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 LTC3336 is a compact high efficiency nanopower hysteretic buck DC/DC which can deliver up to 250mA of output current from a 2.5V to 15V input.
