Microchip Technology MIC7400 Evaluation Board

Microchip Technology MIC7400 Evaluation Board evaluates the MIC7400 Power Management Integrated Circuit's capabilities. The device features 5 DC-DC buck converters capable of delivering 3A each and a boost converter with a 200mA current capability ​and I2C programmable output voltages. The MIC7400 Evaluation Board also features the MCP2221 USB to I2C bridge, enabling direct communication and programming functionality by connecting the MIC7400 to the Graphic User's Interface.
