DESCRIPTION
Programmable Hex
Voltage Supervisor Featuring
the LTC2936 with EEPROM
The DC1605B is a demonstration system that showcases
the LT C
®
2936,a6-channel I2C/SMBus voltage supervisor
with EEPROM. The LTC2936 simultaneously monitors up
to six power supply voltages and detects undervoltage and
overvoltage conditions. In addition the LTC2936 monitors
two GPI pins and is able to drive three GPIO pins to indicate
OV, UV, system reset, system alert, or other control signal.
The DC1605B is a single circuit board that contains the
LTC2936andsupportcircuitry to provide the ability to dem-
onstrate features and capabilities of the LTC2936 without
the need for external power supplies. The DC1605B demo
boardprovidesanaccuratevoltagesupervisionofsixchan-
nels and offers over/undervoltage thresholds in various
ranges and increments that are digitally programmable.
This demonstration system is supported by the
LTpowerPlay™ graphical user interface (GUI) which en-
ables complete control of all the features of the device.
Together, the LTpowerPlay software and DC1605B hard-
ware system create a powerful development environment
for designing and testing configuration settings of the
LTC2936. These settings can be stored in the device’s
internal EEPROM or in a file. This file can later be used
to order pre-programmed devices or to program devices
in a production environment. The software displays all of
the configuration settings and real time measurements
from the system supervisor and peripheral ICs. Telemetry
allows easy access and decoding of the fault log created
by the LTC2936. The board comes pre-programmed with
the EEPROM values appropriate for the six power supply
rails on the DC1605B. Just plug and play!
The LTC2936 chip is mounted on the topside of the board
with support ADC and DAC circuitry on the back.
The ADC provides voltage readings for all six voltage
supervisor inputs on the LTC2936 and also reads the GPI
and GPIO voltages. The DAC drives six programmable
voltages that are used to emulate the user’s system rails.
The extra support circuitry allows the user to evaluate L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks and

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LTC2936 is a hex voltage supervisor which detects
an overvoltage or undervoltage and signals the system of
a fault condition. The chip has a dedicated power supply
pin, VPWR, and has an internal 3.3V regulator. The chip
may be powered either by powering VPWR with the on-
board 5V supply, with an external 3.4V to 13.9V supply,
or with an external 3.3V supply by tying VPWR and VDD33
pins together.
THE CHIP
The LTC2936 integrates six voltage supervisors with as-
sociated comparator outputs, two GPIs, and three GPIOs.
The V1-V6 supervisors are comprised of OV/UV window
comparators that can be programmed to map the detec-
tion of a fault to one or more GPIO pin.
In LTpowerPlay, the user programs each voltage supervi-
sor’s range, polarity, mapping, and high and low threshold
voltages.
Each channel’s high/low comparators may be mapped
to any GPIO pin, and any comparator may be mapped to
multiple GPIO pins. Typically the high comparator is used
for the overvoltage condition and the low comparator is
usedfor the undervoltage condition.Thehigh comparator is
notdedicatedas the OV detection nor is the
lowcomparator
dedicated forUVdetection. For example, both comparators
maybe configuredasOV with theVn_THR_HIsetto indicate
an OV Fault and the Vn_THR_LO set for an OV Warning.

The GPI input pins can be used to override fault conditions
by configuring them as MARG or UVDIS. The active-low
MARG function allows the LTC2936 to ignore OV and UV
conditions. The active-low UVDIS function is a special
case of the MARG function. It allows the device to ignore
UV conditions.
voltages for a total of eleven. Although the ADC updates
at a relatively slow rate, it provides the equivalent of
eleven 4½-digit digital multimeters. Think of the ADC as
a collection of independent voltage readings, whereas the
LTC2936 simply makes a comparison to each of the Vn
inputvoltages. The simplestdemonstrationof the DC1605B
is to power and control the board via the DC1613 USB
controller. The controller provides 5V supply and I2C/
SMBus read/write control. This setup provides an easy
quick way to demonstrate the LTC2936’s capabilities.

voltages.
SELECTING A DEVICE ADDRESS
The DC1605B has jumpers (JP7, JP8) labeled ASEL0 and
ASEL1 which allow the user to select one of nine I2C ad-
dresses. See Table 3.

Regardless of the jumper setting, the part will always
respond to the I2C global 7-bit addresses 0x0C and 0x73.
STATUS_WORD REGISTER
The STATUS_WORD register is a read-only register that
provides a summary of fault status on all six HI and LO
comparatoroutputs, and are determinedbythecomparator
threshold/configuration settings and Vnvoltages. Faults
may be disabled by setting GPI pins to MARG or UVDIS.
RESTORING RAM AND GUI FROM LTC2936
To restorethe operating memory (RAM)from the LTC2936
EEPROM contents, click the “R” NVM-to-RAM icon in the
toolbar. To read the RAM registers into the GUI, click the
“R” RAM-to-PC icon in the toolbar.
DC1605B LEDs
TheDC1605Bboard has two green LEDs. When USB power
(DC1613 Controller) or external power (6V to 14V jack) is
applied, the +5V green LED will illuminate. The +5V supply
provides power to the support circuitry, not necessarily to
the LTC2936. Jumper JP9 determines how the LTC2936
Themultichannel DAC emulates a6-channel programmable
power supply that is used to place “rail” voltages at levels
that replicate the user’s system rails. This avoids the need
for the user to wire actual supply rails to the demo board,
however the board was designed to allow this use case.
The DAC output range is 0V to 4V. This is sufficient for
demo purposes. Simply place the V1-V6 jumpers to “INT”
for internal DAC use, and ensure the LTC2936 is powered
by setting JP9 appropriately.
POWERING THE BOARD
The DC1605B board can be powered from the DC1613
USB’s 5V power or from a wall-powered 12V supply
(jack). The LTC2936 hex supervisor can be powered in a
number of different ways. The chip itself is powered from
the on-board 5V supply or an external supply. There is a
table silk-screened onto the board as a reminder. If the
USB power or jack power is present, the +5V LED will
illuminate. The LTC2936 can then be powered by setting
the jumper to “INT .” Alternatively set the jumper to “EXT”
to connect an external power supply voltage to the VPWR
turret. With JP9 set to “EXT,” apply an external 3.3V sup-
ply. If the jumper is removed, apply an external voltage in
the range 3.4V to 13.9V. The board comes pre-configured
with jumpers JP1-JP6 set to the INTERNAL position which
allows the on-board 5V LDO regulator to power all circuits.
NOTE: Turrets V1-V6 are tied directly to the LTC2936
independent of the jumper settings.
The DC1605B uses a multiplexed ADC that is used to
provide voltage readback values. The telemetry plot in
the GUI is similar to a multichannel oscilloscope which is
capable of displaying any parameter that is displayed in
the telemetry window. Due to the nature of a multiplexed
ADC converter, it has an associated ADC loop time. The
total ADC loop time is ~400ms for a given channel. You

THEORY OF OPERATION
is powered. The default setting of jumper JP9 is set to
internal 5V and the 3.3VOUT LED will illuminate, indicating
the LTC2936 is powered. If this LED is not illuminated,
the LTC2936 is not in a functioning state, the I2C bus will
not communicate with the GUI, and the LTC2936 will be
grayed out in the system tree.
DC1605B ToolWindow and GUI Indicators
The ToolWindow displays the ADC readings on the left and
DAC voltage settings on the right. The blue/red indicators
next to the GPIs and GPIOs display the state (H vs. L) and
voltage reading from the ADC (LT2499). Blue indicates a
logic high and red indicates a logic low. The ToolWindow
is automatically populated when LTpowerPlay detects the
DC1605B demo board when it starts. Note that when you
save aproject, the DAC settings are saved in the project file.

LTpowerPlay GUI SOFTWARE
LTpowerPlay is a powerful Windows-based development
environment that supports Linear Technology power
system management ICs with EEPROM, including the
LTC2936 6-channel voltage supervisor. The software
supports a variety of different tasks. You can use LTpow-
erPlay to evaluate Linear Technology ICs by connecting
to a demo board system. LTpowerPlay can also be used
in an offline mode (with no hardware present) in order to
build a multi-chip configuration file that can be saved and
re-loaded at a later time. LTpowerPlay provides unprec-
edented system level diagnostic and debug features. It
becomes a valuable diagnostic tool during board bring-up
to program or tweak the power management scheme in
a system or to diagnose power issues when bringing up
rails. LTpowerPlay utilizes the DC1613 I2C/SMBus/PMBus
controller to communicate with one of many potential tar-
gets, including the DC1605B demo system or a customer
board. The software also provides an automatic update
feature to keep the software current with the latest set
of device drivers and documentation. The LTpowerPlay
software can be downloaded from:

DEMO BOARD USE CASES
USE CASE #1
A common configuration for the LTC2936 dedicates the
V1 pin to the highest supply in the system and uses V2-V6
to monitor other voltages. The V1 pin provides power to
the chip and also is used to detect an OV or UV on the V1
pin. For simplicity, the USB controller (DC1613) powers
the board and the LTC2936 is powered via the V1 pin with
the jumper set to INT 5V.
Each of the high comparator fault outputs is mapped to
GPIO1, indicating an active-low OV fault. Each of the low
comparator fault outputs are mapped to GPIO3, indicating
an active-low UV fault. These OV and UV conditions are
indicated in multiple places—LEDs next to the GPIO tur-
rets and also in the GUI. The GPIO2 pin has been mapped
as an active-low latched OV indicator. The latched ALERT
is cleared by pressing the GPI1 pushbutton. The GPIO
pins have a red-blue LED which is red when low and blue
when high.
The two GPI inputs are used to detect a manual reset
(MR) and margin disable (MARG) and activated when the
pushbutton switches are depressed.
GPIO1 →OV fault
GPIO2 →ALERT (latched)
GPIO3 →UV fault
GPI1 →MR (manual reset)
GPI2 →MARG (ignore OV/UV when margining)
Let’s margin V5 and V6 low by typing a value of 1V and
0.9V into the respective DAC control boxes. You may also
move the DAC output by clicking the up/down arrows on
the individual DAC box or by double-clicking the DAC value
and entering a new value in the box. V5 and V6 will report
a UV, turning the LED on GPIO3 red. The dashboard in the
GUI indicates the V5 and V6 voltages are below the LO
thresholds of 0.95V and 1.1V. Also notice in the Telemetry
windowaSTATUS_WORD register, expand it. This register
is a live indicator of LO or HI fault conditions. Note the state
of LO_FAULT bits when the margin low button is selected.
We can demonstrate the effect of the GPI2 pushbutton at
this point. The GPI2 pin has been programmed to function
as MARG, enabling the LTC2936 to ignore all UV condi-
tions.Notice that when the pushbutton is depressed, GPIO3
returns high (blue). This is useful when the system does
not want to be informed of a UV condition during margin
low testing. Moving the DAC voltages back to 1.2V and
1V returns GPIO3 to a high state (blue), indicating there
is no UV condition.

12
dc1605bf
DEMO MANUAL DC1605B
DEMO BOARD USE CASES
Let’s margin V5 and V6 high by typing a value of 1.4V and
1.1V into the respective DAC control boxes. V5 and V6
will report an OV in the GUI and on the demo board. Both
GPIO1 and GPIO2 LEDs will turn red and the dashboard
indicates an OV condition and a latched ALERT. Note the
state of HI_FAULT bits in the STATUS_WORD register.
When the GPI2 button is pushed, the GPIO1 (OV) LED is
returnedto blue andtheSTATUS_WORD reflectsthe MARG
pin as well, clearing the HI_FAULT bits. We can now change
the DACs back to 1.2V and 1.0V. The OV condition is no
longer present, however ALERT (GPIO2) remains latched
low. Since the GPI1 pin is defined as a Manual Reset,
pressing this button clears the latched ALERT, turning
GPIO2 LED blue which indicates a de-asserted high state. Apply an external supply voltage to the turret. A sensor
or other moderate source impedance voltage may be
supervised on the Vninputs. A battery voltage may be
supervised since the LTC2936 supply current is < 700µA.
For example, a +5V external supply may be connected to
turret V1. Notice the
GPIO1 and GPIO2 LEDs turn red, indi-
cating OV and ALERT are asserted low. The V2 thresholds
need to be changed. Enter 5.5V and 4.5V for the HI and LO
threshold settings. The GPIO1 will return high and the LED
will change to blue but the GPIO2 remains low (red) since
it indicates a latched ALERT. Press the MR pushbutton on
GPI1 to release GPIO2 back high (LED blue).
USE CASE #2
The DC1605B demo board can be configured to supervise
external supply voltages. Inputs V1-V6 may be used for
this purpose. Simply move the jumper from INT to EXT
which disconnects the backside DAC, allowing an external
voltage to be applied to the LTC2936. Please ensure the
maximum ratings on the turrets are not exceeded, most
of which are 6V.
The GPI inputs may also be used to monitor external
voltages. These pins can be configured as an auxiliary
comparator (AUXC). In this mode, the GPI pin voltage is
comparedto an internal0.5Vreference.Typicallyanexternal
voltage divider is provided to obtain the appropriate trip
point for the external voltage. The GPI comparators can
be mapped to one of the GPIOs to alert the system of an
overvoltage or undervoltage condition.

DEMO BOARD USE CASES
USE CASE #3
Another common configuration is one that uses a GPIO
pin to drive a system reset. The LTC2936 data sheet shows
this feature throughout. The other two GPIOs are config-
ured as previously shown, OV and ALERT. Additionally a
manual reset pushbutton (GPI1) asserts the system reset.
GPIO1 →RST (system reset)
GPIO2 →OV
GPIO3 →ALERT

1. To program GPIO1 to system reset function, first
uncheck the hi_comp mapping of all V1-V6 channels
to GPIO1.
2. Configure GPI1 as a Manual Reset. Map GPI1 to GPIO1.
3. Configure GPIO1 as active-low with weak pull-up. To
update the changes made in steps 1-3, click the Write
All Registers (PC →RAM) icon.
4. You can optionally extend the low time of the system
reset by changing the delay-on-release setting to ensure
a clean release of reset. This provides a time-based
debounce of the switch.
Whenconfigured inthis way, GPIO1provides asystem reset
for the host processor and GPI1 can drive a system reset
(GPIO1) with a push of a button. You may set the GPIO1
delay-on-releasetime to 410 ms to experience the extended
reset firsthand. The UV condition indicator remains on
GPIO3. The OV condition is indicated as a latched ALERT
on GPIO2. When GPI1 pushbutton is pressed, a system
reset is asserted on GPIO1 and the ALERT is released if
the OV condition is removed.
