Introduction

The PI2001-EVAL1 allows the user to test the basic principle and operational characteristics of an Active ORing function in a redundant power architecture, while also experiencing the benefits and value of the PI2001 solution versus conventional Active ORing solutions. The PI2001-EVAL1 evaluation board is configured to receive two independent power source inputs, per a typical redundant power architecture, through two Active ORing channels that are combined to form a redundant power output. Each channel contains a PI2001 controller and an N-channel power MOSFET. The MOSFET foot print can take an SO-8 or Power SO-8 MOSFET package. Each channel is capable of up to 20 A, for high current Active ORing, above 20 A, the two channels provided on the evaluation board can be paralleled in a master / slave configuration and OR’d with a second evaluation board.

PI2001-EVAL1屬于開發(fā)板，套件，編程器 > 評估和演示板及套件。Vicor Corporation制造生產(chǎn)的PI2001-EVAL1評估和演示板及套件該系列產(chǎn)品提供了一種方便的方法，在經(jīng)過驗證的實施環(huán)境中評估某些重點器件的性能或特性。評估方法通常有完善的文檔說明，并且視乎具體情況由評估軟件提供支持。產(chǎn)品通常由印刷電路板組成，板上已裝有重點器件以及必要或有用的支持元器件，另外也可能包括其他組件，例如電纜或電源。對于數(shù)量特別多或類別獨特的器件類別(如 ADC、DAC 和開關(guān)模式電源)，評估平臺可組合為一個單獨的產(chǎn)品系列。
