LTM4601HV 12A 28VIN DC/DC µModule with PLL, Output Tracking and Margining DESCRIPTIO
The LTM®4601HV is a complete 12A step-down switch mode DC/DC power supply with onboard switching controller, MOSFETs, inductor and all support components. The µModule is housed in a small surface mount 15mm ×15mm × 2.8mm LGA package. Operating over an input voltage range of 4.5 to 28V, the LTM4601HV supports an output voltage range of 0.6V to 5V as well as output voltage tracking and margining. The high efficiency design delivers 12A continuous current (14A peak). Only bulk input and output capacitors are needed to complete the design. The low profile (2.8mm) and light weight (1.7g) package easily mounts in unused space on the back side of PC boards for high density point of load regulation. The µModule can be synchronized with an external clock for reducing undesirable frequency harmonics and allows PolyPhase® operation for high load currents. A high switching frequency and adaptive on-time current mode architecture deliver a very fast transient response to line and load changes without sacrificing stability. An onboard differential remote sense amplifier can be used to accurately regulate an output voltage independent of load current.

VIN (Bank 1): Power Input Pins. Apply input voltage between these pins and PGND pins. Recommend placing input decoupling capacitance directly between VIN pins and PGND pins. VOUT (Bank 3): Power Output Pins. Apply output load between these pins and PGND pins. Recommend placing output decoupling capacitance directly between these pins and PGND pins. Review the figure below. PGND (Bank 2): Power ground pins for both input and output returns. VOSNS– (Pin M12): (–) Input to the Remote Sense Amplifier. This pin connects to the ground remote sense point. The remote sense amplifier is used for VOUT ≤3.3V. VOSNS+ (Pin J12): (+) Input to the Remote Sense Amplifier. This pin connects to the output remote sense point. The remote sense amplifier is used for VOUT ≤3.3V. DIFFVOUT (Pin K12): Output of the Remote Sense Amplifier. This pin connects to the VOUT_LCL pin. DRVCC (Pin E12): This pin normally connects to INTVCC for powering the internal MOSFET drivers. This pin can be biased up to 6V from an external supply with about 50mA capability, or an external circuit shown in Figure 18. This improves efficiency at the higher input voltages by reducing power dissipation in the module. INTVCC (Pin A7): This pin is for additional decoupling of the 5V internal regulator.

PLLIN (Pin A8): External Clock Synchronization Input to the Phase Detector. This pin is internally terminated to SGND with a 50k resistor. Apply a clock above 2V and below INTVCC. See Applications Information. TRACK/SS (Pin A9): Output Voltage Tracking and SoftStart Pin. When the module is configured as a master output, then a soft-start capacitor is placed on this pin to ground to control the master ramp rate. A soft-start capacitor can be used for soft-start turn on as a stand alone regulator. Slave operation is performed by putting a resistor divider from the master output to the ground, and connecting the center point of the divider to this pin. See Applications Information. MPGM (Pin A12): Programmable Margining Input. A resistor from this pin to ground sets a current that is equal to 1.18V/R. This current multiplied by 10kΩ will equal a value in millivolts that is a percentage of the 0.6V reference voltage. See Applications Information. To parallel LTM4601HVs, each requires an individual MPGM resistor. Do not tie MPGM pins together. fSET (Pin B12): Frequency Set Internally to 850kHz. An external resistor can be placed from this pin to ground to increase frequency. This pin can be decoupled with a 1000pF capacitor. See Applications Information for frequency adjustment. VFB (Pin F12): The Negative Input of the Error Amplifier. Internally, this pin is connected to VOUT_LCL pin with a 60.4k precision resistor. Different output voltages can be programmed with an additional resistor between VFB and SGND pins. See Applications Information.
