DC1778B - Demo Manual

DEMO MANUAL DC1778B-A
LTC3883EUH
Single-Phase, Step-Down
DC/DC Controller with
Digital Power Management
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 1778B-A is a single-output, synchronous buck converter featuring the LTC3883EUH, a
single-output current mode controller with digital power
management and input current sense capability. It senses
output inductor current across a sense resistor.
The board can be populated with the LTC3883EUH-1, which
allows the user to provide bias power to the IC from an
external power supply to save on-board LDO power loss.
The output voltage of the board can be programmed from
0.5V to 5V, with output current up to 20A. The factory
default setting for the output is 1.8V.
The DC1778B-A powers up to default settings and produces power based on configuration resistors, or NVM,
without the need for any serial bus communication. This
allows easy evaluation of the DC/DC converter aspects
of the LTC3883. To fully explore the extensive digital
PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
power management features of the part, download the
LTpowerPlay® GUI software onto your PC and use LTC’s
I2C/SMBus/PMBus dongle DC1613A to connect to the
board. LTpowerPlay allows the user to reconfigure the part
on- the-fly and store the configuration in EEPROM, view
telemetry of voltage, current, temperature and fault status.

DEMO MANUAL DC1778B-A
QUICK START PROCEDURE
Demonstration circuit 1778B-A makes it easy to set up
to evaluate the performance of the LTC3883. Refer to
Figure 3 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 output voltage
ripple by touching the probe tip directly across the C11.
See Figure 5 for the proper scope probe technique.
1. Make sure jumpers are in the following positions:
JUMPER
JP1
6. Check for the correct output voltage. VOUT = 1.8V ± 0.5%
(1.791V ~ 1.809V).
NOTE: If there is no output, temporarily disconnect
the load to make sure that the load is not set too high.
7. 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.
8. Connect the dongle and control the output voltages
from the GUI. See LTpowerPlay for LTC3883 Quick
Start Guide for detail.

4. Turn on the power at the input.
5. Turn on the RUN switch as desired.
CONNECTING A PC TO DC1778B-A
You can use a PC to reconfigure the power management
features of the LTC3883, such as: nominal VOUT, margin
set points, OV/UV limits, temperature fault limits, sequencing parameters, the fault log, fault responses, GPIO and
other functionality. The DC1613A dongle may be plugged
in regardless of whether or not VIN is present.
NOTE: Make sure that the input voltage does not exceed 24V.

LTpowerPlay Software GUI
LTpowerPlay is a powerful Windows-based development
environment that supports Linear Technology digital power
ICs with EEPROM, including the LTC3883, LTC2974 and
LTC2978. The software supports a variety of different tasks.
You can use LTpowerPlay to evaluate Linear Technology
ICs by connecting to a demo board system. LTpowerPlay
can also be used in an offline mode (with no hardware
present) in order to build a multichip configuration file that
can be saved and reloaded at a later time. LTpowerPlay
provides unprecedented diagnostic and debug features. It
becomes a valuable diagnostic tool during board bring-up
to program or tweak the power management scheme in
a system, or to diagnose power issues when bringing up
rails. LTpowerPlay utilizes the DC1613A USB-to-SMBus
controller to communicate with one of many potential
targets, including the LTC3880’s DC1590B demo system,
or a customer board. The software also provides an automatic update feature to keep the software current with
the latest set of device drivers and documentation. The
LTpowerPlay software can be downloaded from:
http://linear.com/ltpowerplay
To access technical support documents for LTC Digital
Power Products visit Help. View online help on the
LTpowerPlay menu.

The following procedure describes how to use LTpowerPlay
to monitor and change the settings of the LTC3883.
d.To change the output voltage to a different value, like
1.5V: In the Config tab, type 1.5 in the VOUT_COMMAND
box, like this:
1. Download and install the LTpowerPlay GUI:
http://linear.com/ltpowerplay
2. Launch the LTpowerPlay GUI.
a. The GUI should automatically identify the LTC3883. The
system tree on the left hand side should look like this:
b.A green message box shows for a few seconds in the
lower left hand corner, confirming that the LTC3883 is
communicating:
Then, click the “W” (PC to RAM) icon to write these register
values to the LTC3883. After finishing this step, you will
see the output voltage will change to 1.5V.
If the write is successful, this message appears:
c. In the tool bar, click the “R” (RAM to PC) icon to read
the RAM from the LTC3883. This reads the configuration
from the RAM of LTC3883 and loads it into the GUI.
e. To save the changes into the NVM: In the tool bar, click
the “RAM to NVM” button:
f. Save the demo board configuration to a (*.proj) file by
clicking the Save icon. Name it whatever you want.
