Knowing that UCC587x needs the SPI communication to be able to start working, what is the fastest way to get the switching running?

Is there any tool kit or evaluation kit to be used for enabling the SPI communication with any preset parameters?

What are the options that I can take to get the first switching of UCC5871-Q1 as soon as possible?

Hi Mike,

Thanks for reaching out.

You can use the EVM GUI for the EVM but for a custom board, software needs to be developed. Hence, we recommend using UCC5880-Q1 which has CDD for software support and has higher CMTI rating and more configurability.

One of my colleague is aware of the EVM. Can we please get one of the EVM for UCC5871-Q1? We want to buy one immediately.

Hello Michael,

I reached out to our team and found out we no longer stock and sell the UCC5871 half bridge EVM.

Best,
