 regulator. The input voltage is from 4.5V to 

15V. The output voltage is jumper selectable from 0.9V 

to 1.8V. The DC2007A-A can deliver a nominal 70A output 

current. As explained in the data sheet, output current 

derating is necessary for certain V

conditions.  The  LTM4630  on  the  DC2007A-A  always 

operates in continuous conduction mode. The switching 

frequency can be programmed through a resistor or can 

be synchronized to an external clock signal. The board 

allows the user to program how its output voltage ramps

is  tightly  regulated  between “VO+”  and “VO-”  through 

remote  output  voltage  sensing  which  improves  output
