DESCRIPTION

LTM4691

Low VIN, High Efficiency, Dual 2A Step-down

μModule DC/DC Converter

Demonstration circuit 2910A is low VIN, high efficiency,

and dual 2A output µModule DC/DC converter. The

board operates by default at a fixed 2MHz and can be

synchronized from 1MHz to 3MHz via the MODE/SYNC

pin. With its high switching frequency and current mode

architecture, a fast transient response to line and load

changes is possible without sacrificing stability. The

DC2910A can be used in forced continuous mode or pulse

skip mode for low noise, or in burst mode operation for All registered trademarks and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

high efficiency at light loads. The demo board features

the LTM

4691, which is available in a low profile 3mm

x 4mm x 1.2mm LGA package. Please see the LTM4691

datasheet for more detailed information.

It is recommended to read the data sheet for the LTM4691

prior to making any changes to the DC2910A.

Design files for this circuit board are available.

Specifications are at TA= 25°C

QUICK START PROCEDURE

Demonstration circuit 2910A is easy to set up to evaluate

the performance of the LTM4691. Refer to Figure1 for

the proper measurement equipment setup and follow the

procedure below.

1. With power off, connect the input power supply to VIN

(2.35V-3.6V) and GND (input return).

2. Connect the output loads between VOUT and GND

(Initial load: no load). Refer to Figure1.

3. Connect the DVMs to the input and output.

4. Check the default jumper position: JP2 (RUN1): OFF;

JP3 (RUN2): OFF.

5. Turn on the input power supply and adjust voltage to

2.35V – 3.6V;

NOTE:Make sure that the input voltage does not exceed

4.0V.

6. Change the following jumpers’position: JP2:ON; JP3:ON.

7. Check for the proper output voltages from VOUT to GND

turrets.

8. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust

the loads within the operating range and measure the

efficiency, output ripple voltage and other parameters.

9. After completing all tests, adjust the load to 0A, power

off the input power supply.

NOTES:

1. When measuring the output or input voltage ripple, do

not use the long ground lead on the oscilloscope probe.

See Figure3 for the proper scope probe technique. Short,

stiff leads need to be soldered to the (+) and (−) terminals

of an output capacitor. The probe’s ground ring needs to

touch the (−) lead and the probe tip needs to touch the

(+) lead.
