DC2467A - LTC2970 Linduino One Shield [requires DC2026, optional DC1613]
The DC2467 Linduino® shield is a demonstration system for the LTC2970 dual power supply monitor and margining controller. The LTC2970 provides a rich set of features for monitoring and controlling two power rails, including monitoring supply voltage and current, detecting faults in voltage and current, margining the supply voltage high or low, measuring temperature, and turning the supplies on and off through GPIO pins. It is fully accessible through the built-in I2C bus, which allows it to communicate with an external microcontroller or other I2C bus master.

LTpowerPlay
LTpowerPlay is a powerful development environment supporting Linear Technology's Digital Power System Management (PSM) products, providing unprecedented diagnostic and debug features.
Linduino
Linduino is an Arduino compatible platform for developing and distributing firmware libraries and code for SPI and I²C-compatible integrated circuits. The Linduino One board interfaces to more than 300 QuikEval demonstration cards, supporting a variety of product types including analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), digital-to-analog converters (DACs), power monitors, and more. Firmware libraries for individual devices are written in C and designed to be portable to a wide variety of processors and microcontrollers. Each library has a demonstration program that can be uploaded to the Linduino One platform to allow the circuit and software to be quickly and easily verified.
