DEMO MANUAL DC823B-A

DESCRIPTION

LTM4600:

20V, 10A Step-Down Power

µModule

Regulator

Demonstration circuit DC823B-A features the

LT M

4600EV, a 10A high efficiency, high density switch

mode step-down power module. The input voltage is from

4.5V to 20V. The output voltage is programmable from

0.6V to 5V. The rated load current is 10A, while derating is

necessary for different VIN, VOUT, and thermal conditions.

Integrated input and output filters enable a simple PCB

layout. Only bulk input and output capacitors are needed.

QUICK START PROCEDURE

Figure 1. Test Set-Up of DC823B-A (EXTVCC VBIAS Supply is Optional)

Demonstration circuit DC823B-A is an easy way to evalu-

ate the performance of the LTM4600EV. Refer to Figure 1

for proper measurement equipment set-up and follow the

procedure below:

1. Place jumpers in the following positions for a typical

1.5VOUT application:

FCB RUN/SS VOUT Select

CCM ON 1.5V

2. With power off, connect the input power supply,

load, optional 5V bias supply and meters as shown in

Figure 1. Preset the load to 0A and VIN supply to be less

than 20V. The optional 5V bias supply applied to the

EXTVCC pin must be off while the main VIN is turned off.

3. Turn on the power at the input. The output voltage

should be 1.5V ± 2%.

4. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjustthe

load within the operating range and observe the output

voltage regulation, ripple voltage, efficiency and other

parameters. Output voltage ripple should be measured

at J6 with a BNC cable.

5. For optional load transient test, apply an adjustable

pulse signal between IOSTEP CLK and GND pins.

Pulse amplitude sets the current step. The pulse signal

should have very small duty cycle (<15%) to limit the

thermal stress of the transient load circuit. The output

transient current can be monitored at BNC connector

J5 (10mV/A).
