LT3976

40V, 5A, 2MHz Step-Down Switching Regulator

with 3.3µA Quiescent Current

Demonstrationcircuit1848Ais amonolithicstep-downDC/

DC switching regulator featuring the LT3976. The LT3976

is a compact, high efficiency, high speed monolithic step-

down switching regulator that consumes only 3.3μA of

quiescent current. The demo circuit is designed for 3.3V,

5A output from a 4.3V to 40V input. The switching fre-

quency can be programmed either via oscillator resistor or

external clock up to 2MHz. To synchronize to an external

clock, move JP2 to SYNC and apply the external clock to

the SYNC turret. The RTresistor (R5) should be chosen

to set the LT3976 internal switching frequency at least

20% below the lowest synchronization input frequency.

Low ripple Burst Mode

operation increases the efficiency

at the light load while keeping the output ripple below

15mV. The SYNC pin on the demo board is grounded by

default for low ripple burst mode operation.

The LT3976 is in shutdown when the EN pin is low and

active when the pin is high. The threshold of the EN pin

is accurate at 1.02V with 60mV of hysteresis. Users can

populate R7 and R8 to provide a programmable under

voltage lockout. A low dropout voltage of 500mV is main-

tainedwhen the input voltagedropsbelow the programmed

output voltage. During a short circuit fault, the LT3976

has current limit foldback to limit the power dissipation.

The demo board has an EMI filter installed. The EMI per-

formance of the demo board is shown on Figure 2. The

limit in Figure 2 is EN55022 Class B. The figure shows

the circuit passes the test with a wide margin. To use the

EMI filter, the input should be tied to VEMI, not VIN. VEMI

pad is on the back of the demo board.

The LT3976 data sheet gives a complete description of

the part, operation and application information. The data

sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual

for demo circuit 1848A. The LT3976 is assembled in a

16-lead plastic MSOP and 24-lead 5mm × 3mm QFN

packages with an exposed pad for low thermal resistance.

Proper board layout is essential for both proper operation

and maximum thermal performance. See the data sheet

sections for details.

DEMO MANUAL DC1848A

Quick start proceDure

Demonstration circuit 1848A is easy to set up to evalu-

ate the performance of the LT3976. Refer to Figure 3 for

proper measurement equipment setup and follow the

procedure below:

NOTE: When measuring the input or output voltage ripple,

care must be taken to avoid a long ground lead on the

oscilloscope probe. Measure the input or output voltage

ripple by touching the probe tip directly across the VIN

or VOUT and GND terminals. See Figure 4 for the proper

scope technique.

1. Place JP1 on the ON position.

2. Place JP2 on the RT FREQ position.

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

and GND. Make sure that the input voltage does not

exceed 40V.

4. With power off, connect load from VOUT to GND.

5. Turn on the power at the input.

6. Check for the proper output voltage (3.3V).

NOTE: If there is no output, temporarily disconnect the

load to make sure that the load is not set too high or

is shorted.

7. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust

the load within the operating ranges and observe the

output voltage regulation, ripple voltage, efficiency and

other parameters.

8. An external clock can be added to the SYNC terminal

when SYNC function is used (JP2 on the SYNC posi-

tion). Please make sure that the SYNC frequency is at

least 20% higher than the set switching frequency. See

the data sheet section Synchronization.
