Demonstration circuit DC2886A is a high power, high efficiency six-phase bidirectional converter featuring the LTC7871 and LTC7060. The terminals labeled VHIGH and VLOW are either inputs or outputs depending on the direction of power flow. When the switch at SW1 is in the BUCK position, VLOW provides a 14V output and VHIGH is the input with a range of 30V to 70V. When the switch is in the BOOST position, VHIGH provides a 48V output and VLOW is the input with a range of 10V to 14V. The maximum VLOW current is 180A in both directions. The maximum output power is 2.5kW when operating as a buck within the input voltage range. When operating as a boost, the maximum output power is 2.4kW when the input voltage is 14V. External airflow is required when operating at maximum power. The MOSFETs in each phase are driven by the LTC7060 half bridge driver. Each LTC7060 gate driver is placed next to the MOSFETs and receives a PWM signal from the LTC7871. The inductor current for each phase is sensed with a low 1mΩ sense resistor using a highly accurate AC/DC current sensing architecture with low power dissipation. The LTC7871’s constant-current loop provides a DC current limit for the current flowing in or out of the VLOW terminal depending on the state of the BUCK pin. This current can be programmed with the SETCUR pin and monitored with the IMON pin. The DC2886A provides a SPI compatible serial port. With a DC2026C (Linduino® One) demo board and QuikEval™ software on a host computer, the user can: Margin the regulated VLOW or VHIGH up or down. Margin the DC current limit up or down with the SETCUR pin. Adjust the frequency spread and modulation rate of the spread spectrum circuit, when spread spectrum is enabled. Monitor the operational status and faults of the LTC7871. Additional features of the DC2886A include: Pin selectable light load operating modes Buck: FCM, pulse-skipping and Burst Mode® Operation Boost: FCM and pulse-skipping SYNC and CLKOUT pins Optional jumper to enable spread spectrum modulation RUN, FAULT, PGOOD and PWNEN pins BUCK pin to externally control the direction of power flow Footprint for an optional heatsink

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.

The ADM1272 ?is a hot swap controller that allows a circuit board to be removed from or inserted into a live backplane. It also features current, voltage, and power readback via an integrated 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), accessed using a PMBus? interface. This device is able to withstand up to 120 V, which makes it very robust in surviving surges and transients commonly associated with high voltage systems, usually clamped using protection devices such as transient voltage suppressors (TVSs) that can often exceed 100 V.The load current, ILOAD, is measured using an internal current sense amplifier that measures the voltage across a sense resistor in the power path via the SENSE+ and SENSE? pins. A default current limit sense voltage of 30 mV is set, but this limit can be?adjusted down, if required, using a resistor divider network from the VCAP regulator output voltage to the ISET pin. An additional resistor can also be placed from ISET to VIN (or VOUT) to allow the current limit to track inversely with the rail voltage. This resistor allows an approximate system power limit to be used.The ADM1272 ?limits the current through the sense resistor by controlling the gate voltage of an external N channel field effect transistor (FET) in the power path. The sense voltage, and therefore the load current, is maintained below the preset maximum. The ADM1272 ?protects the external FET by monitoring and limiting the energy transfer through the FET while the current is being controlled. This energy limit is set by the choice of components connected to the EFAULT pin (for fault protection mode) and the ESTART pin during startup. Therefore, different energy limits can be set for start-up and normal fault conditions. During startup, inrush currents are maintained very low and different areas of the safe operating area (SOA) curve are of interest, whereas during fault conditions, the currents can be much higher.The controller uses the drain to source voltage (VDS) across the FET to set the current profile of the EFAULT and ESTART pins and, therefore, the amount of much energy allowed to be transferred in the FET. This energy limit ensures the MOSFET remains within the SOA limits. Optionally, use a capacitor on the DVDT pin to set the output voltage ramp rate, if required. In case of a short-circuit event, a fast internal overcurrent detector responds in hundreds of ns and signals the gate to shut down. A 1.5 A pull-down device ensures a fast FET response. The gate then recovers control within 50 ?s to ensure minimal disruption during conditions, such as line steps and surges. The?ADM1272 ?features overvoltage (OV) and undervoltage (UV) protection, programmed using external resistor dividers on the UVH, UVL, and OV pins. The use of two pins for undervoltage allows independent accurate rising and falling thresholds. The PWRGD output pin signals when the output voltage is valid and the gate is sufficiently enhanced. The validity of VOUT is determined using the PWGIN pin.The 12-bit ADC measures the voltage across the sense resistor, the supply voltage on the SENSE+ pin, the output voltage, and the temperature using an external NPN/PNP device. A PMBus interface allows a controller to read data from the ADC. As many as 16 unique I2C addresses can be selected, depending on how the two ADRx pins are connected. The?ADM1272 is available in a custom 48-lead LFCSP (7 mm ? 8 mm) with a pinstrap mode that allows the device to be configured for automatic retry or latchoff when an overcurrent (OC) fault occurs.Applications 48 V/54 V systems Servers Power monitoring and control/power budgeting Central office equipment Telecommunication and data communication equipment Industrial applications

The LT3795 is a DC/DC controller designed to regulate a constant-current or constant-voltage and is ideal for driving LEDs. It drives a low side external N-channel power MOSFET from an internal regulated 7.7V supply. The fixed frequency and current mode architecture result in stable operation over a wide range of supply and output voltages. Spread spectrum frequency modulation (SSFM) can be activated for improved electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) performance. The ground referred voltage FB pin serves as the input for several LED protection features, and also allows the converter to operate as a constant-voltage source. The maximum output current is set by an external resistor, and the output current amplifier has a rail-to-rail common mode range. The LT3795 also includes a separate input current sensing amplifier that is used to limit input current. The TG pin inverts and level shifts the PWM signal to drive the gate of the external PMOS. The PWM input provides LED dimming ratios of up to 3000:1, and the CTRL inputs provide additional analog dimming capability.APPLICATIONS High Power LED, High Voltage LED Battery Chargers Accurate Current Limited Voltage Regulators
