DEMO MANUAL DC2254A
Description
LTC2956
Wake-Up Timer
with Pushbutton Control
Demonstration circuits 2254A-A and 2254A-B feature the
LTC2956-1 and LTC2956-2, respectively. The
is a micropower, wide input voltage range, configurable
wake-up timer with pushbutton control. It periodically
wakes up and turns on a connected system to perform
tasks like monitoring temperature or capturing images.
After completing the task, the LTC2956 turns the system
off to conserve power. The wake-up timer period can be
adjusted from 250ms to 39 days.

The DC2254A allows easy access to all the pins necessary
to configure the device. Onboard jumpers, and an 8-pin
DIP switch provide a range of value options, to set the
wake-up timer, wake-up timer period and long power down
time. Turrets are also present, allowing direct access to all
the pins present on the LTC2956 to allow easy interfacing
with a system with arbitrary requirements.
