DESCRIPTION

LTM8026

36V, 5A, CVCC Step-Down µModule Regulator

Demonstration circuit 1696 is a 36V, 5A, CVCC step-down

μModule regulator featuring the LTM8026. The demo

circuit is designed for a 3.3V output from an input volt-

age range of 6V to 36V. The output can source 5A. The

circuit can be operated in either constant voltage mode

or constant current mode.

QUICK START PROCEDURE

Figure 1. Proper Measurement Equipment Setup

Demonstration circuit 1696 is an easy way to evaluate

the performance of the LTM8026. Refer to Figure 1 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

and GND or VOUT and GND terminals.

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

and GND.

2. Connect a load to VOUT and GND.

3. Turn on the power at the input.

4. Check for the proper output voltage and current.

NOTE. If there is no output, temporarily disconnect the

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

5. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust the

load and input within the operating ranges and observe

the output voltage regulation, output current regulation,

ripple voltage, efficiency and other parameters.
