DC2040A - LTC3355EUF Demo Board | 12V to 4V/1A Buck Regulator + SCAP Charger & Backup Boost Regulator
Demonstration circuit 2040A is a 12V to 4V/1A regulator with an integrated supercap charger and backup boost regulator featuring the LTC®3355EUF. The LTC3355 charges up a 3F supercapacitor from the output when the 12V input is available. When the 12V input fails, the backup boost regulator supplies the output until the energy in the supercapacitor is depleted. Figure 2 illustrates how long a 3F supercapacitor can provide a 4W output when the input power fails (~600ms).
