LTC3118EUFD
18V, 2A Buck-Boost DC/DC Converter
with Low-Loss Dual Power Path
Demonstration Circuit 2045A featuring the LTC3118 is a
dual input fixed frequency synchronous buck-boost con-

The unique all N-Channel architecture provides efficient
operation from either input source to a programmable
output voltage above, below or equal to the input. Volt

margin for a variety of applications and power sources.
The LTC3118 uses a low noise, current mode architecture
with a fixed 1.2MHz PWM mode frequency that minimizes
the solution footprint. For high efficiency at light loads,
automatic Burst Mode™ operation can be selected con
suming only 50μA of quiescent current in sleep.
Typical efficiencies for both Burst Mode and fixed frequency
are shown in Figure 1. JP2 in the FIXED FREQ position
results in low output ripple but also lower efficiency at
light loads. Moving the JP2 position to AUTOBURST
enables Burst Mode operation which improves efficiency
at light load.

2. With power OFF connect the power supplies (PS1,
PS2) as shown in Figure 6. If accurate current mea
surements are desired (for efficiency calculations for
example) then connect the ammeters in series with
the supplies as shown. The ammeters however, are
not required.

7. Turn off PS1 and repeat steps 3 to 6 with PS2. The part
will turn on with PS2 at approximately 4.5V. Once on,
PS2 can be varied between 3.8V and 18V. The voltage
measurements of step 5 will change where V1GD will
be at V
and V2GD will be pulled low. Set the load to
CC
50Ω.
8. Set PS2 to 7V and turn on PS1 slowly increasing the
voltage from 0V to 8V. Note that PS1 starts to supply
the power as the voltage of PS1 exceeds the voltage
on PS2 by at least
9.
Now decrease the voltage on PS1 and observe that
when the voltage on V

falls below the voltage on
PS2, PS1 stops supplying the power and PS2 takes
over. See Figure 2 for typical performance for steps
8 and 9.
10. Turn off PS1 and PS2. Change the SELECT jumper
(JP1) to V
(the PRIORITY position). Turn on PS2
CC
and adjust it to 14V.
11. By cycling the voltage on PS1 from 1V to 10V you can
observe the transition of power from PS2 to PS1 and
back as the voltage on V
goes through its startup
IN1
(approximately 2.9V) and shutdown (approximately
2.5V) thresholds. Typical response is shown in Figure 3.
Turn off PS1 and PS2.
Steps 12 and 13 are optional for looking at load step
response if desired.
4. Turn on the Power Supply, PS1, and slowly increase
the voltage. The converter will start at approximately
2.9V.
5. Verify V
