DESCRIPTION
18-CELL STIMULUS BOARD
Demonstration circuit 2472A is a USB-powered resistor-
string, voltage ladder with variable output. The DC2472A
provides a simple battery stack simulator for connection
directly to most of Linear Technology’s LTC68xx “battery
stack monitor” demo boards.
Using the 5V from a USB charger, the DC2472 generates
an isolated high voltage from ~25V to ~75V, applied to
a resistor string generating 18 voltages taps. These taps
provide a simulation of a string of series connected bat-
tery cells, each tap pair providing nominally the same
virtual cell voltage. The input voltage to the resistor string
is adjustable by an on-board potentiometer to furnish a
divided output voltage in a range of about 1.5V-4.2V per
cell to demonstrate operation at conditions comparable
to a wide range of cell chemistries.
CONNECTION TO AN LTC68XX DEMO-BOARD
1. The back side of the DC2472A shows where the
LTC68xx demo board connectors should be attached.
Simply line up the finger contacts with the associated
screw terminal connector according to whether the
connector is a 16- or 19-contact model. The screws
for securing the connections should be facing the com-
ponent side of the DC2472A. Torque the 16- or 19-posi-
tion connections to 0.2-0.25Nm. A 22-contact adapter L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks of Analog
Devices, Inc. All other trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
(e.g. DC2701A) should be torqued to 0.22-0.25Nm.
See Figure 1 for example installations.
2. In the case of a 15-cell demo (e.g. for LTC6812), the
pinout requires every sixth tap pair to be shorted over.
To accomplish this, place JP19, JP20, and JP21 to the
“15” position. In all other usages, leave those jumpers
in the ‘18’position. Note that cell voltages will increase
20% with placement of jumpers in the “15” position
due to the reduced division factor.
3. A USB to USB MICRO-B cable (like non-Apple cell
phone charger) provides a simple means of powering
the DC2472A from a 1A USB charger (some computer
ports may not provide adequate current for stable
output levels). Alternatively, a 5V bench power supply
can be connected to the power input turrets (+5V &
+5V COM) with clip-leads. Note that the +5V connec-
tions are isolated with respect to the GND turret of the
DC2472A, so the +5V COM and GND cannot be used
interchangeably.

TIALS UP TO 80V

QUICK START PROCEDURE
1. Power up the DC2472A from the USB cable or bench
supply.
2. Once powered, the Blue LED1 should illuminate.
3. Adjust potentiometer to provide a desired equivalent
cell voltage as shown in Figure 2. Note that there will
be some variation in voltages amongst “cells” due to
component tolerances.
4. Operate the LTC68xx demo as applicable. Note that
resistor-string battery simulations (and DC2472A in
particular) cannot generally generate currents suitable
for properly demonstrating cell-balancing activity.
5. Jumpers JP0 through JP18 may be used to discon-
nect particular tap signals for demonstrating ‘open-
wire’ scenarios. Relocating a particular jumper to the
NC position will disconnect a cell path to simulate a
broken connection.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The DC2472A is a resistor-string voltage-divider ladder
powered by a variable voltage. A block diagram is shown
in Figure 3 and shows the key functional elements. The
heart of the circuit is an LT8302 isolated flyback converter
that produces both about 40V and 80V from a 5V source
such as a USB charger. The source 5V does not share
a galvanic connection to the equivalent cell-stack being
simulated so that many units can be operated without any
‘ground-loop’ fault currents. The 40V powers an LT6650
amplifier whose 15V output is scaled by a potentiometer
to create a variable voltage. The variable voltage is ampli-
fied 5x by an LTC6090 op amp that is powered from the
80V. The LTC6090 drives an 18-tap resistor ladder to
generate the equivalent series-connected cell voltages.
Each tap pair includes a significant capacitance to pro-
vide steady voltage in the presence of digitizing activity
by the demo board that is being powered. The amplifier
is decoupled and stabilized to operate with the capacitive
load but can still quickly respond to larger load demands
(i.e. the supply dynamics of the battery monitoring cir-
cuit being powered). To also support 6-cell and 12-cell
demonstrations, LTC6090 op amps also buffer 1/3 and
2/3 of the main LTC6090 voltage to provide stabilization
at those points in the ladder that might have to supply
current to a monitoring demo. To support a 15-cell demo,
every 6th cell divider can be shorted over with a jumper
(note that 15-cell demo circuits are designed to accept
their cell inputs in a compatible pinout with 3 zero-volt
cells). The lower voltage LTC6090 units include voltage
reduction Zener diodes to minimize heating of the IC die
if driving load current.
