Demonstration circuit 2616A-C features a polyphase design using the LTM4645EY, a 25A high efficiency, switch mode step-down power µModule regulator. The input voltage range is from 6V to 15V. To use DC2616A-C for input voltage range from 4.7V to 6V, connect INTVCC to SVIN (change R22, R42, R55, R68 from OPT to 0Ω), DRVCC to VIN (change R21, R38, R52, R65 from 0Ω to OPT, R2, R39, R53, R66 from OPT to 0Ω). The output voltage range is 0.6V to 1.8V. The DC2616A-C can deliver a nominal 100A output current with four LTM4645 modules in parallel. As explained in the data sheet, output current derating is necessary for certain VIN, VOUT, and thermal conditions. The board operates in continuous conduction mode in heavy load conditions. For high efficiency at low load currents, the MODE_PLLIN jumper selects pulseskipping mode for noise sensitive applications or burst mode operation in less noise sensitive applications. The MODE_PLLIN pin also allows the LTM4645 to synchronize to an external clock signal. The phase shift between two adjacent phases is 90 degrees. DC2616A-C has the option of choosing both internal and external compensation circuit for LTM4645. The LTM4645 data sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual prior to working on or modifying demo circuit DC2616A-C.

The LTC4381 is an integrated solution for low quiescent current eFuse with an internal 9m? N-Channel MOSFET. Overvoltage protection is provided by clamping the gate voltage of an internal 9m? N-channel MOSFET to limit the output voltage to a safe value during overvoltage events such as load dump in automobiles. The MOSFET safe operating area is production tested and guaranteed for the stresses during high voltage transients. Fixed output clamp voltages are selectable for 12V and 24V/28V systems. For systems of any voltage up to 80V, use the adjustable clamp versions.Overcurrent protection is also provided. An internal multiplier generates a TMR pin current proportional to VDS and ID, so that operating time in both overcurrent and overvoltage conditions is limited in accordance with MOSFET stress.The GATE pin can drive back-to-back MOSFETs for reverse input protection, eliminating the voltage drop and dissipation of a Schottky diode solution. A low 6?A operating current permits use in always-on and battery powered applications.APPLICATIONS Automotive 12V, 24V and 48V System Avionic/Industrial Surge Protection Hot Swap/Live Insertion High Side Switch for Battery Powered Systems Automotive Load Dump Protection

Demonstration circuit 2719A is a high performance bidirectional buck-boost converter featuring the LT8708/ LT8708-1 that can operate from input voltages above, below or equal to the output voltage. The demo board input range is 10.5V to 14.5V (25VMAX). The output voltage is set at 14.5V and the output current limit at 40A. The board can operate in both forward and reverse mode. The controller has integrated input voltage and output voltage regulators and two sets of input and output current regulators that control current flow in forward or reverse direction. Features are included that simplify bidirectional power conversion in battery/capacitor backup systems and other applications that may need regulation of VIN, VOUT, IIN and/or IOUT. While the current mode control limits the inductor current both in normal and in reverse direction these current limits have some variation as input/output voltage changes. The forward and reverse input and output current regulators offer four accurate current limits that can be set individually. The input voltage regulator is often used in applications with high impedance power sources and will reduce the forward current if the input voltage drops below the set point. When operating with reverse current flow, the input voltage regulator regulates the voltage at the input side. The operating mode of the controller is determined through the MODE pin (jumper JP9 Pins 5 to 12) and can be set to discontinuous mode, hybrid discontinuous mode, forced continuous mode and Burst Mode® operation. The LT8708 is capable of bidirectional operation when operating in the continuous conduction mode (CCM). DCM, HCM and Burst Mode operation only allow power to flow in one direction. Additional circuitry may be needed depending on the application.

Demonstration circuit DC2744 is a two stage DC/DC boost converter featuring the LTC7840, a constant frequency current mode boost controller. The DC2744A operates over a 9V to 36V input voltage range. The first stage boost generates VOUT1 at 48V. The second stage boost takes this 48V input and provides a 240V output with 0.7A of load current. The 150kHz constant frequency operation results in a small and efficient circuit. The converter provides high output voltage accuracy (typically ±3%) over a wide load range with no minimum load requirement. The demonstration circuit can be easily modified to generate different output voltages. The DC2744 has small circuit footprint. It is a high performance cost effective solution for applications that require high step-up voltage ratios and high output power.

Demonstration Circuit 2745A features the LTC3309A 5V, 6A synchronous step-down silent switcher operating as a 2MHz 3.3V to 1.2V 6A buck regulator. The LTC3309A supports adjustable output voltages from 0.5V to VIN, operating frequencies from 1MHz up to 3MHz. The LTC3309A is a compact, ultralow emission, high efficiency, and high speed synchronous monolithic step-down switching regulator. Fast minimum on-time of 22ns enables high VIN to low VOUT conversion at high frequency. DC2745A operating mode may be selected as Burst Mode® operation, skip or forced continuous (FC) mode. Setting JP1 to the FC/SYNC position will allow the LTC3309A to sync to a clock frequency from 1MHz to 3MHz. The LTC3309A operates in forced continuous mode when syncing to an external clock. RT is connected to VIN through a 0Ω resistor, R9, which sets the operating frequency to 2MHz. 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 LTC3309A data sheet for the proper RT value. The DC2745A 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.
