Demonstration circuit 2784B-A is easy to set up to evalu-
ate the performance of the LTM4700EY. Refer to Figure 2
for the proper measurement equipment setup and follow
the procedure below.
1. With power off, connect the input power supply to VIN
(4.5V to 16V) and GND (input return).
2. Connect the 1.0V output load between VOUT and GND
(initial load: no load).
3. Connect the DVMs to the input and outputs. Set default
jumper position: JP1: ON; JP2: ON; JP3: ON.

4. Turn on the input power supply and check for the
proper output voltages. V
5. Once the proper output voltages are established,
adjust the loads within the operating range and ob-
serve the output voltage regulation, ripple voltage and
other parameters.
6. Connect the dongle and control the output voltages
from the GUI. See "LTpowerPlay GUI for the LTM4700
Quick Start Guide" for details.
NOTE: Internal bias circuit is enabled when V
JP3 is ON.
NOTE: When measuring the output or input voltage rip-
ple, do not use the long ground lead on the oscilloscope
probe. See Figure 3 for the proper scope probe technique.
Short, stiff leads need to be soldered to the (+) and (–)
terminals of an output capacitor. The probe's ground ring
needs to touch the (–) lead and the probe tip needs to
touch the (+) lead.
