DEMO MANUAL DC2044A
LTC4020EUHF
High Voltage Buck-Boost
Multi-Chemistry Battery Charger
Description
Demonstration circuit 2044A is a 55V buck-boost multichemistry battery charger featuring the LTC4020. The board
will accept an input voltage between 15V and 55V. The
float voltage of the battery output (BAT) is 25.2V, with 3.3A
maximum charge current. The converter output (VOUT)
has a voltage range of 21V to 28V, with 3A maximum load
current. The LTC4020 contains a high efficiency synchronous buck-boost DC/DC controller and uses a proprietary
average current mode architecture.
The LTC4020 battery charger can provide a constantcurrent/constant-voltage charge algorithm (CC/CV, with
MODE pin grounded), constant-current charging (CC, with

MODE pin floated), or charging with an optimized 4-step,
3-stage lead-acid battery charge profile (connect MODE pin
to INTVCC, with a 0Ω jumper at the optional R29 position).
The LTC4020 data sheet gives a complete description of the
IC operation and application information. The data sheet
must be read in conjunction with this quick start guide.

DEMO MANUAL DC2044A
Quick Start Procedure
Demonstration circuit 2044A is easy to set up to evaluate
the performance of the LTC4020. Refer to Figure 1 for
the proper measurement equipment setup and follow the
procedure below:
Additional Notes:
1.With power off, connect the input power supply (set
for 0V) to VIN and GND (input return).
2. CAUTION: Batteries are potentially dangerous high
energy sources. Improper connection, overcharge, or
rapid discharge could result in explosion and/or file.
Please read the specification/manual of the battery
before test.
2.Connect the converter output load between VOUT and
GND (Initial load: no load).
3.Connect the DVMs to the input and outputs.
4.Turn on the input power supply and slowly increase
to 24V. Check for the proper output voltages, VOUT of
25.2V and BAT of 25.2V.
5.Once the proper output voltages are established, adjust
the converter output load within the operating range (3A
maximum) and/or adjust input voltage (15V to 55V) and
observe the output voltage regulation, ripple voltage,
efficiency and other parameters.
Note: When measuring the output or input voltage ripple,
do not use the long ground lead on the oscilloscope probe.
See Figure 2 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.
1. CAUTION: Be careful when testing with high voltage.
High voltage can result in an electric shock if care
is not taken.
3. The combined converter output load current and battery charging current should not exceed 3.3A.
4. Without a proper battery, BAT output can be open or
connected with other suitable loads for test purposes.
It may be a good practice to add low ESR electrolytic
capacitors to the BAT output (≥1000µF at ≥35V, for
25.2V float voltage).
Note: These capacitors help simulate the low impedance
of a battery and maintain stability of the charge current
loop. It’s only needed for test purposes with electronic
or resistive loads, and not needed in the actual battery
application/test (where the BAT load is a battery).
5. BAT float voltage can be easily adjusted with the resistor divider R8/R10. Converter output voltage VOUT can
be adjusted with the resistor divider R9/R11. Adjust/
optimize the loop compensations if necessary.
