DC1878A - Demo Manual

DEMO MANUAL DC1878A
LTC3789EGN
8V to 75VIN Buck/Boost
DC/DC Converter
Description
Demonstration circuit 1878A features the LTC3789EGN,
a high efficiency switching step-up/down controller. The
input range has been extended to 75V by using a LTC44445 MOSFET driver on the input side. The minimum input
voltage is 8V. The output voltage is 12V. The board is
capable of delivering up to 5A of output current over the
input voltage range.
The LTC3789EGN is a high performance switching regulator controller designed to regulate the output using input
voltages above, below or equal to the output voltage.
Synchronous operation provides very high efficiency, up
to 97%. Constant frequency current mode architecture
allows phase-lockable frequency from 200kHz to 600kHz.
Performance Summary
PARAMETER
An accurate output current limit provides support for battery charging. A wide input and output range with smooth
transfer function through all operating modes makes the
product ideal for automotive, telecom and battery systems.
The MODE/PLLIN pin can select between pulse-skipping
mode and forced continuous mode operation and allows
the IC to be synchronized to an external clock. A power
good output pin indicates when the output is within 7.5%
of its set point.

DEMO MANUAL DC1878A
Quick Start Procedure
Demonstration circuit 1878A is easy to set up to evaluate the performance of the LTC3789EGN. Please refer to
Figure 1 for proper measurement equipment setup and
follow the procedure below.
1.With power off, connect the input supply, load and
meters as shown in Figure 1. Preset the load to 0A and
VIN supply to 0V.
2.Set the current limit of the input supply high enough
so that the bench supply does not go into current limit
mode. Figure 2 shows input current as a function of
input voltage, at full load. Input current can reach 8A
at 8V input voltage.
3.Place jumper in the following position:
JP1
RUN
ON
4. Turn on the power at the input. Increase VIN to between
8V and 75V. The circuit will start and the output voltage
will regulate at 12V ±2%. The current draw at no load is
typically 18mA to 37mA depending on the input voltage.
Auxiliary Supply
The demo board DC1878A has a LTC3803 based flyback
converter to provide 8V/50mA bias voltage for LTC3789
and LTC4444-5. The snubber for the flyback primary winding provides a voltage that is above the input voltage. A
transistor Q9 is used to provide a small current source
to the top gate driver of LTC4444-5 so that 100% duty
cycle is possible.
If this current source is not used, for example if the flyback
auxiliary supply is replaced by an external 6V to 12V supply,
it is necessary to connect BOOST1 to 3.0V (add 3V Zener
diode D11, R11 = 1k, remove R16) and use a level shift
circuit (add D3 = BAS16, R12 = 1k, remove R6) between
TG1 and TINP (due to the 3.25V maximum threshold for
TINP). By setting BOOST1 to 3.0V, the LTC3789 will issue
narrow refresh pulses on BG1 which keeps the top gate
driver powered also in BOOST mode.
In addition, DC1878A demo board has layout for an optional
bias supply intended for a future monolithic high voltage
buck regulator. Additional information will be provided
when this part is released.
5. Apply load and observe output voltage regulation, ripple
voltage, efficiency and other parameters. Efficiency and
power loss at full load is shown in Figure 3. Continuous
operation with full power and high input voltage may
require some airflow.
