QUICK START GUIDE FOR DEMONSTRATION CIRCUIT 1029
Multi Channel Power Supply Sequencer and Supervisor
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 1029 is for evaluating the per-
formance of the LTC2928 Multichannel Power Supply
Sequencer and Supervisor.
The LTC2928 sequences and monitors up to four
power channels in power up and power down, and it
monitors those channel outputs in the steady state,
when power goes to loads. Sequencing is accom-
plished by controlling the power supply enable inputs
or N-channel MOSFET gates with the LTC2928 control-
ling outputs. Supervisory functions include undervolt-
age and overvoltage monitoring, and capturing the
output state information in the event of a system fault.
Inherent fault detection circuitry can detect:
Stalled (during sequencing) supplies
I
Supplies with the output voltage not satisfying the
I
undervoltage or overvoltage conditions
System controller command errors
