MODIFYING THE EVALUATION BOARD
The ADP2106 evaluation board is supplied fully assembled and
tested for proper operation. It comes in two versions: the
ADP2106-1.8-EVAL with fixed output voltage of 1.8 V and the
ADP2106-EVAL with adjustable output voltage initially set to 2.5 V.
tested for proper operation. It comes in two versions: the
ADP2106-1.8-EVAL with fixed output voltage of 1.8 V and the
ADP2106-EVAL with adjustable output voltage initially set to 2.5 V.
The two most common modifications that can be done to the
evaluation boards are changing the output voltage and changing
the load transient response.

Changing the Output Voltage
The ADP2106-EVAL output regulation voltage can be changed
by altering its external components. The ADP2106-1.8-EVAL
output regulation voltage is fixed at 1.8 V and cannot be
changed.

The ADP2106-EVAL output regulation voltage is set by
a resistive voltage divider consisting of Resistor R4 and Resistor R5.
Resistor R4 corresponds to the R

Note that when the output voltage of ADP2106-EVAL is
changed, the output capacitors (C3 and C4), inductor (L1), and
compensation components (R1 and C6) are recalculated and
changed according to the Application Information section in
the ADP2106 data sheet to ensure stable operation.

Changing the Load Transient Response
The ADP2106 evaluation board load transient response can be
altered by changing the output capacitors (C3 and C4) and the
compensation components (R1 and C6) as explained in the
Output Capacitor Selection and Loop Compensation sections of
the ADP2106 data sheet. By default, the load transient response
of both ADP2106 evaluation boards is set to 5% of the output
voltage for a 1 A load transient.

Output Capacitor Selection and Loop Compensation sections of
the ADP2106 data sheet. By default, the load transient response
of both ADP2106 evaluation boards is set to 5% of the output

Consider an example where the load transient response of the
ADP2106-1.8-EVAL is changed to 10% of the output voltage for
a 1 A load transient.
ADP2106-1.8-EVAL is changed to 10% of the output voltage for
a 1 A load transient.
First, select the output capacitors (C3 and C4) based on the load
transient response requirements. The desired load transient
response is 10% overshoot for a 1 A load transient. For this condi-
tion, the % Overshoot for a 1 A Load Transient Response vs.

Next, taking into account the loss of capacitance due to dc bias
