Output Voltage Setpoint

To change the output voltage of the EVM, change the value of resistor R7 (RUPPER) and R9 (RLOWER). The value of R7 and R9 for a specific output voltage can be calculated using Equation 1, and refer to Table 3-1 for some recommendation values. See the TPS568231 3.8-V to 17-V Input , 8-A Synchronous Step-Down Converter data sheet. See Table 3-1 to set the switching frequency.
