DEMO MANUAL
DC826C-A/DC826C-B
LTC2950-2/LTC2951-2
Pushbutton On/Off Controller
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuits 826C-A and 826C-B feature the
LTC®2950-2 and the LTC2951-2 respectively, which are
low power, wide input voltage range, pushbutton on/off
controllers. A pushbutton switch shorts the PB pin to
ground which in turn sets the EN pin low (see Note 1).
Shorting PB to ground a second time subsequently resets
the EN pin high. The EN pin is used to connect to a DC/
DC converter shutdown to control the turn on and off of
the circuit, simulated with a green LED on the DC826C-A/
DC826C-B.
JP1 and JP2 on the DC826C-A provide the selection
of timing options for the PB on and off times. For the
DC826C-B, JP1 selects KILL times while JP2 selects off
times. JP3 ties and unties KILL to INT for immediate or
delayed turn off. The INT status is shown with a red LED.
DC826C-A/DC826C-B accepts an input voltage range of
2.7V to 26.4V or a 9V battery for portable demonstration
and evaluation.
Note 1: The inversion of EN of the LTC2950-2/LTC2951-2
is found in the LTC2950-1/LTC2951-1. Table 1 provides
an IC selection guide.

*The additional Cap. Adjust time is selected by an external capacitor. The DC826C-A and DC826C-B adjust times have been pre-selected with a 0.033μF
capacitor to provide an additional 212ms. The additional time is calculated with the following equations as shown in the LTC2950/LTC2951 data sheets:
CONT = 1.56e-4 [μF/ms] • (tONT – 1ms)
COFFT = 1.56e-4 [μF/ms] • (tOFFT – 1ms)
CKILLT = 1.56e-4 [μF/ms] • (tKILL, OFF DELAY, ADDITIONAL – 1ms)

QUICK START PROCEDURE
Demonstration circuit 826C-A/826C-B is easy to set up to
evaluate the performance of the LTC2950-2/LTC2951-2:
2.Connect the input power supply of 2.7V to 26.4V across
VIN and GND or a 9V battery to the battery connector.
1.Place jumpers in the following positions:
3.Push and hold the pushbutton once to turn on the green
LED.
JP1:0.033μF
JP2:0.033μF
JP3:UNTIE
4.Push and hold the pushbutton again to turn off the
green LED.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
The duration that PB must be shorted to ground in order
to turn on/off the DC/DC converter is independently programmed (LTC2950-2) by two external capacitors C1 and
C2 and selected on the DC826C-A with jumper JP1 and
JP2. The status of the EN pin, and simulation of the turn
on/off of a DC/DC converter, is displayed with green LED
D2 on the board.
Figure 1 shows how the EN is connected to the SHDN pin
of a DC/DC converter and how INT and KILL interfaces with
a µP or µC. An internal 500ms timer blanks (ignores) the
KILL signal during system power up. This allows sufficient
time for the DC/DC converter and a µP to perform power
up tasks. During turn off, a power down timer provides
a delay (LTC2950-2: 1000ms, LTC2951-2: adjustable)
from interrupting the µP (INT = low) to turning off the DC/
DC converter (EN = high). This delay gives the µP time
to perform power down and housekeeping tasks. On the
DC826C-B, JP1 selects the power down timer, while JP2
is used to adjust the turn off PB duration. The red LED
D1 shows the state of the INT pin. A µP can turn off the
converter with no delay by asserting KILL low. By tying
KILL to INT through JP3, KILL is forced low during the
INT blanking time and thus forces a turn off.
2
The RC (RRPP and CRPP) at VIN on the DC826 provides
reverse polarity protection to the LTC2950-2/LTC2951‑2. If
power is connected in an application such that the polarities are ensured to be in the correct configuration, this RC
may be removed from the circuit.
An additional RC (RF and CF), located at the PB pin, acts
as a filter and is used in an application where the switch
is located far from the LTC2950-2/LTC2951-2. In such a
case, the RC would be placed next to the switch rather
than the part. If the switch is located near the LTC2950-2/
LTC2951-2, then the RC may be removed from the circuit.
An LDO (U2) is used on the DC826 to provide a pull-up
voltage of 2.6V which is well below the absolute maximum
on the INT, EN, and KILL pins for the full range of input
voltage of 2.7V to 26.4V. In an application, pull these
pins up to a voltage no higher than their rated absolute
maximum shown in the data sheet. Optional Zener diodes
(D3 – D5) can be used if the pull-up voltage exceeds the
rated absolute maximum. (If the interface pins on the
DC826C-A /DC826C-B will be pulled up to an external
supply, LEDs D1 and D2 should be removed.)
