DC2275A - Demo Manual

DEMO MANUAL DC2275A
LT8331
Boost/SEPIC/Inverting
Regulator
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit DC2275A features the LT®8331 in
boost configuration. The demo circuit demonstrates small
size and low component count. The boost is designed to
convert a 10V to 48V source to 120V at 25mA to 80mA.
DC2275A includes an optional circuit on the back of the
board for a charge pump that can be used to double the
output voltage.
The default mode for this application is pulse-skip mode,
but removal of R13 allows for other modes to be used
for different applications. A jumper from sync to ground
will put the converter in Burst Mode® operation, or an
external clock can be used to synchronize the converter
to an external frequency.

Output Voltage Range
The LT8331 can operate with inputs as high as 100V but
in this demo circuit, the input is limited by the voltage
rating of the input capacitor.
The LT8331 includes many other features such as synchronization to external clock, user configurable undervoltage
lockout, soft-start, frequency foldback, and it is easily
configured as boost, SEPIC or inverting converter.
The data sheet gives a complete description of the device,
operation and application information. The data sheet must
be read in conjunction with this demo manual for DC2275A.

DEMO MANUAL DC2275A
QUICK START PROCEDURE
Demonstration circuit DC2275A is easy to set up to evaluate the performance of the LT8331. Refer to Figure 1 for
proper measurement equipment setup and follow the
procedure below:
NOTE: When measuring the input or output voltage ripple,
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 or
VOUT and GND terminals. See Figure 3 for proper scope
probe technique.
1. With power off, connect the input power supply to VIN
and GND.
2. Turn on the power at the input.
NOTE: Make sure that the input voltage does not
exceed 48V.
3. Check for the proper output voltage.
NOTE: 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 voltages are established, adjust
the load within the operating range and observe the
output voltage regulation, ripple voltage, efficiency and
other parameters.
