The LTC1911 is a switched capacitor step-down DC/DC converter that produces a 1.5V or 1.8V regulated output from a 2.7V to 5.5V input. The part uses switched capacitor fractional conversion to achieve high efficiency over the entire input range. No inductors are required. Internal circuitry controls the step-down conversion ratio to optimize efficiency as the input voltage and load conditions vary. Typical efficiency is over 25% higher than that of a linear regulator.A unique constant frequency architecture provides a low noise regulated output as well as lower input noise than conventional charge pump regulators. High frequency operation (fOSC = 1.5MHz) simplifies output filtering to further reduce conducted noise. To optimize efficiency,the part enters Burst Mode? operation under light load conditions.Low operating current (180?A with no load, 10?A in shutdown) and low external parts count (two 1?F flying capacitors and two 10?F bypass capacitors) make the LTC1911 ideally suited for space constrained battery powered applications. The part is short-circuit and over temperature protected, and is available in an 8-pin MSOP package.Applications Handheld Computers Cellular Phones Smart Card Readers Portable Electronic Equipment Handheld Medical Instruments Low Power DSP Supplies

Demonstration circuit DC500 is a constant-frequency step-down converter, using the various versions (fixed output/adjustable output/Burst Mode/Burst Mode defeated) of the LTC3406 or LTC3406B monolithic synchronous buck regulators. The DC500 has an input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V, and is capable of delivering up to 600 mA of output current at minimum input voltage of 3V. The DC500A-A features the adjustable output, Burst Mode-capable LTC3406 with the output voltage set to 1.2V.

Demonstration circuit 501 is high power, high voltage, and high efficiency DC/DC buck converter featuring the LTC3703. This is a general-purpose high voltage DC to DC with an input voltage range of 20V to 72V. The board is optimized for positive 48V input operation with high voltage surges up to 72VDC allowed. The limiting factor is the LTC3703 GN16 package that will not meet UL/CSA/IEC60950 clearance and creepage distance requirements above the SELV 60VDC maximum due to pin spacing. If the user wishes to support higher continuous input voltages or compliance to 60950, the LTC3703 is offered in a G-28 pin package. See Data Sheet. However, for the purposes of evaluation, the board will work reliably up to 72V. The maximum continuous current in free air is 4A. 6A is permissible with some forced air cooling. The output voltage is programmed with a voltage divider and configured for 12V.

Demonstration circuit 516A-A is a low output voltage, synchronous boost converter featuring the LTC3423. The LTC3423 is ideal for applications that require an output voltage between 1.5V to 2.6V from a single alkaline or NiCd/NiMH cell. A bias voltage (VDD) of 2.7V to 5.5V is required to power the internal circuitry. The input voltage (VIN) range is 1V to 1.6V, but once up and running, the device can operate with an input voltage as low as 0.5V. The output voltage is set at 1.8V. For a 1V minimum battery voltage, the LTC3423 can provide 350mA.

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.
