DEMO MANUAL DC2205A LT8495 SEPIC/Boost Converter with 2A, 70V Switch, 9A Quiescent Current, POR and Watchdog Timer DESCRIPTION Demonstration circuit 2205A is a monolithic SEPIC converter featuring LT(R)8495. The demo board is designed for 5V output from a 3V to 60V input at 450kHz switching frequency. The max output current is 1A when the input voltage is above 12V, and is reduced with lower input voltage. The LT8495 is a monolithic switching regulator with a power-on reset and watchdog timer. Quiescent current can be less than 9A when operating. Dual supply pins (VIN and BIAS) allow the part to automatically operate from the most efficient supply. The switching regulation, watchdog timer and reset detection functions are controlled by the SWEN, WDE and RSTIN respectively. The reset and watchdog timeout periods are independently adjustable using external capacitors C5 and C6. The watchdog timer is enabled by default on the demo board, and it can be disabled by moving the JP1 to GND. PERFORMANCE SUMMARY SYMBOL PARAMETER VIN Input Supply Range Low Ripple Burst Mode(R) operation increases the efficiency at the light load while keeping the output ripple below 10mV. Figure 1 shows the demo board efficiency at 12V input voltage. Figure 2 shows the max load current with different input voltages of the demo board. The LT8495 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 2205A. The LT8495 is assembled in a 20-lead plastic TSSOP package. Proper board layout is essential for maximum thermal and electrical performance. See the data sheet sections for details.

Refer to Figure 3 for proper measurement equipment setup and follow the procedure below. 2. With power off, connect the input power supply to VIN and GND. Make sure that the input voltage does not exceed 60V. 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. 4. Turn on the power at the input. 1. Place JP1 on the RST position to enable the watchdog timer. It can be disabled by placing JP1 on the GND position. 3. With power off, connect loads from VOUT to GND. 5. Check for the proper output voltages (VOUT = 5V). Note. If there is no output, temporarily disconnect the load to make sure that the load is not set too high or is shorted. 6. Once the proper output voltages are established, adjust the load within the operating ranges and observe the output voltage regulation, ripple voltage, efficiency and other parameters. Figure 3.
