DEMO MANUAL DC2346A LT8601 42V Triple Monolithic Synchronous Step-Down Regulator Description Demonstration circuit 2346A is a triple power supply featuring the LT®8601. LT8601 is a 42V triple monolithic synchronous step-down regulator. The demo circuit is designed for 5V, 3.3V, and 1.8V outputs from a nominal 12V input, with switching frequency set at 2MHz to avoid audio band. The 1.8V converter is powered from the 3.3V output, and the 5V, 3.3V are powered from a wide range of 6V to 24V, transient to 42V. The current capability is 2.5A for the 3.3V output, 1.5A for the 5V output, and 1.8A for the 1.8V output when running individually. Up to 1A load current can be applied to all the channels simultaneously without special cooling. efficiency and external component size. Each output can be independently disabled using its own TRKSS or RUN pin and be placed in a low quiescent current shutdown mode. Table 1 summarizes the performance of the demo board at room temperature. The circuit can be easily modified for different applications. Figure 4 shows the typical thermal performance of the circuit. Individual soft-start, current limit, input voltage, power good for each output simplify the complex design of quadoutput power converters. All regulators are synchronized to a common external clock input or a resistor programmable 250kHz to 2.2MHz internal oscillator. At all frequencies, a 180° phase shift is maintained between 1 and 2 channels, reducing the input peak current and voltage ripple. Programmable frequency allows optimization between The LT8601 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 2346A. Performance Summary The demo board has an EMI filter installed on the bottom layer. The radiated EMI performance of the board is shown on Figure 3. The limit in Figure 3 is CISPR Class 5, Peak. It shows the circuit passes the CISPR Class 5, Peak test with a wide margin.

Refer to Figure 1 for proper equipment setup and follow the procedure below. 1.With power off, connect the input power supply to the board through VIN and GND terminals on the top layer. Connect the loads to the terminals VOUT1 and GND, VOUT2 and GND, VOUT3 and GND on the board. The default positions of the headers are given in Table 2. Table 2. Default Positions of the Headers NAME POSITION EN/UVLO JP1 ON TRKSS1 JP4 ON TRKSS2 JP5 ON RUN3 JP2 RUN SYNC JP7 BURST 2.Turn on the power at the input. Increase VIN to 12V. NOTE: Make sure that the input voltage is always within spec. Refer to data sheet on the Burst Mode® operation in light load and high VIN condition. 3. Check for the proper output voltages. The output should be regulated at 5V (±4%), 3.3V (±4%), 1.8V (±4%). 4.Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust the input voltage and load currents within the operating range, and observe the output voltage regulation, transient, ripple voltage, efficiency and other parameters. NOTE: Refer to the thermal derating curves in LT8601 data sheet for high input voltage and/or high ambient temperature operations. NOTE: By default, SYNC is grounded, and the circuit is set in low ripple Burst Mode operation. The circuit can be set in pulse-skipping Mode, and it runs in full frequency with lower load current. Refer to the data sheet for details on the input voltage and load current ranges that the circuit runs in full frequency. To synchronize to an external clock, apply the external clock to the SYNC turret. 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 or VOUT capacitor terminals. See Figure 2 for proper scope probe technique. NOTE: Do not overload unless proper thermal cooling method such as air flow or heat sink is applied. NOTE: If there is no output, temporarily disconnect the load to make sure that the load is not set too high, and the headers of EN/UVLO, TRKSS1, TRKSS2, and RUN3 are set in right positions. dc2346af 2 DEMO MANUAL DC2346A Quick Start Procedure Figure 1.
