Description

LTC3128

High Efficiency 2-Cell Supercapacitor

Charger and Balancer Converter

Demonstration circuit 1887 is a DC/DC supercapacitor

buck-boost charger and balancer converter featuring the

LT C

3128.TheDC1887Aoperatesover1.72Vto5.5Vinput

and charges the output up to 5.5V. Also, the LTC3128 has

2% precision input current limit, which allows the circuitto

operateeffectivelywithcurrentlimitedinputpowersources

like the USB. The 1.2MHz switching frequency operation

results in a small and efficient circuit. The converter pro-

vides high output voltage accuracy (typically ±2%) over

a1.72V to 5.5V input. The demonstration circuit can be

easily modified to generate different output voltages.

DEMO MANUAL DC1887A

Quick start proceDure

Demonstration circuit 1887 is easy to set up to evaluate

the performance of the LTC3128. For proper measure-

ment equipment setup refer to Figure 1 and follow the

procedure below:

NOTE: When measuring the input or output voltage

ripple, care must be taken to minimize the length of

oscilloscope probe ground lead. Measure the input

or output voltage ripple by connecting the probe tip

directly across the VIN or VOUT and GND terminals as

shown in Figure 2.

NOTE: Make sure that the input voltage VIN does not

exceed 5.5V.

4. Set the input voltage to 3.3V and check for the proper

output voltage of 4.2V. If there is no output, temporarily

disconnect the load to make sure that the load is not

set too high.

5. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust the

load and observe the output voltage regulation, ripple

voltage, efficiency and other parameters.

6. Note that the output voltage VOUT will vary with load.

This is due to the current source nature of the LTC3128

power converter. As the output voltage increases the

output current will decrease in order to maintain the

input current below the preset limit.

The LTC3128 circuit maximizes the output current while

keeping the input current within the preset current limit.

Thiskeepsthesupercapacitorchargingtime to a minimum.

CHANGING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE

To change the output voltage from the programmed 4.2V,

change the voltage divider resistors connected to the

LTC3128 FB pin (see the schematic on page 5).

1. With power off, connect the input power supply to VIN

and GND.

2. Keep the load set to 0A or disconnected.

3. Turn the input power source on and slowly increase the

input voltage. Be careful not to exceed 5.5V.

Figure 3. The Output Current Decreases as the Supercap Voltage

Increases Due to Precise Input Current Limit.

Figure 4. The Supercap Supplies Most of the Pulsed Load Current.

The LTC3128 Makes a Small Contribution to Load Current as

Shown in Figure 3.

Figure 5. The DC1887 Ramps the Output Slowly at Start-Up

without Generating an Input Current Surge.

CONVERTER OUTPUT CURRENT

The DC1887 output current capability depends on the

input voltage and programmed input current limit. Typical

performance of the DC1887A is shown in Figure 3. As can

be seen from Figure 3, the output current decreases as

the output voltage is approaching the programmed output

voltage of 4.2V.

OUTPUT LOAD STEP RESPONSE

The load step response of DC1887A is dependent on the

supercap used. If higher load steps need to be handled

more output capacitance can be added in order to keep

the voltage transients at the desired level. The load step

transients are shown in Figure 4.

START-UP AND CURRENT LIMIT FUNCTION

The DC1887 features an input current limit circuit that

controls the inrush current and output voltage ramp at

start-up and during recharge cycles. The input current

limit of DC1887 is set to 900mA and it should be suitable

for operation from a USB port. The input current limit can

be seen in Figure 5. While charging the supercap, the cur-

rent is constant. Once the output voltage is close to the

set point the current limit is reduced in order to prevent

output voltage overshoot.

The input current limit can be programmed up to 3A by

changing the resistor R8 in the Schematic Diagram.

OUTPUT VOLTAGE BALANCING

TheLTC3128 can chargetwo output capacitors inseries that

are not identical. The internal capacitor voltage balancing

circuit can compensate for the difference in capacitance by

moving the charge from the capacitor at a higher voltage

(smallercap)toacapacitor withalower voltage(biggercap).

To see this effect, monitor VMID (VC3) and VOUT with a

scope as shown in Figure 5. The trace 1 in Figure 5 is

showing the top cap voltage (VC3 = VOUT – VMID).
