DEMO MANUAL DC1439A
LT3688 Dual 800mA Step-Down
Switching Regulator with Power-On
Reset and Watchdog Timer
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 1439A is an adjustable dual monolithic step-down switching regulator with two power-on
reset timers and a watchdog timer. The regulator operates
off inputs up to 36V and withstands transients up to 60V.
The two buck outputs are capable of generating up to
800mA each and both of them have independent RUN/SS
function. The reset and watchdog timeout periods are both
adjustable using external capacitors.
The LT3688 is available in 24-Pin TSSOP and 4mm ×
4mm QFN packages, each with an exposed pad for low
thermal resistance.
PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
The LT3688 data sheet gives a complete description of
the part, operation and application information. The data
sheet must be read in conjunction with this quick start
guide for demo circuit 1439A.

DEMO MANUAL DC1439A
QUICK START PROCEDURE
Demonstration circuit 1439A is easy to set up to evaluate the performance of the LT3688. Refer to Figure 1 for
proper measurement equipment setup and follow the
procedure below:
1.Place Jumper JP1 in the following position:
OFF: Watchdog Disabled
ON: Watchdog Enabled
2.With power off, connect the input power supply to VIN
and GND.
3. With power off, connect loads from VOUT1 to GND and
VOUT2 to GND.
4.Turn on the power at the input.
NOTE. Make sure that the input voltage does not exceed
36V.
5.Check for the proper output voltages:
VOUT1 = 5V, VOUT2 = 3.3V
NOTE. If there is no output, temporarily disconnect the
load to make sure that the load is not set too high or
is shorted.
6. Once the proper output voltages are established, adjust
the loads within the operating range and observe the
output voltage regulation, ripple voltage, efficiency and
other parameters.
7. To test the watchdog timer, connect a clock input to the
WDI terminal. Observe the output at the WDO terminal
while the clock parameters are adjusted.
8.To test Power-On Reset, observe output at the RESET
terminals: RST1 and RST2.
