LT8714
Synchronous Four-Quadrant
Converter
Description
Demonstration circuit 2240A is a synchronous fourquadrant converter featuring the LT® 8714 switching
controller. The LT8714 can regulate to positive, negative,
or zero volts when configured as a four-quadrant topology. The DC2240A regulates from a 10V to 14V input
source to an adjustable output voltage from positive 5V
to negative 5V with a 5A maximum current rating, and
operates at 200kHz switching frequency.
The LT8714 incorporates a power good feature to let
the user know if the output voltage is within its target
regulation voltage.
The LT8714 has an output voltage control (CTRL) pin
which sets the output voltage. The DC2240A has a
Performance Summary
PARAMETER
jumper to select the CTRL pin voltage source from either
externally (EXT) or internally (INT). If selected internally,
the output voltage can be set to +5V or –5V. If selected
externally, the output voltage can vary between positive
5V and negative 5V, following a 0.1V – 1V CTRL signal
with high bandwidth.
The LT8714 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 2240A.

Quick Start Procedure
Demonstration circuit 2240A is easy to set up to evaluate the performance of the LT8714. Refer to Figure 1 for
proper measurement equipment setup and follow the
procedure below:
1. With the power off, connect the input power supply to
the board through VIN and PGND terminals. Connect
the load to the terminals VOUT and PGND on the board.
Make sure that the input power supply has sufficient
current rating at minimum input voltage for the required
output load.
2. Turn on the power at the input.
NOTE: Make sure that the input voltage does not
exceed 14V.

3. Check for the proper output voltages. The output should
be regulated at +5.0V (±3%).
If there is no output, temporarily disconnect the load
to make sure that the load is not set too high.
4. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust
the input voltage and load current within the operating
range and observe the output voltage regulation, ripple
voltage, efficiency and other parameters.
NOTE: When measuring the input or output voltage
ripples, care must be taken to avoid a long ground lead
on the oscilloscope probe. Measure the input or output
voltage ripple by touching the probe tip directly across
the VIN and PGND, or VOUT and PGND terminals. See
Figure 2 for proper scope probe technique.
