DESCRIPTION
Demo Circuit 3091A features the
6A/dual-phase 12A step-down DC/DC regulator IC. This
demo circuit is configured as a 2MHz, 3.3V input buck
regulator with dual 6A output at 1.2V and 1.8V.
The LTC3312SA features dual monolithic synchronous 6A
step-down power stages in a 3mm × 4mm package for
space saving applications with demanding performance
requirements. Both bucks achieve high efficiency and
fast transient response with small external components.
The LTC3312SA can also be configured as a single out-
put, dual-phase 12A step-down converter. Please refer
to DC3092A as a single output dual-phase application
example. The LTC3312SA data sheet gives a complete
description of its operation and application information.

DEMO MANUAL DC3091A
The data sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo
manual when evaluating or modifying this demo circuit.
DC3091A supports three operation modes, including
pulse skip, forced continuous and Burst Mode
The clock frequency and the operation mode are shared by
both regulators. User can select desired operation mode
with JP1 jumper. Setting JP1 to FC/SYNC position also
allows the LTC3312SA to sync to a clock frequency from
1MHz to 3MHz, operating in forced continuous mode.
An EMI filter is included in this demo circuit for noise
sensitive applications. To power with EMI filter, please
apply input voltage via VIN EMI terminal.
