DEMO MANUAL DC2254A LTC2956 Wake-Up Timer with Pushbutton Control Description Demonstration circuits 2254A-A and 2254A-B feature the The DC2254A allows easy access to all the pins necessary LTC2956-1 and LTC2956-2, respectively. The LTC 2956 to configure the device. Onboard jumpers, and an 8-pin is a micropower, wide input voltage range, configurable DIP switch provide a range of value options, to set the wake-up timer with pushbutton control. It periodically wake-up timer, wake-up timer period and long power down wakes up and turns on a connected system to perform time. Turrets are also present, allowing direct access to all tasks like monitoring temperature or capturing images. the pins present on the LTC2956 to allow easy interfacing After completing the task, the LTC2956 turns the system with a system with arbitrary requirements. off to conserve power. The wake-up timer period can be Design files for this circuit board are available at adjusted from 250ms to 39 days.
