DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 1543A features the LTM
high efficiency, high density switch mode step-down power
μModule regulator with superior input and load protection
features. The input voltage range is from 4.5V to 38V. The
output voltage is jumper programmable from 0.8V to 6V
with a rated load current of 10A. Derating is necessary
for certain V
, V
IN
DC1543A offers the TRACK/SS pin allowing the user to
program output tracking or soft-start period. The DC1543A
allows the user to enable/disable input undervoltage

tion; and latching/non-latching overtemperature protection.
Higher efficiency at low load currents is achieved by setting
the MODE pin jumper to DCM. The LTM4641 data sheet
must be read in conjunction with this demo manual prior
to working on or modifying demo circuit 1543A.
