Part Number: LM5032EVAL
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM5032

Hi team,

Good day,

Is it possible to give solar input? followed by exernal controller like any lauchpads to run customized mppt algorithm along with LM5032EVAL.

If So kindly guide me and also if any suitabel EVAL available for low voltge application kindly suggest me.

Thank you.

Hi,

yes as long input voltage matches the device operation range. You can start with the device you mentioned.

Hi, Thanks for the info. How far about the external controller? can you give some inputs on that?

Hi,

You need to decide by yourself on your specs.

There is nothing you show on your specs and on your application of input range, output , and power, etc. So you need to make your mind how to move.

Hi! the output required from the boost converter will be in the range of 24 V to 48V and the input 18v from solar using MPPT. my query is can we have an external picaloo c2000 controller instead of LM5032. i want to use an external controller to generate PWM pulse and need to give it to MOSFETS.

Hi,

It looks LM5032 can cover your input and output.

If you want to use C2000, please create a new thread to show C2000 on your thread title so to direct it to C2000 support team.
