The LTC4238 is a high voltage high current Hot Swap controller that allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a live backplane. Dual 12V gate drive is well suited for high power applications to either share safe operating area across parallel MOSFETs or support a 2-stage start-up that first charges the load capacitance followed by enabling a low on-resistance path to the load.The device features active current limiting (ACL) with two foldback options as VDS increases. The constant power profile limits the power dissipation to be no higher than a fixed value, while the high power profile allows the part to ride through large input steps during operation.The LTC4238 notifies when output power is good. In addition, it has protection features that respond to input undervoltage, overvoltage; and generate a fault when there is an overcurrent or FET bad condition.Applications Live Board Insertion in 12V, 24V and 48V Systems Industrial High Side Switch/Circuit Breaker Computers, Servers Vehicle Electrical Systems

The LT3935 is a monolithic, synchronous, step-down DC/DC converter that utilizes fixed-frequency, peak current control and provides PWM dimming for a string of LEDs. The LED current is programmed by an analog voltage or the duty cycle of pulses at the CTRL pin. An output voltage limit can be set with a resistor divider to the FB pin.The switching frequency is programmable from 200kHz to 2MHz by an external resistor at the RT pin or by an external clock at the SYNC/SPRD pin. With the optional spread spectrum frequency modulation enabled, the frequency varies from 100% to 125% to reduce EMI.Additional features include an LED current monitor, an accurate EN/UVLO pin threshold, open-drain fault reporting for open-circuit and short-circuit load conditions, and thermal shutdown. The LT3935 utilizes proprietary Silent?Switcher technology for very low EMI.APPLICATIONSAutomotive LightingIndustrial and General Purpose Lighting

Demonstration circuit 2989A features the LTM4657 µModule® regulator, a high performance, high efficiency step-down regulator. The LTM4657 is a complete DC/DC point-of-load regulator in a thermally enhanced 6.25mm x 6.25mm x 3.87mm BGA package. The LTM4657 has an operating input voltage range of 3.1V to 20V and provides an output current up to 8A. The output voltage is programmable from 0.6V to 5.5V and can be remotely sensed. The stacked inductor design improves thermal dissipation and significantly reduces the package area.  Output voltage tracking is available through the TRACK/SS pin for supply rail sequencing. External clock synchronization is available through the SYNC/MODE pin. For high efficiency at low load currents, select DCM mode operation using the MODE jumper (JP7) in less noise sensitive applications. The LTM4657 data sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual for working on or modifying DC2989A.

Demonstration circuit 2991A features the LTC3308A 5V, 4A synchronous step-down Silent Switcher® operating as a 2.0MHz, 3.3V to 1.2V 4A buck regulator. The LTC3308A supports adjustable output voltages from 0.5V to VIN with operating frequencies from 1MHz up to 3MHz. The LTC3308A is a compact, ultralow emission, high efficiency, and high speed synchronous monolithic stepdown switching regulator. A minimum on-time switching of 22ns enables high VIN to low VOUT conversion ratios at high frequencies. The DC2991A operating mode may be selected as BURST, SKIP or Forced Continuous (FC) mode. Setting JP1 to the FC/SYNC position will allow the LTC3308A to sync to a clock frequency from 1MHz to 3MHz. The LTC3308A operates in forced continuous mode when syncing to an external clock. The DC2991A is set to a fixed 2MHz frequency by connecting RT to VIN through a 0Ω resistor, R9. The frequency can be easily changed by removing R9 and setting an appropriate resistor in the R4 location to obtain the desired frequency. Refer to the LTC3308A data sheet for the proper RT value for a desired switching frequency. The DC2991A also has an EMI filter to reduce conducted EMI. This EMI filter can be included by applying the input voltage at the VIN EMI terminal. The EMI performance of the board is shown in the EMI Test Results section. The red lines in the EMI performance graphs illustrate the CISPR25 Class 5 peak limits for the conducted and radiated emission tests. The LTC3308A data sheet gives a complete description of the device, operation and application information. The data sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual.
