Description
Demonstration circuit 2230A-B features the
1EY, a 40A high efficiency, switch mode step-down power

overvoltage protection. The input voltage range is from
4.7V to 15V. For input voltage range from 4.7V to 5.5V,

R17. The output voltage range is 0.6V to 3.3V. Derating
is necessary for certain V
conditions. The board operates in continuous conduc-
tion mode in heavy load conditions. For high efficiency
at low load currents, the MODE_PLLIN jumper selects

tions. The MODE_PLLIN pin also allows the LTM4636
4636-
to synchronize to an external clock signal. DC2230A-B
has the option of choosing both internal and external
compensation circuit for LTM4636-1. Tying the PHASMD
pin to different voltage generates certain phase difference
between MODE_PLLIN and CLKOUT. The LTM4636-1 data
sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual
prior to working on or modifying demo circuit DC2230A-B.
