Description
Demonstration circuit 2166A features the
a 20A high efficiency, switch mode step-down power
µModule
regulator. The input voltage range is from
®
2.375V to 7V. The output voltage range is 0.6V to 5.5V.
Derating is necessary for certain V
thermal conditions. The DC2166A offers the TRACK/SS pin
allowing the user to program output tracking or soft-start
period. The board operates in continuous conduction mode
in heavy load conditions. For high efficiency at low load
currents, the MODE jumper (JP3) selects pulse-skipping
mode for noise sensitive applications or Burst Mode
operation in less noise sensitive applications. There is an

Low V
on board boost circuit using LT1935 to provide control
power to LTM4639 when V
has on board diode connected PNP transistors to monitor
its internal temperature. A temperature sensor LTC2997
converts the internal temperature to an analog voltage out-
put. The LTM4639 data sheet must be read in conjunction
with this demo manual prior to working on or modifying
demo circuit DC2166A.
