LMG2100EVM-078: I got a dfferent Versions

Part Number: LMG2100EVM-078
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMG2100R044

My kit has also the Rev. A marked on the PCB (left picture), but looks different. The main difference is, that L1 is mounted on the bottom side. Is my kit a newer or older version and exits a description for that.

Hi Gerhard,

The EVM with the inductor on the bottom side is revision A, the one with the inductor on the top side should be marked as rev B.

We revised the layout of the EVM due to co-heating of the LMG2100R044 and the inductor and to make measurements of the switch node easier.

Best,

Kyle Wolf
