    External signals include the input oscillator and the reference voltage. The power train signals include the current sense and the feedback voltage. The output signal is a square-wave pulse. The power train used for the MCP1630 Dual Buck Reference Design is a dual synchronous buck regulator.
  • Page 12 2.3.2 Power Present and Power Good Indication 1. The MCP1630 Dual Buck Reference Design has two status LED’s. One LED (D3) is used to determine if input voltage is present. 2. The second LED (D1) is used for fault and power good indication. During normal operation, if both regulator outputs are within regulation, D1 is illuminated to provide indication that power is good.
  • Page 13 Installation and Operations 2.3.3 Programming 1. The MCP1630 Dual Buck Reference Design can be programmed to calibrate , output sequencing or tracking and switching frequency dithering OUT1 OUT2 on or off. 2. To enter the programming mode, apply input voltage within the specified operating range (9V to 13.5V).
