Overview

This application note describes the EVAL_BIDI_HB_1EDN7550B evaluation board, designed to demonstrate the Infineon 1EDN7550B EiceDRIVER gate driver with truly differential inputs (TDI). The board operates as a non-isolated bidirectional synchronous buck/boost converter, utilizing BSC093N15NS5 OptiMOS MOSFETs and an XMC1100 microcontroller for digital control and communication. It supports input voltages up to 50V in buck mode and provides a reference design for low-voltage power stages such as brick converters and synchronous rectifiers. The document includes technical specifications, hardware setup instructions, performance characteristics, schematics, and a complete bill of materials.

Use Cases

  • Low-voltage (LV) power supplies up to 84V bulk voltage
  • Brick converters
  • Full-bridge synchronous rectifiers
  • Half-bridge and full-bridge power stages
  • SMPS digital control evaluation
