DC1964A

DEMO MANUAL DC1964A LTC3110 2A, Bidirectional Buck-Boost DC/DC Regulator and Charger/Balancer Description Demonstration circuit 1964A is a 2A, bidirectional buckboost DC/DC regulator and charger/balancer, featuring the LTC®3110 boost controller. Its wide voltage range both in capacitor/battery charger mode and in system backup mode makes it well suited to a wide variety of applications using supercapacitors and batteries. The main features of this board include a wide capacitor voltage range from 0.1V to 5.5V, when the controller works as a backup, buck-boost converter. The input voltage range is also wide, 1.8V to 5.25V, when the controller works as a charger. LTC3110 also features automatic switching from charge to backup mode, programmable ±2% accurate charge current, automatic capacitor balancing, Burst Mode® operation, multipurpose comparator, and open-collector outputs to indicate direction of operation and end of charge. The 1.2MHz constant-frequency operation results in a small and efficient circuit. In backup mode LTC3110 provides high output voltage accuracy over a wide load range with no minimum load requirement. DC1964A features two modes of operation: automatic and external direction control. In the automatic mode of operation, DC1964 automatically charges the supercapacitor when a system voltage is present and works as a DC/DC converter providing system backup power to the load when system power is removed. In the external direction mode, users have control over charging and discharging the supercapacitor by changing logic on the EXT/DIR terminal. The DC1964A supports three levels of input current limits—0.5A, 1A, 2A—while charging the supercapacitor. The DC1964A has a small circuit footprint. It is a high performance and cost effective solution for supercap, battery backup converters and chargers, servers, RAID and RF systems. DC1964 supports surface-mount supercapacitors as installed C3 and also through-hole packages as optional C5, C8.

Refer to Figure 1 for proper measurement equipment setup and follow the procedure below. 5V power supply should be rated minimum 2A of output current. 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 2 for proper scope probe technique. 5. Turn the input power source on and slowly increase the input voltage to 4.0V. Set the load to 0.2A. You have to see voltage around 3.6V (diode forward voltage drop lower compared to VEXT) on the VSYS terminal. 6. Place jumper RUN (JP2) in the ON position. Voltage on VCAP terminal should rise above 4.8V. If there is no output, temporarily disconnect the load to make sure that the load is not set too high. To verify the ability of DC1964 to work in backup mode, proceed with the following: 1. Place jumper MODE (JP4) to FIXED FREQ. position. 7. Disconnect input power from VEXT (E2) terminal, because SW1 in AUTO position, supercapacitor C3 starts discharging, however LTC3110 will maintain a voltage of 3.3V on terminal VSYS (E2). 2. Place jumper FBCAP (JP5) to 5.0V position. Place jumper PROG (JP3) to 0.5A position. Place switch DIR (SW1) to AUTO position for automatic switch between charge or backup modes of operation. 8. Repeat steps 1 to 7 for different charging currents and VSYS voltages. While discharging, increase load current to 2.0A to verify high current capability and good load regulation of LTC3110 controller. 3. Place jumper FB (JP1) into 3.2V to set 3.2V voltage on the load, when supercapacitor C3 discharges in backup mode. 9. You can measure voltage regulation and ripple in backup mode on VSYS (E2) terminals. To verify the capability of DC1964A for charging supercapacitors, proceed with the following steps: 4. With power off, connect the input power supply to VEXT, GND load to VSYS, GND as shown on Figure 1. 10.Make sure that input voltage on VEXT and VSYS terminals does not exceed 5.5V. Figure 1.
