DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 2087A is a single-output, high ef-
ficiency, high density, µModule
input range. It can supply 26A maximum load current. The
demo board has a
LTM
4676
®
a dual 13A or single 26A step-down regulator with PMBus
power system management. Please see LTM4676 data
sheet for more detailed information.
DC2087A powers up to default settings and produces power
based on configuration resistors without the need for any
serial bus communication. This allows easy evaluation of
the DC/DC converter. To fully explore the extensive power
system management features of the part, download the
GUI software LTpowerPlay™ onto your PC and use LTC's
