DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 2784B-A is a high efficiency, high
density, µModule
regulator with 4.5V to 16V input range.
®
The output voltage is adjustable from 0.5V to 1.8V and it
can supply 200A maximum load current. The demo board
has two
LTM
4700
µModule regulators, which is a dual
®
50A or single 100A step-down regulator with digital power
system management. See LTM4700 data sheet for more
detailed information.
The DC2784B-A powers up to default settings and pro-
duces 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 graphical user interface (GUI)
