Demonstration circuit DC674B is a complete Fast Battery Charger capable of charging 3, 4, 6 or 10 series connected NiMH or NiCd cells. Other cell counts can also be charged (up to 16 cells) by installing an appropriate resistor on the board. The power portion of the circuit consists of a 550kHz synchronous step-down constant current source which provides 2A of charge current. Other charge currents can be selected by changing the sense resistor value, and for higher charge current (2 to 4A), the PC board has a dual layout for the top switch to allow a larger FET to be used. A PowerPath™ FET is also included that provides a low voltage drop path between the battery and an external system load when the input power is removed Charge termination includes -ΔV, ΔT/Δt, peak voltage and a safety timer.

Demonstration Circuit 383B is multipurpose demonstration board featuring the LT1930 and LT1931. The demo board offers three separate DC/DC converters. The Boost circuit is designed to convert a 5V input to 12V output at 300mA maximum load. The SEPIC circuit generates a 12V/300mA output from a 10V~16V variable input. The Inverter circuit is designed for applications requiring -12V/350mA from a positive 12V input.

The LT8334 boost/SEPIC/inverting converter IC operates over an input range of 2.8V to 40V, suitable

depends on the IC used; for the 5V output DC862A-B, the input voltage range is 2.7V to 5.5V. The

The LTC1474/LTC1475 series are high efficiency step-down converters with internal P-channel MOSFET power switches that draw only 10?A typical DC supply current at no load while maintaining output voltage. The LTC1474 uses logic-controlled shutdown while the LTC1475 features pushbutton on/off.The low supply current coupled with Burst Mode? operation enables the LTC1474/LTC1475 to maintain high efficiency over a wide range of loads. These features, along with their capability of 100% duty cycle for low dropout and wide input supply range, make the LTC1474/LTC1475 ideal for moderate current (up to 300mA) battery-powered applications.The peak switch current is user-programmable with an optional sense resistor (defaults to 325mA minimum if not used) providing a simple means for optimizing the design for lower current applications. The peak current control also provides short-circuit protection and excellent start-up behavior. A low-battery detector that remains functional in shutdown is provided.The LTC1474/LTC1475 series availability in 8-lead MSOP and SO packages and need for few additional components provide for a minimum area solution.Applications Cellular Telephones and Wireless Modems 4mA to 20mA Current Loop Step-Down Converter Portable Instruments Battery-Operated Digital Devices Battery Chargers Inverting Converters Intrinsic Safety Applications

Demonstration circuit DC2907A features the LT8338, a low IQ, Synchronous Boost Converter in a thermally enhanced 10-lead plastic MSOP package. DC2907A is designed to convert a 4V to 16V source to 24V output, with up to 460mA of load current, depending on the input voltage. It was designed with a switching frequency of 2.2MHz. DC2907A contains a selectable jumper, JP1, to aid in the selection of any of the five modes of operation. The default setting is Burst mode. This converter features Spread Spectrum Frequency Modulation, SSFM. The input and output filters installed on the PCB help suppress EMI noise, but the use of SSFM makes it easier to pass CISPR25 class 5 conducted and radiated emissions testing for automotive vehicles. To perform an EMI evaluation for this converter include the input filter by connecting the input source to the VEMI terminal and select the Burst+SSFM JP1 setting. EMI filters may not be necessary for all applications. For a lower parts count and BOM cost EMI filters can be removed. To do so, replace FB1 and FB2 with a zero ohm jumpers and remove all input and output filter components located inside the dashed-line rectangles on the schematic, plus C1 and C13. Proper board layout is essential for maximum thermal performance. See the datasheet section “Thermal Considerations”. The Performance Summary section details the ratings of the DC2907A at room temperature. The LT8338 datasheet gives a complete description of the part, operation and application information. The data sheet must be read in conjunction with this quick start guide for DC2907A. The LT8338 is available in a thermally-enhanced 10 lead plastic MSOP package.
