 | Kit Overview
The Linear Technology Demonstration Circuit DC1018B-ADC1018B-A showcases the LT4356-1LT4356-1 Surge Stopper in a 12V, 3A application. Input transients of up to 60V are limited to 16V at the output; sustained overvoltage conditions cause the limiter to trip off and retry after the overvoltage is removed.
Demonstration Circuit DC1018B-BDC1018B-B showcases the LT4356-2 Surge Stopper in a 12V, 3A application. Input transients of up to 60V are limited to 16V at the output; sustained overvoltage conditions cause the limiter to trip off and retry after the overvoltage is removed.
Demonstration Circuit DC1018B-CDC1018B-C showcases the LT4356-3LT4356-3 Surge Stopper in a 12V, 3A application. Input transients of up to 60V are limited to 16V at the output; sustained overvoltage conditions cause the limiter to trip off and retry after the overvoltage is removed.
LEDs indicate the presence of +12V input and output, as well as state of the fault output, FLT# and enable output, EN. Input and output connections are made by 93 mil turrents which if removed, accommodate insertion of up to 12 gauge wires for in-situ testing.
The LT4356 surge stopper protects loads from high voltage transients. It regulates the output during an overvoltage event, such as load dump in automobiles, by controlling the gate of an external N-channel MOSFET. The output is limited to a safe value thereby allowing the loads to continue functioning. The LT4356 also monitors the voltage drop between the VCC and SNS pins to protect against overcurrent faults.
