Analog Devices LTM4686B | Demoboard DC3089A

Description

Demonstration circuit 3089A is a dual-output, high efficiency,high density, μModule regulator with 2.7V to 5.75V input range. Each output can supply 14A maximum load current. The demo board has a LTM4686B μModule regulator, which is a dual 14A or single 28A step-down regulator with digital power system management. Please see LTM4686B data sheet for more detailed information.DC3089A powers up to default settings and produce power based on configuration resistors without the need for any serial bus communication. This allows easy evaluation of the DC/DC converter. To fully explore the extensive power system management features of the part, download the GUI software LTpowerPlay™ onto your PC and use LTC’s I2C/SMBus/PMBus dongle DC1613A to connect to the board. LTpowerPlay allows the user to reconfigure the part on the fly and store the configuration in EEPROM,view telemetry of voltage, current, temperature and fault status.
