DC2067A - Demo Manual

DEMO MANUAL DC2067A
LT8710
Synchronous Inverting
DC/DC Converter
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 2067A is a synchronous inverting
converter (CUK topology) featuring the LT®8710 switching
controller. It regulates a –5V, 6A output from a 4.5V to 28V
input source, and operates at 300kHz switching frequency.
The LT8710 features simple negative or positive output
voltage programming. The DC2067 programs a –5V output
with a single resistor.
At light load, the LT8710 can operate at forced continuous
conduction mode (CCM) or discontinuous conduction
mode (DCM), set by its MODE pin. The DC2067A selects
DCM, which maintains high efficiency at light load.
The DC2067A can be modified from a CUK converter to
other topology. Synchronous SEPIC and synchronous
BOOST schematics are provided in the data sheet. Please
consult the factory or LT8710 data sheet for details regarding how to customize the DC2067A or how to design
different topologies for custom specifications.
There are some optional components on the DC2067A to
facilitate modifications; see Full Schematic Diagram for
component designation.
2. The optional RC snubber (R4, C1) across the flying
capacitor could help to damp the feedback control loop
for some applications using two separate inductors.
3. The optional input capacitors (CIN5, CIN6) or output
capacitors (CO5, CO6) could be installed to reduce
voltage ripple for some low voltage and/or high current
applications.
4. The optional RC (R24, C19) snubber could be installed to
damp the switch node spike and reduce the EMI noise.
5. The optional current sensing resistor filters (located near
CSP and CSN pins, ISP and ISN pins) might be required
in certain applications with excessive switching noise.
The LT8710 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 2067A.

added to increase power delivery and improve thermal
dissipation.

DEMO MANUAL DC2067A
QUICK START PROCEDURE
Demonstration circuit 2067A is easy to set up to evaluate the performance of the LT8710. 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 28V.
3. Check for the proper output voltages. The output should
be regulated at –5.0V (±3%).
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.
5.The DC2067A is equipped with an output capacitor
CO1 (270µF) that approximates typical system rail
capacitance. If the system board already has capacitance of similar value, CO1 can be removed. The input
capacitor CIN1 is used to help with filtering when the
board is connected to lab power supply with long leads.
The capacitor CIN1 can be removed if the input power
source is close and has low source impedance.
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.
