Demonstration circuit 533 is an 800kHz adjustable output boost regulator featuring the LT3436. This current-mode control monolithic (switch included) converter has a wide operating supply voltage of 3V to 25V and a minimum peak switch current rating of 3A, though the demo board has a reduced input voltage range of 3.2V to 12V. It provides 12V at 550mA from a 3.3V input and 12V at 900mA from a 5V input.

Demonstration circuit 534 is a fast transient response, very low dropout linear regulator featuring the 4A output current LT3150 linear regulator controller. The DC534 has an input voltage range of 1.1V to 10V and generates a jumper-selectable output voltage of 1.2V, 1.5V or 1.8V. With the LT3150 driving external N-channel MOSFETs as source followers, the DC534 can produce very fast transient response. The proper selection of the Rds(on) of the MOSFETs allows dropout voltages below 300 mV. These capabilities, plus its ability to maintain stable operation with ceramic output capacitors, make the DC534 voltage regulator ideally suited for low VIN-to-VOUT applications, such as microprocessor/microcontroller/FPGA power supplies.

DC536A-B: Demo Board for the LTC4211 Hot Swap Controller with Multifunction Current Control.

Demonstration circuit 536B is a hot swap controller with multifunction current control featuring the LTC4211. The DC536B-A is configured to operate with up to 7A load and DC536B-B up to 20A load.

The DC539B demo board is used to evaluate the LTC5509, RF power detector with integrated output buffer and voltage reference. The LTC5509 converts an RF input signal at pin 6 (RF) to a DC voltage at pin 3 (VOUT). The RF input frequency range is 300 MHz to 3000 MHz. Maximum input power is 8 dBm. The output voltage at VOUT will start at an initial DC value of typically 250mV. When the RF signal is applied the output voltage will increase.

Demonstration circuit 542 is a dual output, dual phase synchronous step-down controller, featuring the LTC3728EG. Output #1 can be configured for either 5.0V or 3.3V and output #2 can be configured for either 3.3V or 2.5V. The maximum load for both rails is 12A. The input voltage range of the DC542 is 8V to 24V. The DC542 also contains a footprint for a 5.5V boost converter bias supply whose output is connected to EXTVCC. See the “Optional Bias Supply” section for more details.

The LTC6910 family are low noise digitally programmable gain amplifiers (PGAs) that are easy to use and occupy very little PC board space. The inverting gain is adjustable using a 3-bit digital input to select gains of 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100V/V in the LTC6910-1; 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64V/V in the LTC6910-2; and 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6 and 7V/V in the LTC6910-3.The LTC6910-Xs are inverting amplifiers with rail-to-rail output. When operated with unity gain, they will also process rail-to-rail input signals. A half-supply reference generated internally at the AGND pin supports single power supply applications. Operating from single or split supplies from 2.7V to 10.5V, the LTC6910-X family is offered in an 8-lead SOT-23 package.Applications Data Acquisition Systems Dynamic Gain Changing Automatic Ranging Circuits Automatic Gain Control

The HMC596LP4(E) is a low-cost 4x2 switch matrix in a leadless QFN 4x4 mm surface mount package for use in Satellite/DBS, LNBs and multiswitches from 200 to 3000 MHz. A positive voltage controlled 4 bit decoder is integrated on the switch. The switches may be used in either 75 ohm or 50 ohm systems.Both switch outputs (OP1 & OP2) can independently select any of the four inputs (HH, HL, VH, VL) or simultaneously select the same inputs. Note that the switch is bi-directional and input/output functionality may be interchanged. All data presented was measured in a 50 ohm (input/output) system.APPLICATIONS DBS LNBs & Multiswitches Cable Modem/CATV Cellular Systems
