The TP6594EVM boards can be used to demo, debug, test, and configure one or more TPS6594x power management ICs. The device installed by default varies by board with details outlined in the User’s Guide. The primary difference between the boards is the phase configuration setup of the quad-phase bucks (BUCK1-BUCK4) which can be combined in 5 different combinations (1+1+1+1, 2+1+1, 3+1, 4, or 2+2). The board supports stacking with other TPS6594EVMs to test multi-PMIC operation. The board can be modified to support any spin of TPS6593, TPS6593-Q1, TPS6594, TPS6594-Q1.
