Note:018, Providing a Constant Current for Powering LEDs using the PRM and VTM.
