DESCRIPTION

LT3507A

Triple Monolithic Step-Down

Regulator with LDO

Democircuit1781AisaTripleMonolithicStep-DownRegu-

lator with LDO featuring the LT3507A. The demo circuit

is designed for 1.8V, 3.3V, 5.0V and 2.5V outputs from a

7V to 36V input. The current capability of each channel

is 2.7A, 1.5A, 1.8A and 0.3A respectively. Independent

input voltage, feedback, soft-start and power good pins

for each channel simplify complex power supply tracking/

sequencing requirements.

All three converters are either synchronized to a common

external clock input or single-resistor programmable from

250kHz to 2.5MHz using internal oscillator. At all frequen-

cies, a 180° phase shift between VOUT1 and the other two

outputs is maintained, reducing input voltage ripple and L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks of Linear

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

component size. Programmable frequency allows for opti-

mization between efficiency and external component size.

Each output can be independently disabled using its own

soft-start pin, or by using the SD terminal the entire part

can be placed in a low quiescent current shutdown mode.

The LT3507A data sheet gives a complete description of

the part, operation and application information. The data

sheet must be read in conjunction with this quick start

guide for demo circuit 1781A.

QUICK START PROCEDURE

Demo circuit 1781A is easy to set up to evaluate the

performance of the LT3507A. Refer to Figure 2 for proper

measurement equipment setup and follow the procedure

below:

NOTE. When measuring the input or output voltage

ripple, care must be taken to avoid a long ground lead

on the oscilloscope probe. Measure the input or output

voltage ripple by touching the probe tip directly across

the VIN or VOUT and GND terminals. See Figure 3 for

proper scope probe technique.

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

and GND.

2. Turn on the power at the input.

NOTE. Make sure that the input voltage does not ex-

ceed 36V.

3. Check for the proper output voltages.

NOTE. If there is no output, temporarily disconnect

the load to make sure that the load is not set too high.

4. Once the proper output voltages are established, adjust

the load within the operating range and observe the

output voltage regulation, ripple voltage, efficiency and

other parameters.

SYNC FUNCTION

Install a 10k R20 resistor if the board is synchronized from

an external signal generator.

EMI FILTER

Install EMI filters on the backside of the DC1781A, how-

ever, a trace cut is required for the insertion of the option

circuit. See Figure 4 for the cut line.
