The LTM®4655 is an ultralow noise 40V, dual 4A or single
8A DC/DC μModule® regulator designed to meet the radiated emissions requirements of EN55022. Its channels
are fully independent, parallelable and capable of delivering positive or negative output polarity. Conducted emission requirements can be met by adding standard filter
components. Included in the package are the switching
controllers, power MOSFETs, inductors, filters and support components. A 5V, 25mA LDO and clock generator
enable phase interleaving of the power switching stages,
for improved EMC performance.
APPLICATIONS
The LTM4655 is offered in a 16mm × 16mm × 5.01mm
BGA package with SnPb or RoHS compliant terminal finish.
n
The LTM4655 can regulate positive VOUTn+ voltages
between 0.5V and 26.5V from a 3.1V to 40V input. The
LTM4655 can regulate negative VOUTn– voltages between
–0.5V and –26.5V from a maximum input range of 3.6V to
40V, with the span from VINn to VOUTn– not to exceed 40V. A
switching frequency range of 250kHz to 3MHz is supported.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listing under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating conditions for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: The LTM4655 is tested under pulsed load conditions such that TJ ≈
TA. The LTM4655E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications over
the 0°C to 125°C internal operating temperature range. Specifications over
the full –40°C to 125°C internal operating temperature range are assured by
design, characterization and correlation with statistical process controls.
The LTM4655I is guaranteed to meet specifications over the full –40°C to
125°C internal operating temperature range. The LTM4655MP is tested and
guaranteed over the full –55°C to 125°C operating temperature range. Note
that the maximum ambient temperature consistent with these specifications
is determined by specific operating conditions in conjunction with board
layout, the rated package thermal resistance and other environmental factors.
Note 3: See output current derating curves for different VIN, VOUT, and TA,
located in the Applications Information section.
Note 4: Minimum on-time, PGOOD delay, and EXTVCCn switchover
threshold are tested at wafer sort.
Note 5: The two power inputs—VIN1 and VIN2—and their respective
power outputs—VOUT1+ or VOUT1–, and VOUT2+ or VOUT2–, depending on
operational configuration—are tested independently in production, in both
positive-VOUT (noninverting step-down) and negative-VOUT– (inverting
buck-boost) configurations. On occasion, a shorthand notation is used in
this document that allows VINn to refer to both VIN1 and VIN2 by virtue of n
being permitted to take on a value of 1 or 2. This italicized n notation and
convention is extended to all such pin names.

Note 6: To ensure minimum on-time criteria is met, VOUTn (0.5VDC)+ high
line regulation is tested at 13.2VIN, with fSETn and CLKINn open circuit.
VOUTn (–0.5VDC)– low line regulation is tested at 3.6VIN, with fSETn and
CLKINn open circuit.
VOUTn (–0.5VDC)– high line regulation is tested at 28VIN, and with CLKINn
driven at 200kHz—so as to ensure minimum on-time criteria is met.
The LTM4655 is not recommended for applications where the minimum
on-time criteria (guardband to 90ns) is continuously violated. The
LTM4655 can ride through events (such as VIN surge) where the on-time
criteria is transiently violated. See the Applications Information section.
Note 7: See the Applications Information section for dropout criteria.
Note 8: VOUTn (–24VDC)– is tested at 3.6VIN and 16VIN, with CLKINn
driven with a 1.8MHz clock, ISETna to SVOUTn– = 12V, and RfSET = 57.6k.
It is also tested at 12VIN, with CLKINn driven with a 1.5MHz clock, RfSETn
= 57.6k, and RISETn = 480k.
Note 9: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 10: The INTVCCn Abs Max peak output current is specified as the sum
of current drawn by circuits internal to the module biased off of INTVCCn
and current drawn by external circuits biased off of INTVCCn. Specified
independently, for each channel. See the Applications Information section.

open circuit for forced continuous mode operation.
Alternatively, this pin can be driven so as to synchronize
the switching frequency of channel 1 to a clock signal.
In this condition, channel 1 operates in forced continuous mode and the cycle-by-cycle turn-on of its primary
MOSFET is coincident with the rising edge of the clock

To disable spread spectrum frequency modulation
(SSFM), connect CLKOUT2 (pin C12, only) to the MOD
pin (pin E12) with a short trace.
The CLKOUT2 pins at locations B7 and C12 are electrically connected together by a signal trace internal to the
module. It is pinned out as described purely to facilitate
routing of short traces to CLKIN2 and MOD. CLKOUT2
should be routed with minimal trace lengths. Minimize
stray capacitance to these pins.
SVINF1 (B11): Channel 1 Filtered Voltage Supply for Small
Signal Circuits. If powering the LTM4655’s 5V LDO from

SVINF1 or SVINF2 with a short trace capable of carrying up
to 25mA, depending on which input rail is better suited
for powering the 5V LDO. If LDOIN is being powered from
SVINF1 or SVINF2, no bypass capacitance from LDOIN to

can be left open circuit or connected to SVOUT1–.
IMON1a (C2): Channel 1 Power Inductor Current Analog
Indicator Pin and Current Limit Programming Pin. In
positive-VOUT step-down applications, only, the current
flowing out of this pin is equal to 1/40,000 of the average
channel 1 power inductor current. Optionally apply a parallel resistor-capacitor network to this pin and terminate
it to SVOUT1– in order to construct a voltage (VIMON1a–
SVOUT1–) that is proportional to channel 1’s power inductor current.
IMON1a can be connected to IMON1b if the default resistor capacitor termination network provided by IMON1b is
desired. If this analog indicator feature is not desired—
or, in negative-VOUT– buck-boost applications: connect
IMON1a to SVOUT1–.
If IMON1a–SVOUT1– exceeds a trip threshold of approximately 2V, an IMON1 control loop servos channel 1
power inductor current accordingly and thus regulates
IMON1a–SVOUT1– at 2V. In this manner, the current limit
inception threshold of channel 1 can be configured. (See
the Applications Information section.)

to achieve default power inductor analog indicator current
characteristics: 1V (with respect to SVOUT2–) at full-scale
(4A) load current in positive-VOUT, noninverting stepdown applications. (See IMON2a.) If unused, IMON2b
can be left open circuit or connected to SVOUT2–.

flowing out of this pin is equal to 1/40,000 of the average
channel 2 power inductor current. Optionally apply a parallel resistor-capacitor network to this pin and terminate
it to SVOUT2– in order to construct a voltage (VIMON2a–

0.6V. PGOOD1 is pulled to GND when PGDFB1 is outside
this range.
PGDFB1 (D2): Channel 1 Power Good Feedback
Programming Pin. Connect PGDFB1 to VOSNS1+ through a

PIN FUNCTIONS
COMP1b (E1): Channel 1 Internal Loop Compensation
Network. For a majority of applications, the internal,
default loop compensation of the LTM4655 is suitable to
apply “as is”, and yields very satisfactory results: apply
the default loop compensation to channel 1’s control loop
by simply connecting COMP1a to COMP1b. When more
specialized applications require a personal touch to the
optimization of control loop response, this can be easily
accomplished by connecting a series resistor-capacitor
network from COMP1a to SVOUT1– and leaving COMP1b
open circuit.
COMP2b (E6): Channel 2 Internal Loop Compensation
Network. For a majority of applications, the internal,
default loop compensation of the LTM4655 is suitable to
apply “as is”, and yields very satisfactory results: apply
the default loop compensation to channel 2’s control loop
by simply connecting COMP2a to COMP2b. When more
specialized applications require a personal touch to the
optimization of control loop response, this can be easily
accomplished by connecting a series resistor-capacitor
network from COMP2a to SVOUT2– and leaving COMP2b
open circuit.
COMP1a (E2): Current Control Threshold and Error
Amplifier Compensation Node for Channel 1. The trip
threshold of channel 1’s current comparator increases
with a respective rise in COMP1a voltage. A small filter
cap (10pF) internal to the LTM4655 on this pin introduces
a high frequency roll-off of the error amplifier response,
yielding good noise rejection in the control loop. Often,
COMP1a is electrically connected to COMP1b in one’s
application, thus applying default loop compensation.
Loop compensation (a series resistor capacitor) can be
applied externally from COMP1a to SVOUT1–, if desired or
needed, instead. (See COMP1b.)
COMP2a (E7): Current Control Threshold and Error
Amplifier Compensation Node for Channel 2. The trip
threshold of channel 2’s current comparator increases
with a respective rise in COMP2a voltage. A small filter
cap (10pF) internal to the LTM4655 on this pin introduces
a high frequency roll-off of the error amplifier response,

fSET1 (E3): Channel 1 Oscillator Frequency Programming
Pin. The default switching frequency of channel 1 is
400kHz. If needed, the programmed frequency can be
increased by connecting a resistor between fSET1 and
SVOUT1–. Keep fSET1-related trace lengths short. (See the
Applications Information section.) Note the synchronization range of CLKIN1 is approximately ±40% of the oscillator frequency programmed by this fSET1 pin.
fSET2 (E8): Channel 2 Oscillator Frequency Programming
Pin. The default switching frequency of channel 2 is
400kHz. If needed, the programmed frequency can be
increased by connecting a resistor between fSET2 and
SVOUT2–. Keep fSET2-related trace lengths short. (See the
Applications Information section.) Note the synchronization range of CLKIN2 is approximately ±40% of the oscillator frequency programmed by this fSET2 pin.
SVOUT1– (E4, G2, H2): Signal Return of Channel 1. The
SVOUT1– pins are the reference node for channel 1’s control loop. A small island of SVOUT1– copper should be
extended from the module and used to shield sensitive
channel 1 pins and signals from noise—such as those
routing to fSET1, ISET1a/b, and COMP1a/b. All SVOUT1–
pins are connected to each other internal to the module.
Connect Pin H2 to VOUT1– directly under the LTM4655.
The remaining SVOUT1– pins can be used for redundant
connectivity or routed to an ICT test point for designfor-test considerations, as desired. See the Applications
Information section for the layout checklist.
SVOUT2– (E9, G7, H7): Signal Return of Channel 2. The
SVOUT2– pins are the reference node for channel 2’s control loop. A small island of SVOUT2– copper should be

PIN FUNCTIONS
MOD (E12): Modulation Setting Input. This three-state
input selects among four modulation rate settings. The
MOD pin should be tied to GND for the fOUT/16 modulation
rate. Leaving the MOD pin open circuit selects the fOUT/32
modulation rate. The MOD pin should be electrically
connected to LDOOUT for the fOUT/64 modulation rate.
Electrically connecting CLKOUT2 (pin C12, only) to the
MOD pin (pin E12) turns the modulation off. Do not route
high speed digital logic or signals with fast edges near
MOD. Be advised that the fOUT/16, fOUT/32 and fOUT/64
modulation rates are not explicitly tested in factory ATE
to demonstrate their stated typical modulation rates; the
modulation off setting, however, is.
ISET1b (F1): 1.5nF Soft-Start Capacitor for Channel 1.
Connect ISET1b to ISET1a to achieve default soft-start
characteristics on channel 1, if desired. See ISET1a.
ISET1a (F2): Accurate 50μA Current Source. Positive
input to the error amplifier of channel 1. Connect a resistor RISET1a = ((VOUT1+ – VOUT1–)/50μA) from this pin
to SVOUT1– local to the module to program the desired
channel 1 output voltage magnitude, VOUT1+ – VOUT1–. A
capacitor can be connected from ISET1a to SVOUT1– to
soft-start channel 1’s output voltage, i.e., reduce its startup inrush current. Connect ISET1a to ISET1b in order to
achieve default soft-start characteristics if desired. (See
ISET1b.)
EXTVCC1 (F3): External Bias, Auxiliary Input to the
INTVCC1 Regulator. When EXTVCC1–VOUT1– > 3.2V and
SVIN1 > 5V and RUN1–GND > 1.2V, the INTVCC1 LDO
derives power from EXTVCC1 bias instead of SVIN1. This
technique reduces LDO losses considerably, resulting in
a corresponding reduction in module junction temperature. For applications in which 4V < VOUT1+ – VOUT1– <
28V, connect EXTVCC1 to VOUT1+ through a 15Ω~110Ω
resistor and locally decouple EXTVCC1 to VOUT1– with a
1μF ceramic capacitor. Otherwise, connect EXTVCC1 to
VOUT1– or leave EXTVCC1 open circuit. See the Applications
Information section.
RUN1 (F4): Channel 1 Run Control Pin. A voltage above
~1.2V (with respect to GND) commands the module to
regulate its output voltage. Undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
can be implemented by connecting RUN1 to the midpoint
18
node formed by a resistor divider between VIN1 and GND.
RUN1 features ~130mV of hysteresis.
ISET2b (F6): 1.5nF Soft-Start Capacitor for Channel 2.
Connect ISET2b to ISET2a to achieve default soft-start
characteristics on channel 2, if desired. See ISET2a.
In addition, the channel 1 output of the LTM4655 can
track a voltage applied to this pin. (See the Applications
Information section.)
ISET2a (F7): Accurate 50μA Current Source. Positive
input to the error amplifier of channel 1. Connect a resistor RISET2a = ((VOUT2+ – VOUT2–)/50μA) from this pin
to SVOUT2– local to the module to program the desired
channel 2 output voltage magnitude, VOUT2+ – VOUT2–. A
capacitor can be connected from ISET2a to SVOUT2– to
soft-start channel 2’s output voltage, i.e., reduce its startup inrush current. Connect ISET2a to ISET2b in order
to achieve default soft-start characteristics if desired.
(See ISET2b.)
In addition, the channel 2 output of the LTM4655 can
track a voltage applied to this pin. (See the Applications
Information section.)
EXTVCC2 (F8): External Bias, Auxiliary Input to the
INTVCC2 Regulator. When EXTVCC2–VOUT2– > 3.2V and
SVIN2 > 5V and RUN2–GND >1.2V, the INTVCC2 LDO
derives power from EXTVCC2 bias instead of SVIN2. This
technique reduces LDO losses considerably, resulting in
a corresponding reduction in module junction temperature. For applications in which 4V < VOUT2+ – VOUT2– <
28V, connect EXTVCC2 to VOUT2+ through a 15Ω~110Ω
resistor and locally decouple EXTVCC2 to VOUT2– with a
1μF ceramic capacitor. Otherwise, connect EXTVCC2 to
VOUT2– or leave EXTVCC2 open circuit. See the Applications
Information section.
RUN2 (F9): Channel 2 Run Control Pin. A voltage above
~1.2V (with respect to GND) commands the module to
regulate its output voltage. Undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
can be implemented by connecting RUN2 to the midpoint
node formed by a resistor divider between VIN2 and GND.

INTVCC2 (G8): Channel 2 Internal Regulator, 3.3V Output

Leave INTVCC2 open circuit. An LDO generates INTVCC2
from either SVIN2 or EXTVCC2, when RUN2 is logic high
(RUN2–GND > 1.2V). The INTVCC2 LDO is turned off when
RUN2 is logic low (RUN2–GND < 1.2V). (See EXTVCC2.)
Resistor values between 32.2k and 499k are supported,
corresponding to oscillator frequency settings of 3MHz
to 200kHz, respectively. Minimize stray capacitance to
this pin.
LDOOUT (G12): Output of the LTM4655’s GND Referenced
5V-Fixed LDO. No bypass capacitance is needed. Powers
the clock generator internal to the LTM4655. Can deliver
up to 25mA of current.
VOSNS1+ (G1, H1): Positive Voltage Sense Input for
Channel 1. Route a signal trace from VOSNS1+ to VOUT1+
at channel 1’s point-of-load (POL). This provides the feedback signal to channel 1’s control loop. In noisy environments, shield VOSNS1+ from electrical noise by sandwiching the trace between PGND copper. Pins G1 and H1 are
electrically connected to each other internal to the module, and thus it is only necessary to connect one VOSNS1+
pin to VOUT1+ at the POL. The remaining VOSNS1+ pin can
be used for redundant connectivity or routed to an ICT
test point for design-for-test considerations, as desired.
SW1 (H4): Switching Node of Channel 1 Switching
Converter Stage. Used for test purposes. May be routed
a short distance with a thin trace to a local test point to
monitor switching action of the converter, if desired, but
do not route near any sensitive signals; otherwise, leave
electrically open circuit.
INTVCC1 (G3): Channel 1 Internal Regulator, 3.3V Output
with Respect to VOUT1–. Channel 1 internal control circuits
and MOSFET drivers derive power from INTVCC1 bias.
Leave INTVCC1 open circuit. An LDO generates INTVCC1
from either SVIN1 or EXTVCC1, when RUN1 is logic high
(RUN1–GND > 1.2V). The INTVCC1 LDO is turned off when
RUN1 is logic low (RUN1–GND < 1.2V). (See EXTVCC1.)
VOSNS2+ (G6, H6): Positive Voltage Sense Input for
Channel 2. Route a signal trace from VOSNS2+ to VOUT2+
at channel 2’s point-of-load (POL). This provides the feedback signal to channel 2’s control loop. In noisy environments, shield VOSNS2+ from electrical noise by sandwiching the trace between PGND copper. Pins G6 and H6 are
electrically connected to each other internal to the module, and thus it is only necessary to connect one VOSNS2+
pin to VOUT2+ at the POL. The remaining VOSNS2+ pin can
be used for redundant connectivity or routed to an ICT

SW2 (H9): Switching Node of Channel 2 Switching
Converter Stage. Used for test purposes. May be routed
a short distance with a thin trace to a local test point to
monitor switching action of the converter, if desired, but
do not route near any sensitive signals; otherwise, leave
electrically open circuit.
NC (J1–2, J11–12): No Connect Pins, i.e., Pins with No
Internal Connection. The NC pins predominantly serve to
provide improved mounting of the module to the board.
For drop-in compatibility of the LTM4651/LTM4653 into
either half of a LTM4655 layout, these NC are recommended to be left electrically open circuit.

(5)
In rare cases where the minimum on-time restriction
is violated, the channel n frequency of the LTM4655
automatically and gradually folds back down to approximately one-fifth of its programmed switching frequency
to allow VOUT to remain in regulation. See the Frequency
Adjustment section. Be reminded of Notes 2 and 3 in
the Electrical Characteristics section regarding output
current guidelines.
Input Capacitors, Positive-VOUT Operation
The LTM4655 achieves low input conducted EMI noise
due to tight layout and high frequency bypassing of
MOSFETs MTn and MBn within the module itself. A small
filter inductor (400nH) is integrated in the input line (from
VINn to VDn), providing further noise attenuation—again,
local to the switching MOSFETs. The VDn and VINn pins
are available for external input capacitors—CDn and
CINHn—to form a high-frequency π filter. As shown in
the Simplified Block Diagram, the ceramic capacitor CDn
on the LTM4655’s VDn pins handles the majority of the
RMS current into the DC/DC converter power stage and
requires careful selection, for that reason.
See Figure 7 through Figure 9 for demonstration of
LTM4655’s EMI performance, meeting the radiated emissions requirements of EN55022B.
The input capacitance, CDn, is needed to filter the pulsed
current drawn by MTn. To prevent excessive voltage sag
on VDn, a low-effective series resistance (low-ESR, such
as an X7R ceramic) input capacitor should be used, sized
appropriately for the maximum CDn RMS ripple current
(Equation 6)
ICDn(RMS) =
IOUTn(MAX)

where ηn% is the estimated efficiency of the channel n power module. (See Typical Performance

LTM4655
OPERATION
Several capacitors may be paralleled to meet the application’s target size, height, and CDn RMS ripple current
rating. For lower input voltage applications, sufficient bulk
input capacitance is needed to counteract line sag and
transient effects during output load changes. The bulk
capacitor can be a switcher-rated aluminum electrolytic
capacitor or a Polymer capacitor. Suggested values for
CDn and CINHn are found in Table 11.
A final precaution regarding ceramic capacitors concerns
the maximum input voltage rating of the LTM4655’s VINn,
SVINn, and VDn pins. A ceramic input capacitor combined
with trace or cable inductance forms a high Q (underdamped) tank circuit. If the LTM4655 circuit is plugged
into a live supply, the input voltage can ring to twice its
nominal value, possibly exceeding the device’s rating.
This situation is easily avoided; see the Hot Plugging
Safely section.
Output Capacitors, Positive-VOUT Operation
Output capacitors COUTHn and COUTLn are applied across
the LTM4655’s VOUTn+/VOUTn– power output pins.
Sufficient capacitance and low ESR are called for, to
meet the output voltage ripple, loop stability, and transient requirements. COUTLn can be a low ESR tantalum
or polymer capacitor. COUTHn is a ceramic capacitor. The
typical output capacitance is 22μF (type X5R material, or
better), if ceramic-only output capacitors are used.
Table 11 shows a matrix of suggested output capacitors
optimized for 2A transient step-loads applied at 2A/μs.
Additional output filtering may be required by the system
designer, if further reduction of output ripple or dynamic
transient spike is required. The LTpowerCAD design tool is
available for transient and stability analysis. Stability criteria are considered in the Table 11 matrix, and LTpowerCAD
is available for stability analysis. Multiphase operation will
reduce effective output ripple as a function of the number of phases. Application Note 77 discusses this noise
reduction versus output ripple current cancellation, but
the output capacitance should be considered carefully as a
function of stability and transient response. LTpowerCAD
can be used to calculate the output ripple reduction as the
number of implemented phases increases by N times.
External loop compensation can be applied from COMPna
to SVOUTn–, if needed, for transient response optimization.
Forced Continuous Operation
Leave the CLKINn pin open circuit to command channel n of the LTM4655 for forced continuous operation.
In this mode, the control loop is allowed to command the
inductor peak current to approximately –1A, allowing for
significant negative average current. Clocking the CLKINn
pin at a frequency within ±40% of the target switching frequency commanded by the fSETn pin synchronizes MTn’s
turn-on to the rising edge of the CLKINn pin.
Output Voltage Programming, Tracking and Soft-Start
The LTM4655 regulates its output voltage, VOUTn+ – VOUTn–,
according to the differential voltage present from ISETna to
SVOUTn–. In most applications, the output voltage is set by
simply connecting a resistor, RISETn, from ISETna to SVOUTn–,
according to Equation 7.
RISETn =
VOUTn + − VOUTn −
50µA
(7)
Since the LTM4655 control loop servos its output voltage
according to the voltage between ISETna and SVOUTn–:
placing a capacitor, CSSn, parallel to RISETn configures the
ramp-up rate of ISETna and thus the output. In the time
domain, the output voltage ramp-up after the RUNn pin is
toggled from low to high (t = 0s) is given by Equation 8.

LTM4655
OPERATION
A default value of CSSn = 1.5nF can be implemented by
connecting ISETna to ISETnb. For other ramp-up rates,
connect an external CSS capacitor parallel to RISET.
The LTM4655’s minimum on-time, tONn(MIN), is specified
as 60ns. For a practical design, it is recommended to
guardband to 90ns.
When starting up into a pre-biased VOUT, the LTM4655
stays in a sleep mode, keeping MTn and MBn off until
VISETna equals VOSNSn+—after which, the DC/DC converter commences switching action and VOUT is ramped
according to the voltage commanded by ISETna.
To configure channel n of the LTM4655 for a higher
switching frequency than its default of 400kHz, apply
a resistor, RfSETn, between the fSETn pin and SVOUTn+.
RfSETn is given (in MΩ) by Equation 13.
The LTM4655 can track the mirror-image of a positive rail to generate the negative half of a split-supply, as seen in Figure 50 (note the use of RTRACK and
RISET2 = RISET1 || RTRACK).
Frequency Adjustment
The default switching frequency (fSWn) of channel n of the
LTM4655 is 400kHz. This is suitable for low-VIN (VINn ≤
5V) applications and low-VOUT (VOUTn+ – VOUTn– ≤ 3.3V)
applications. For a practical design, the LTM4655’s inductor ripple current (ΔInPK-PK) is suggested to be less than
~2APK-PK. Choose fSWn according to Equation 11.

VOUTn + − VOUTn − • (1− Dn )

(11)

The relationship of RfSETn to programmed fSWn is shown
in Figure 1. See Table 11 and Table 12 for recommended
fSWn and corresponding RfSETn values for various combinations of VINn, VOUTn+ and VOUTn–.
PROGRAMMED SWITCHING FREQUENCY (MHz)
Since the LTM4655 control loop servos its VOSNSn+ voltage to match that of ISETna’s, the LTM4655’s channel
n output can be configured to track any voltage applied
to ISETna, referenced to SVOUTn–. See Figure 52 for an
example of the LTM4655 configured as a DAC-controlled
bipolar-output programmable power supply.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Power Module Protection
The LTM4655’s current mode control architecture provides fast cycle-by-cycle current limit in an overcurrent condition, as shown in the Typical Performance
Characteristics section. If the output voltage collapses
sufficiently due to an overload or short-circuit condition,
minimum on-time will be violated and the internal oscillator will then fold-back automatically to one-fifth of the
LTM4655’s programmed switching frequency—thereby
reducing the output current and affording the load a
chance to recover.
The LTM4655 ceases channel n switching action if the
channel’s internal temperatures exceed 165°C. The channel’s control IC resumes operation after a 10°C cool-down
hysteresis. Note that these typical parameters are based
on measurements in a lab oven and are not production
tested. This overtemperature protection is intended to
protect the device during momentary overload conditions. The maximum rated junction temperature will be
exceeded when this overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified absolute maximum operating junction temperature may impair device
reliability or permanently damage the device. See Note 1
of the Electrical Characteristics table.

The LTM4655 does not feature any specialized output

control loop’s servo mechanism.
When RUNn is below its threshold, UVLO of channel n

to be regulated, and ISETna is discharged to SVOUTn– by
internal circuitry.
RUN Pin Enable
Loop Compensation
The RUNn pin is used to enable the power module or
sequence the power module. The threshold is 1.2V. The
RUNn pin can be used to provide an undervoltage lockout
(UVLO) function by connecting a resistor divider from
the input supply to the RUNn pin, as shown in Figure 2.
Undervoltage lockout keeps channel n of the LTM4655
in shutdown until the supply input voltage is above a
certain voltage programmed by the user. The RUNn pin
hysteresis voltage prevents noise from falsely tripping
External loop compensation may be preferred for some
applications and can be implemented easily, as follows:
leave COMPnb open circuit; connect a series-RC network RTHn and CTHn from COMPnb to SVOUTn–; in some
instances, connect a capacitor (CTHPn) from COMPna to
SVOUTn– (paralleling the RTHn–CTHn series-RC network).
See Table 11 and Table 12 for suggested input and output capacitances for a variety of operating conditions.

LTM4655
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Hot Plugging Safely
The small size, robustness and low impedance of ceramic
capacitors make them an attractive option for the input
bypass capacitors (CDn and CINHn) of the LTM4655.
However, these capacitors can cause problems if the
LTM4655 is plugged into a live supply (see Analog Devices
Application Note 88 for a complete discussion). The low
loss ceramic capacitor combined with stray inductance in
series with the power source forms an under damped tank
circuit, and the voltage at the VINn pin of the LTM4655 can
ring to twice the nominal input voltage, possibly exceeding the LTM4655’s rating and damaging the part. If the
input supply is poorly controlled or the user will be plugging the LTM4655 into an energized supply, the input
network should be designed to prevent this overshoot by
introducing a damping element into the path of current
flow. This is often done by adding an inexpensive electrolytic bulk capacitor (CINLn) across the input terminals
of the LTM4655. The selection criteria for CINLn calls for:
an ESR high enough to damp the ringing; a capacitance
value several times larger than CINHn; a suitable ripple current rating. CINLn does not need to be located physically
close to the LTM4655; it should be located close to the
application board’s input connector, instead.
(Figure 4). Applications with loads that experience large
load-step release, load dump or other mechanisms that
invoke reverse energy flow in the Figure 3 circuit may
need a suitably-rated Zener diode protection clamp, to
limit the resulting transient voltage rise on SVINn/VINn
and CINHn.
VINn

OPT
However, if the SVINn/VINn pins are grounded while the
output is held high, regardless of the RUNn state, parasitic body diodes inside the LTM4655 will pull current
from the output through the VOUTn+ pins. Depending on
the size of the output capacitor and the resistivity of the
short, high currents may flow through the internal body
diode, and cause damage to the part. If discharge of
SVINn/VINn by the input source is possible, preventative
measures should be taken to prevent current flow through
the internal body diode. Simple solutions would be placing a Schottky diode in series with the supply (Figure 3),
or placing a Schottky diode from VOUTn+ to SVINn/VINn

If at any point the input supply is removed with the output
voltage still held high through its capacitor, power will be
drawn from the output capacitor to power the module,
until the output voltage drops below the minimum SVINn/
VINn requirements of the module.
VINn
INTVCCn and EXTVCCn Connection
When RUNn is logic high, an internal low dropout regulator regulates an internal supply, INTVCCn, that powers the
control circuitry for driving LTM4655’s channel n internal
MOSFETs. INTVCCn is regulated at 3.3V. In this manner,
the LTM4655’s INTVCCn is directly powered from SVINn,
by default. The gate driver current through the INTVCCn
LDO is about 20mA for a typical 1MHz application. The
internal LDO power dissipation can be calculated as
shown in Equation 16.
PLDO_LOSSn(INTVCC) = 20mA •(SVINn − − VOUTn − – 3V)
(16)
The LDO draws current off of EXTVCCn instead of SVINn
when EXTVCCn–VOUTn– exceeds 3.2V and SVINn–SVOUTn–
exceeds 5V. For output voltages of 4V and higher, EXTVCCn

−
PLDO_LOSSn(EXTVCC) = 20mA •(VOUTn − VOUTn − 3V)
(17)
The recommended value of the resistor between VOUTn+
and EXTVCCn is roughly (VOUTn+ – VOUTn–) • 4Ω/V. This
resistor, REXTVCCn, must be rated to continually dissipate
(0.02A)² • REXTVCCn. The primary purpose of this resistor
is to prevent EXTVCCn overstress under a fault condition.
For example, when an inductive short-circuit is applied
to the module’s output, VOUT+ may be briefly dragged
below VOUTn–—forward biasing the VOUTn–-to-EXTVCCn
body diode. This resistor limits the magnitude of current
flow in EXTVCCn. If the application requires a low resistive
path to EXTVCCn, apply a protective Schottky diode across
EXTVCCn and VOUTn–; see Figure 52. Bypass EXTVCCn to
VOUTn– with 1μF of X5R (or better) MLCC.
Multiphase Operation
Multiple LTM4655 channels and modules can be paralleled
for higher output current applications. For lowest input
and output voltage and current ripples, it is advisable to
synchronize paralleled LTM4655s to a clock (within ±40%
of the target switching frequency set by fSETn.
LTM4655 channels and modules can be paralleled without synchronizing circuits: just be aware that some beatfrequency ripple will be present in the output voltage and
reflected input current by virtue of the fact that such modules are not operating at identical, synchronized switching
frequencies.
The LTM4655 device is an inherently current mode controlled device, so parallel channels and modules will have
good current sharing as shown in Figure 45 and Figure 47.
To parallel LTM4655 channels and/or modules, connect the respective COMPna, ISETna, and VOSNSn+ pins
of each LTM4655 together to share the current evenly.
In addition, tie the respective RUNn pins of paralleled
LTM4655 channels and/or modules together, to ensure
proper start-up and shutdown behavior.
Note that for parallel applications, VOUT can be set by a single,
common resistor on the ISETna net (see Equation 18).
RISETn =
VOUTn + − VOUTn −
50µA •N
(18)
where N is the number of LTM4655 channels in parallel
configuration.
Depending on the duty cycle of operation, the output
voltage ripple achieved by paralleled, synchronized
LTM4655 modules may be considerably smaller than
what is yielded by a single-phase solution. Application
Note 77 provides a detailed explanation of multiphase
operation (relevant to parallel LTM4655 applications)
pertaining to noise reduction and output and input ripple
current cancellation. Regardless of ripple current cancellation, it remains important for the output capacitance of
paralleled LTM4655 applications to be designed for loop
stability and transient response. LTpowerCAD is available
for such analysis.

*Current limit frequency-foldback activates at load currents higher than indicated curves. Continuous channel

The reason for this is inherent in the two-switch buck-boost
topology employed by the LTM4655 when so-configured
for negative-VOUT operation. To protect the primary power
MOSFET (MTn) from overstress (see Simplified Block
Diagram), its peak current (InPK) is limited by control
circuitry to 6A. When MTn is on, observe that no current
flows to LTM4655’s output; furthermore, observe that
only when MTn is off does current flow to the output of
the LTM4655. As a consequence of this arrangement: for
a given output voltage, current limit inception activates
sooner at low line (higher, larger duty cycle) than at high
line (lower, smaller duty cycle). A further consequence
is: for a given input voltage, the output power capability
of the LTM4655 is higher for lower-magnitude VOUTn–
(lower, smaller duty cycle) than for higher-magnitude
VOUTn– (higher, larger duty cycle). The combination of

LTM4655
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
In rare cases where the minimum on-time restriction is violated, the frequency of the affected LTM4655
channel(s) automatically and gradually folds back down to
one-fifth of its programmed switching frequency to allow
VOUTn– to remain in regulation.
Be reminded of Notes 2, and 3 in the Electrical
Characteristics section regarding output current
guidelines.
Input Capacitors, Negative-VOUT– Operation
The LTM4655 achieves low input conducted EMI noise
due to tight layout and high-frequency bypassing of
MOSFETs MTn and MBn within the module itself. A small

filter inductor (400nH) is integrated in the input line (from
VINn to VDn) provides further noise attenuation—again,
local to the switching MOSFETs. The VDn and VINn pins
are available for external input capacitors—CDn and
CINHn—to form a high-frequency � filter. As shown in
the Simplified Block Diagram, the ceramic capacitor CDn
on the LTM4655’s VDn pins handles the majority of the
RMS current into the DC/DC converter power stage and
requires careful selection, for that reason.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The input capacitance, CDn, is needed to filter the pulsed
current drawn by MTn. To prevent excessive voltage sag
on VDn, a low-effective series resistance (low-ESR) input
capacitor should be used, sized appropriately for the
maximum CDn RMS ripple current (see Equation 24).
ICDn(RMS) =InPK • Dn • (1–Dn )
(24)
I CDn(RMS) is maximum for D n = 1/2. For D n = 1/2,
I CDn(RMS) = 1/2 • I nPK or 3A. This simplification of the
worst-case condition is commonly used for design purposes because even significant deviations in Dn do not
offer much relief, in practice. Furthermore: note that ripple
current ratings from capacitor manufacturers are often
based on 2000 hours of life; therefore, it is advisable to
significantly over-design CDn, and/or choose a capacitor
rated at a higher temperature than required. Err on the
side of caution and contact the capacitor manufacturer to
understand the capacitor vendor’s derating methodology.
Several capacitors may be paralleled to meet the application’s target size, height, and CDn RMS ripple current
rating. For lower input voltage applications, sufficient bulk
input capacitance is needed for CINLn to counteract line
sag and transient effects during output load changes.
Suggested values for CDn and CINHn are found in Table 12.
Take note that CDn is connected from VDn to VOUTn–,
whereas CINHn and CINLn are connected from VINn to
power ground; this is deliberate.
A final precaution regarding ceramic capacitors concerns
the maximum input voltage rating of the LTM4655’s VINn,
SVINn, and VDn pins. A ceramic input capacitor combined
with trace or cable inductance forms a high Q (underdamped) tank circuit. If the LTM4655 circuit is plugged
into a live supply, the input voltage can ring to twice its
nominal value, possibly exceeding the device’s rating.
This situation is easily avoided; see the Hot Plugging
Safely section.
Output Capacitors, Negative-VOUT– Operation
Output capacitors COUTHn and COUTLn are applied across
the LTM4655’s VOUTn+/VOUTn– power output pins: sufficient capacitance and low ESR are called for, to meet the
output voltage ripple, loop stability, and transient requirements. COUTLn can be a low ESR tantalum or polymer
34
capacitor. COUTHn is a ceramic capacitor. The typical output capacitance is 22μF (type X5R material, or better), if
ceramic-only output capacitors are used.
For highest reliability designs, polarized output capacitors (COUTLn) are not recommended, as there is a possibility of a diode-drop of reverse voltage appearing transiently on VOUTn– during rapid application of input voltage or when RUNn is toggled logic high (see Figure 49).
When polarized capacitors are used on VOUTn–, contact
the capacitor vendor to understand what reverse voltage their polarized capacitor can withstand. Be advised,
polarized capacitor reverse voltage rating is sometimes
temperature-dependent.
Output voltage ripple (∆VOUTn(PK-PK)–) is governed by
charge lost in COUTHn and COUTLn while MTn is on, in
addition to the contribution of a resistive drop across
the ESR of the output capacitors. This is expressed by
Equation 25.
ΔVOUTn(PK–PK) ≈
ILOADn •D ILOADn •ESRn
+
(25)
COUTn • fSWn
Dn
Table 12 shows a matrix of suggested output capacitors
optimized for transient step-loads that are 50% of the full
load capability for that combination of VINn, VOUTn–, and
fSWn. The table optimizes total equivalent ESR and total
bulk capacitance to yield the stated transient-load performance. Additional output filtering may be required by
the system designer, if further reduction of output ripple
or dynamic transient spike is required. The LTpowerCAD
design tool is available for transient and stability analysis.
Optional Diodes to Guard Against Overstress,
Negative-VOUT– Operation
Just prior to output voltage start-up, a mechanism exists
whereby a diode-drop of reverse polarity can appear on
VOUTn–. See the Simplified Block Diagram and observe:
just prior to output voltage start-up, SVINn bias current
(ISVINn) flows through the module’s control IC, to SVOUTn–;
from there, the bias current (now ISVOUTn–) flows into
VOUTn– and through MBn’s body diode, to SWn. This current (now ILn) continues to flow—though the 4μH power
inductor—to VOUTn+ and thus ground, closing the control IC bias circuit’s path. It is this current through MBn’s

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
body diode that creates a diode-drop of reverse polarity
(positive voltage) on VOUTn–, as shown in Figure 49. The
voltage excursion is highest when RUNn toggles high
because that is the instant when INTVCCn powers-up, with
a corresponding increase in ISVINn/ISVOUTn–/ILn current
flow. With higher current flow, the forward voltage drop
(VF) of MBn’s body diode—and thus, the positive voltage
excursion on VOUTn– is higher.
If this transient voltage excursion is unwelcome for the
load or polarized output capacitors, minimize it with a
low VF Schottky diode that straddles VOUTn– and VOUTn+
(see Figure 48 circuit and Figure 49 performance).
Additionally, the voltage excursion can be empirically
reduced by increasing output capacitance.
Lastly: in applications where it is anticipated that VINn
may be rapidly applied (e.g., 1.2VTYP = ON
