DC1540B

DC1540B is a demonstration system for the LTC®2977 8-channel I2C/SMBus/PMBus power system manager with EEPROM. It consists of 2 circuit boards namely the DC1360B and DC1361B. The DC1360B contains all the circuitry needed to insert the LTC2977 into a power system and control eight power supplies. The DC1361B contains eight power supplies (LTM4603EV) which are configured to be controlled by an LTC2977. Together these two boards form a sophisticated, 8-channel, digitally programmable power supply. This demonstration system is supported by LTpowerPlay™ software and a graphical user interface (GUI) that enables complete control of all the LTC2977 features. LTpowerPlay and the DC1540B, create a powerful development environment in which you can design configuration settings for the LTC2977. The configuration settings can be stored in the LTC2977 EEPROM and also in a file, which can be used to order pre-programmed devices.

• I2C/SMBus communication
• Configuration EEPROM, PMBus compliant
