LT1952
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 968A-D is isolated input to high
current output 1/8th Brick footprint converter featur-
ing the LT®1952 switching controller. The DC968-D
converts isolated 36V to 75V input to 28V output and
provides over 4A of output current. The converter op-
erates at 300kHz with efficiency up to 95%. With
proper amount of airflow, the DC968-D converter can
generate up to 5A of output current. The DC968 can
be easily modified to generate output voltages in the
range from 0.6V to 48V. The output currents are lim-
ited by total output power of up to 200W. The other
available versions of DC968A are:
DC968A-A 36-75Vin to 3.3V@30A
DC968A-B 18-36Vin to 5V@20A
DC968A-C 36-75Vin to 12V@12A
Also, the DC968 can be modified for other input volt-
ages like 8V-36V, 18V-75V, 44V-52V, and so on. The
wider input voltage range will decrease the converter
efficiency. Therefore, narrow input voltage range will
be more desirable.
The DC968 circuit features soft-start which prevents
output voltage overshoot on startup or when recover-
ing from overload condition.
The DC968 has precise over-current protection circuit
that allows for continuous operation under short cir-
cuit conditions. The low power dissipation under
short circuit conditions insures high reliability even
during short circuits.
The LT1952 can be synchronized to an external clock
of up to 400kHz. Please refer to LT1952 data sheet for
design details and applications information.
Design files for this circuit board are available. Call
the LTC factory.

QUICK START PROCEDURE
Demonstration circuit 968 is easy to set up to evalu-
ate the performance of LT1952 circuit. Refer to Fig-
ure 1 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 out-
put voltage ripple by touching the probe tip directly
across the Vin or Vout and GND terminals. See Figure
2. for proper scope probe technique.
1.
With power off, connect the input power supply to
Vin and GND. Make sure that the input power sup-

ply has sufficient current rating at minimum input
voltage for the required output load.
2.
Turn on the power at the input.
NOTE:
Make sure that the input voltage does not
exceed 75V.
3.
Check for the proper output voltage.
Vout = 28V, +/-3%.
If there is no output, temporarily disconnect the
load to make sure that the load is not set too high.
4.
Once the proper output voltage is established, ad-
just the load within the operating range and ob-
serve the output voltage regulation, ripple voltage,
efficiency and other parameters.
5.
The DC968 is equipped with an output capacitor
CSYS (330uF) that approximates typical system
rail capacitance. If system board already has ca-
pacitance of similar value CSYS can be removed.

CHANGING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
To set the output voltage lower than 28V, change
the bottom voltage divider resistor connected to
LT4430 FB pin (see the simplified schematic on
page 5). For example, to get 24V output, change
R38 resistor value to 7.15k. However, keep in mind
that changing the transformer as well may increase
the efficiency. The schematic on page 6 shows all of
the components on the PCB. The schematic on
page 6 can be used as a reference if optional cir-
cuits need to be implemented.
To get higher than 28V output voltages transformer
with higher turns ratio may be required. Also, out-
put MOSFETs with higher voltage ratings may be
required. Please contact LTC factory for details.
PRIMARY MOSFET DRIVER LTC4440
The DC968 has an LTC4440 MOSFET driver U2. The
LTC4440 can be disabled if the efficiency is not im-
portant. If U2 is disabled, the DELAY pin of LT1952
should be readjusted to optimize the efficiency.
Please contact LT factory for assistance.
RESET CIRCUIT
The DC968 is equipped with an active reset circuit.
The active reset circuit is used in order to improve
the efficiency by 1% to 2%.
If the efficiency is not important, active reset circuit
can be disabled. In that case, MOSFET Q2 will need
to be replaced with a MOSFET with higher voltage
rating. Please contact LTC factory for help in select-
ing appropriate MOSFET. The active reset circuit
does not always help with the efficiency and is dis-
abled on DC968-A, -B and -C demo boards.

Figure 3. High efficiency of DC968A-D allows the
board to be used in thermally critical applications

OUTPUT LOAD STEP RESPONSE
The load step response of DC968A-D is very fast
even though relatively small amount of output ca-
pacitance is present (6.8uF ceramic and 330uF elec-
trolytic). This is thanks to fast error amplifier of
LT4430, optimal amount of current slope compen-
sation of LT1952, fast opto coupler and fast error
amplifier of LT1952. 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.

Figure 4. Fast transient response of DC968 is su-
perior to many competing power modules without
the additional output capacitors.
SOFT START FUNCTION
The DC968 features LT4430 opto coupler driver that
has soft start function which produces monotonic
startup ramp shown if Figure 5. The rise time of
output voltage is controlled by capacitor C19 that is
connected to OC (overshoot control) pin of LT4430.
Figure 5. The LT4430 opto coupler driver pro-
duces monotonic output voltage rise at startup
without output voltage overshoot.
DEBUGGING AND TESTING
The DC968 can easily be tested and debugged by
powering the bias circuit with a separate power
source. To place DC968 into debug mode remove
the resistor R1 and connect 48V, 100mA power
source to +Vb node (right side of R1). By doing
this, the primary PWM controller LT1952 can be
activated without the main primary power being
applied to +Vin.
To activate the secondary side MOSFET driver
(LTC3900) connect a 10V, 100mA power source to
collector of Q9 via 1A, 40V diode. That way the cur-
rent coming from DC968 bias supply will not be
able to flow back to 10V supply once the converter
is running.
Once the primary and secondary controllers are
running the MOSFET gate timing can be checked.
If the MOSFET gate timing is correct the main
power input can be applied to +Vin. The correct de-
lay from turn on of FG and gate of Q1 is usually in
the range from -100ns to +100ns. By slowly in-
creasing the +Vin from 0V to 48V the output voltage
and input current can be monitored. The input cur-
rent should not exceed 100mA without the output
load. If one of the MOSFETs is damaged, the input
current will exceed 100mA.
