DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 1489A is a 65V input, 500mA output
DC/DC power supply featuring the LTC3630. The IC operates
in a high efficiency Burst Mode
internal high and low side switches. The board will accept
an input voltage between 4V and 65V, and provide jumper
selected output voltages of 1.8V, 3.3V, 5V and an option
for additional voltages. The IC includes internal soft-start
and a provision for increasing soft-start time.
Included on the board is an ON/OFF jumper that can also
be configured as a precision undervoltage lockout. Ad-
ditional PC pads are included for programming current
limit to optimize efficiency and for reducing output voltage
ripple and reducing component size. A terminal (FBO)

High Efficiency 65V 500mA
is included to allow multiple boards to be paralleled for
increase output current.
Output voltage between 800mV and V
using optional resistors, although higher voltage output
capacitors will be required.
