WARNING
Always follow TI’s set-up and application instructions, including use of all interface components within their
recommended electrical rated voltage and power limits. Always use electrical safety precautions to help
ensure your personal safety and the safety of those working around you. Contact TI’s Product Information
Center http://support/ti./com for further information.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
Failure to follow warnings and instructions may result in personal injury, property damage, or
death due to electrical shock and/or burn hazards.
The term TI HV EVM refers to an electronic device typically provided as an open framed, unenclosed
printed circuit board assembly. It is intended strictly for use in development laboratory environments,
solely for qualified professional users having training, expertise, and knowledge of electrical safety risks in
development and application of high-voltage electrical circuits. Any other use and/or application are strictly
prohibited by Texas Instruments. If you are not suitably qualified, you should immediately stop from further
use of the HV EVM.
1. Work Area Safety:
(a) Keep work area clean and orderly.
(b) Qualified observer(s) must be present anytime circuits are energized.
(c) Effective barriers and signage must be present in the area where the TI HV EVM and its interface
electronics are energized, indicating operation of accessible high voltages may be present, for the
purpose of protecting inadvertent access.
(d) All interface circuits, power supplies, evaluation modules, instruments, meters, scopes and other
related apparatus used in a development environment exceeding 50 V
RMS
/75 VDC must be
electrically located within a protected Emergency Power Off (EPO) protected power strip.
(e) Use a stable and non-conductive work surface.
(f) Use adequately insulated clamps and wires to attach measurement probes and instruments. No
freehand testing whenever possible.
2. Electrical Safety:
(a) De-energize the TI HV EVM and all its inputs, outputs, and electrical loads before performing any
electrical or other diagnostic measurements. Revalidate that TI HV EVM power has been safely de-
energized.
(b) With the EVM confirmed de-energized, proceed with required electrical circuit configurations, wiring,
measurement equipment hook-ups and other application needs, while still assuming the EVM circuit
and measuring instruments are electrically live.
(c) Once EVM readiness is complete, energize the EVM as intended.
WARNING: while the EVM is energized, never touch the EVM or its electrical circuits as they
could be at high voltages capable of causing electrical shock hazard.
3. Personal Safety:
(a) Wear personal protective equipment e.g. latex gloves and/or safety glasses with side shields or
protect EVM in an adequate lucent plastic box with interlocks from accidental touch.
4. Limitation for Safe Use:
(a) EVMs are not to be used as all or part of a production unit.

User's Guide
SLUUB97AMarch 2015Revised January 2016
Digitally Controlled LLC Resonant Half-Bridge DC-to-DC
Converter
0.1 Introduction
The UCD3138ALLCEVM150 EVM helps evaluate the UCD3138A 64-pin digital control device in an off-line
power converter application and then to aid in its design. The EVM is a standalone LLC resonant half-
bridge DC-to-DC power converter. The EVM is used together with its control card, the
UCD3138ACCEVM149 EVM. The UCD3138ARGC is placed on the UCD3138ACCEVM149 EVM.
The UCD3138ALLCEVM150 and UCD3138ACCEVM149 devices can be used as delivered without
additional work, from either hardware or firmware, to evaluate an LLC resonant half-bridge DC-to-DC
converter. This EVM combination allows for some of its design parameters to be returned using a GUI
based tool, called Texas Instruments Fusion Digital Power Designer. It is also possible to load custom
firmware with user’s own definition and development.
The two EVMs included are the UCD3138ALLCEVM150 and the UCD3138ACCEVM149.
This user’s guide provides basic evaluation instruction from a viewpoint of system operation in a
standalone LLC resonant half-bridge DC-to-DC power converter.
WARNING
High voltages are present on this evaluation module during operation and
for a while even after power off. This module should only be tested by
skilled personnel in a controlled laboratory environment.
An isolated DC voltage source meeting IEC61010 reinforced insulation
standards is recommended for evaluating this EVM.
High temperature exceeding 60°C may be found during EVM operation and
for a while even after power off.
This EVM’s purpose is to facilitate the evaluation of digital control in an LLC
using the UCD3138A, and cannot be tested and treated as a final product.
Extreme caution should be taken to eliminate the possibility of electric shock
and heat burn.
Read and understand this user’s guide thoroughly before starting any
physical evaluation.

0.2 Description
The UCD3138ALLCEVM150 and UCD3138ACCEVM149 demonstrate an LLC resonant half-bridge DC-
DC power converter with digital control using the UCD3138A device. The UCD3138A device is located on
the UCD3138ACCEVM149 board. The UCD3138ACCEVM149 is a daughter card with preloaded firmware
that provides the required control functions for an LLC converter. For details of the firmware please
contact TI. UCD3138ALLCEVM150 accepts a DC input from 350 V
DC
to 400 V
DC
, and outputs a nominal
12 V
DC
with full load output power of 340 W, or full output current of 29 A.
NOTE: This EVM does not have an input fuse and relies on the input current limit from the input
voltage source used.

0.8 Test Procedure
0.8.1 Efficiency Measurement Procedure
WARNING
Danger of electrical shock! High voltage present during the measurement.
Do not leave EVM powered when unattended.
Danger of heat burn from high temperature.
1. Refer to Figure 0-10 for basic set up to measure power conversion efficiency. The required equipment
for this measurement is listed in Section 0.5.1.
2. Before making electrical connections, visually check the boards to make sure no shipping damage
occurred.
3. In this EVM package, two EVMs are included, UCD3138ALLCEVM150, and the
UCD3138ACCEVM149. For this measurement, the UCD3138ALLCEVM150 and
UCD3138ACCEVM149 boards are needed.
4. First install the UCD3138ACCEVM149 board onto the UCD3138ALLCEVM150. Care must be taken
with the alignment and orientation of the two boards, or damage may occur. Refer to Figure 0-11 for
UCD3138ACCEVM149 board orientation.
5. Connect the DC voltage source to J8 (+) and J9 (-). The DC voltage source should be isolated and
meet IEC61010 requirements. Set up the DC output voltage in the range specified in Table 0-1,
between 350 V
DC
and 400 V
DC
; set up the DC source current limit 1.2 A.
NOTE: The board has no fuse installed and relies on the external voltage source current limit for
circuit protection.
6. Connect an electronic load with either constant-current mode or constant-resistance mode. The load
range is from zero to 29 A.
7. Check and make sure a jumper is installed on J6.
8. It is recommended to use the switch SW1 to turn on the board output after the input voltage is applied
to the board. Before applying input voltage, make sure the switch, SW1, is in the OFF position.
9. If the load does not have a current or a power display, a current meter or low ohmic shunt and DMM is
needed between the load and the board for current measurements.
10. Connect a volt-meter across the output connector and set the volt-meter scale 0 V to 15 V on its
voltage, DC.
11. Turn on the DC voltage source output, flip SW1 to ON and vary the load. Record output voltage and
current measurements.
0.8.2 Equipment Shutdown
1. Shut down the DC voltage source.
2. Shut down the electronic load.
