DC1563A-C: Demo Board for the LTC2312-12 - 12-Bit, 500ksps Serial Sampling ADC in TSOT.

DC1593A-B: Demo Board for the LTC2635-12 Quad 12-Bit I2C VOUT DACs with 10ppm/°C Reference.

Demonstration circuit 1812A-C features the LTC2943-1. The LTC2943-1 has an operating range of 3.6V to 20V making it perfectly suited for multicell battery applications. A precision analog coulomb counter integrates current measured through the internal sense resistor. The LTC2943-1 measures voltage, current and temperature with an internal 14-bit No Latency ΔΣ™ ADC. The measurements are stored in internal registers accessible via the onboard SMBus/I2C interface.

Demonstration circuit 2085 supports the LTC2000 and LTC2000A, a high speed, high dynamic range family of DACs. It was specially designed for applications that require differential DC coupled outputs. DC2085 supports the complete family of the LTC2000 including 16, 14 and 11 bit parts. Companion Board : Stratix board

Demonstration circuit 2788A is a boost LED driver featuring the LT®3950. This demonstration circuit powers a string of LEDs at 330mA. The step-up topology can be used to drive a string of up to 28V of LEDs as assembled. The maximum output voltage capability of the LT3950 is 60V. DC2788A runs from an input voltage range of 6V to 24V as built. It also runs at 2MHz and has the capability to turn on spread spectrum frequency modulation (SSFM) for a frequency range of 2.0MHz to 2.5MHz. Dimming control can be achieved with analog dimming or PWM dimming—either from an external or internally-generated clock source. DC2788A features undervoltage lockout (UVLO) set at 6.6V with a 1.0V hysteresis for turn-on. The UVLO voltage, LED current, output voltage range, switching frequency, brightness control, SSFM, and the topology can all be adjusted with simple modifications to the demonstration circuit. LT3950 is a monolithic 1.5A peak switch current, 60V LED driver. The guaranteed peak switch current rating of the IC is 1.5A and this is important to know when calculating maximum output current at a given LED voltage and input voltage for a boost converter. The LT3950 features SSFM and a well-controlled SW node for low emissions. A frequency range of 200kHz to 2MHz and a high-side PWMTG PWM-dimming MOSFET makes this a very versatile IC for many applications. It can be used for boost, buck-boost mode and buck mode LED driver applications. The PWMTG MOSFET not only provides high PWM dimming ratio capability, but it also serves as a short-circuit protection device. The FAULT flag indicates when there is either a short-circuit or open-LED fault at the output. The demo circuit is designed to be easily reconfigured to suit other applications, including the example schematics in the data sheet. Consult technical support for assistance. High voltage operation, 3V input voltage operation, multiple topologies, small-and-compact size, fault protection, low EMI, and multiple brightness control options make the LT3950 flexible and powerful for compact, noise-sensitive LED driver solutions. The LT3950JMSE featured on this demo circuit is available in a thermally enhanced 16-lead plastic MSOP package. The LT3950 data sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual to properly use or modify demo circuit DC2788A.

Demonstration circuit 833 is an ultralow dropout voltage supply using the 1.5A output current LTC3026 linear regulator in a small 3mm × 3mm 10-Pin DFN package. The DC833 has an input voltage range from 1.14V to 3.5V when the internal boost converter is enabled, and a maximum input voltage of 5.5V when an external source is supplied. The output voltage jumper-selectable and can be set to 0.8V, 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.5V, 1.8V or a user-defined value between 0.4V and 2.6V. The 0.4V reference of the LTC3026 allows the DC833 to supply power to very low voltage applications. The DC833 is also an excellent choice for post regulation of step-down switching regulators, creating a high efficiency low-noise supply. The DC833 comes assembled with small ceramic capacitors, showing the LTC3026's ability to maintain stability with ceramic output capacitors.

Demonstration circuit 2350B features the LTC6813-1, 18-channel battery-stack monitor. Multiple boards can be linked through a 2-wire isolated serial interface (isoSPI™) to monitor a long series of cells in a stack. The DC2350B demo board also features reversible isoSPI enabling a redundant communication path. The PCB, components, and DuraClik connectors are optimized for low EMI susceptibility and emissions. The DC2350B can communicate to a PC by connecting a DC2792B dual master isoSPI together with DC2026C Linduino® One. The DC2026 must be loaded with the appropriate program (called a sketch) to control the battery-stack monitor IC and receive data through a USB serial port. The DC2026 provides a standard SPI interface which can be translated to isoSPI and then connected to a DC2350B isoSPI port (J4 or J5 connector). The DC2792B companion board provides two SPI-isoSPI channels for reversible operation.
