DC1307A: 12V @ 4A, 16 ~ 60V in

Summary

Demonstration circuit 1307A features the LTM®8027 configured to deliver 12V from a 16V to 60V input. The wide input range of the LTM8027 allows a variety of input sources such as automotive batteries, wall adaptors and industrial supplies.

The LTM8027 is a step down converter, so a minimum amount of headroom is required to keep the output in regulation. A soft-start feature controls the output voltage slew rate at start-up, reducing current surges and voltage overshoots. The current mode control scheme creates fast transient response and good loop stability.

The LTM8027 data sheet gives a complete description of the part, operation and application information. The data sheet must be read in conjunction with this manual before working on or modifying demo circuit 1307A.
