Analog Devices Inc. LT8722 Demo Board DC3145A

Analog Devices Inc. LT8722 Demo Board DC3145A is an evaluation platform for the LT8722 Monolithic Full-Bridge DC-DC Converter. One side of the full-bridge is driven by a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) buck power stage, while the other side of the full-bridge is driven by a linear power stage. The LT8722 can deliver up to ±54W of power to its load while only requiring a single inductor. An integrated 25-bit Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) controls the LT8722 output voltage. The LT8722 features a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) that can set the desired output voltage, output current limits, voltage limits, switching frequency, and control ON/OFF behavior. 

The Analog Devices Inc. LT8722 Demo Board DC3145A features a pre-installed LT8722 in a 3mm x 3mm LQFN-18 package, along with test posts for all key signals. The Demo Board is designed to be used with the Linduino® One DC2026C Demonstration Board. The Linduino One is an Arduino-compatible board that can connect to a Windows-based PC via a USB cable. The Linduino Software can then be used to provide an intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI) that configures and controls the LT8722 using the SPI interface.
