The LTC2952 is a power management device that features three main functions: pushbutton on/off control of system power, ideal diode PowerPath? controllers and system monitoring. The LTC2952?s pushbutton input, which provides on/off control of system power, has independently adjustable ON and OFF debounce times. A simple microprocessor interface involving an interrupt signal allows for proper system housekeeping prior to power-down. The ideal diode PowerPath controllers provide automatic low loss switchover between two DC sources by regulating two external P-channel MOSFETs to have a small 20mV forward drop. High reliability systems may utilize the LTC2952?s monitoring features to ensure system integrity. These features include: power-fail, voltage monitoring and ?P watchdog. The LTC2952 operates over a wide operating voltage range to accommodate a large variety of input power supplies. The part?s combination of low 20mV external MOSFET regulation and very low standby current matches battery powered and power conscious application requirements.Applications Desktop and Notebook Computers Portable Instrumentations Cell Phones, PDA and Handheld Computers Servers and Computer Peripherals Battery Backup Systems

Demonstration circuit 1060 features two LT3508 step-down DC/DC switching converters. One circuit uses the LT3508EFE and the other circuit has the LT3508EUF. The LT3508 dual output step-down switching regulator has two internal power switches, a wide input voltage range, adjustable switching frequency synchronizable over the frequency range, programmable soft-start, tracking, power-good, and channel sequencing.
