FEATURES n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n LTM4612 Ultralow Noise 36VIN, 15VOUT, 5A, DC/DC µModule DESCRIPTION The LTM®4612 is a complete, ultralow noise, high voltage input and output, 5A switching mode DC/DC power supply. Included in the package are the switching controller, power FETs, inductor and all support components. Operating over an input voltage range of 5V to 36V, the LTM4612 supports an output voltage range of 3.3V to 15V, set by a single resistor. Only bulk input and output capacitors are needed to finish the design. High switching frequency and an adaptive on-time current mode architecture enables a very fast transient response to line and load changes without sacrificing stability. The onboard input filter and noise cancellation circuits achieve low noise coupling, thus effectively reducing the electromagnetic interference (EMI)—see Figures 4 and 8. Furthermore, the DC/DC μModuleTM can be synchronized with an external clock for reducing undesirable frequency harmonics and allows PolyPhase® operation for high load currents. The LTM4612 is offered in a space saving and thermally enhanced 15mm × 15mm × 2.8mm LGA package, which enables utilization of unused space on the bottom of PC boards for high density point-of-load regulation. The LTM4612 is Pb-free and RoHS compliant. , LT, LTC, LTM and PolyPhase are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation. μModule is a trademark of Linear Technology Corporation.

Apply input voltage between these pins and PGND pins. Recommend placing input decoupling capacitance directly between VIN pins and PGND pins. PGND (Bank 2): Power Ground Pins for Both Input and Output Returns. 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 GND pins (see the LTM4612 Pin Configuration below). VD (Pins B7, C7): Top FET Drain Pins. Add more capacitors between VD and ground to handle the input RMS current and reduce the input ripple further. DRVCC (Pins C10, E11, E12): These pins normally connect to INTVCC for powering the internal MOSFET drivers. They can be biased up to 6V from an external supply with about 50mA capability. 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.

TRACK/SS (Pin A9): Output Voltage Tracking and Soft-Start 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 standalone 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 the Applications Information section. MPGM (Pins A12, B11): Programmable Margining Input. A resistor from these pins to ground sets a current that is equal to 1.18V/R. This current multiplied by 10k will equal a value in millivolts that is a percentage of the 0.6V reference voltage. See the Applications Information section. To parallel LTM4612s, each requires an individual MPGM resistor. Do not tie MPGM pins together. fSET (Pin B12): Frequency Set Internally to 850kHz at 12V Output.

MARG0 (Pin C12): LSB Logic Input for the Margining Function. Together with the MARG1 pin, the MARG0 pin will determine if a margin high, margin low, or no margin state is applied. The pin has an internal pull-down resistor of 50k. See the Applications Information section. MARG1 (Pins C11, D12): MSB Logic Input for the Margining Function. Together with the MARG0 pin, the MARG1 pin will determine if a margin high, margin low, or no margin state is applied. The pins have an internal pull-down resistor of 50k. See the Applications Information section. SGND (Pins D9, H12): Signal Ground Pins.

The current comparator threshold increases with this control voltage. The voltage ranges from 0V to 2.4V with 0.7V corresponding to zero sense voltage (zero current). PGOOD (Pin G12): Output Voltage Power Good Indicator. Open-drain logic output that is pulled to ground when the output voltage is not within ±10% of the regulation point, after a 25μs power bad mask timer expires. RUN (Pins A10, B9): Run Control Pins. A voltage above 1.9V will turn on the module, and below 1V will turn off the module. A programmable UVLO function can be accomplished with a resistor from VIN to this pin that is has a 5.1V zener to ground. Maximum pin voltage is 5V. NC (Pins J12, K12, L12): No Connect Pins.

It can deliver 5A of DC output current with some external input and output capacitors. This module provides precisely regulated output voltage programmable via one external resistor from 3.3VDC to 15VDC over a 5V to 36V wide input voltage. The typical application schematic is shown in Figure 18. The LTM4612 has an integrated constant on-time current mode regulator, ultralow RDS(ON) FETs with fast switching speed and integrated Schottky diodes. The typical switching frequency is 850kHz at full load. With current mode control and internal feedback loop compensation, the LTM4612 module has sufficient stability margins and good transient performance under a wide range of operating conditions and with a wide range of output capacitors, even all ceramic output capacitors. Current mode control provides cycle-by-cycle fast current limiting. Moreover, foldback current limiting is provided in an overcurrent condition while VFB drops. Internal overvoltage and undervoltage comparators pull the opendrain PGOOD output low if the output feedback voltage exits a ±10% window around the regulation point. Furthermore, in an overvoltage condition, internal top FET M1 is turned off and bottom FET M2 is turned on and held on until the overvoltage condition clears. Input filter and noise cancellation circuitry reduce the noise coupling to I/O sides, and ensure the electromagnetic interference (EMI) meets the limits of CISPR 22 and CISPR 25. Pulling the RUN pin below 1V forces the controller into its shutdown state, turning off both M1 and M2. At low load currents, discontinuous mode (DCM) operation can be enabled to achieve higher efficiency compared to continuous mode (CCM) by setting FCB pin higher than 0.6V. When the DRVCC pin is connected to INTVCC, an integrated 5V linear regulator powers the internal gate drivers. If a 5V external bias supply is applied on DRVCC pin, then an efficiency improvement will occur due to the reduced power loss in the internal linear regulator. This is especially true at the higher input voltage range. The MPGM, MARG0, and MARG1 pins are used to support voltage margining, where the percentage of margin is programmed by the MPGM pin, and the MARG0 and MARG1 selected margining. The PLLIN pin provides frequency synchronization of the device to an external clock. The TRACK/SS pin is used for power supply tracking and soft-start programming. 4612f 9 LTM4612 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION The typical LTM4612 application circuit is shown in Figure 18. External component selection is primarily determined by the maximum load current and output voltage. Refer to Table 2 for specific external capacitor requirements for a particular application. VIN to VOUT Stepdown Ratios There are restrictions in the maximum VIN and VOUT step down ratio that can be achieved for a given input voltage. These constraints are shown in the Typical Performance Characteristic curve labeled “VIN to VOUT Step-Down Ratio.” Note that additional thermal derating may be applied. See the Thermal Considerations and Output Current Derating section in this data sheet. Output Voltage Programming and Margining The PWM controller has an internal 0.6V reference voltage. As shown in the Block Diagram, a 100k internal feedback resistor connects the VOUT and VFB pins together. Adding a resistor, RFB, from the VFB pin to the SGND pin programs the output voltage. 100k + RFB VOUT = 0.6 V • RFB Table 1.

This is controlled by the MARG0 and MARG1 pins. See the truth table below: MARG1 LOW LOW HIGH HIGH MARG0 LOW HIGH LOW HIGH MODE NO MARGIN MARGIN UP MARGIN DOWN NO MARGIN Operating Frequency The operating frequency of the LTM4612 is optimized to achieve the compact package size and the minimum output ripple voltage while still keeping high efficiency. As shown in Figure 2, the frequency is linearly increased with larger output voltages to keep the low output current ripple. Figure 3 shows the inductor current ripple ΔI with different output voltages. In most applications, no additional frequency adjusting is required. 1200 1000 FREQUENCY (kHz) INDUCTOR CURRENT RIPPLE ΔI (A) 800 600 400 The MPGM pin programs a current that when multiplied by an internal 10k resistor sets up the 0.6V reference ± offset for margining.

Inductor Current Ripple vs Output Voltage 4612f 10 LTM4612 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION If lower output ripple is required, the operating frequency f can be increased by adding a resistor RfSET between fSET pin and SGND, as shown in Figure 19. f= 1 . 5 • 10 − 10 VOUT (R fSET || 93 . 1k ) In this equation, η is the estimated efficiency of the power module. Note the capacitor ripple current ratings are often based on temperature and hours of life. This makes it advisable to properly derate the input capacitor, or choose a capacitor rated at a higher temperature than required. Always contact the capacitor manufacturer for derating requirements. In a typical 5A output application, one very low ESR, X5R or X7R, 10μF ceramic capacitor is recommended for C1. This decoupling capacitor should be placed directly adjacent to the module VD pins in the PCB layout to minimize the trace inductance and high frequency AC noise. Each 10μF ceramic is typically good for 2A to 3A of RMS ripple current. Refer to your ceramics capacitor catalog for the RMS current ratings. To attenuate the high frequency noise, extra input capacitors should be connected to the VIN pads and placed before the high frequency inductor to form the π filter. One of these low ESR ceramic input capacitors is recommended to be close to the connection into the system board. A large bulk 100μF capacitor is only needed if the input source impedance is compromised by long inductive leads or traces. Figure 4 shows the conducted EMI testing results to meet the Level 5 of the CISPR 25 limit. For different applications, input capacitance may be varied to meet different conducted EMI limits. 80 70 SIGNAL AMPLITUDE (dBμV) 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 0.15 1 FREQUENCY (MHz) 10 30 4612 F04 For output voltages more than 12V, the frequency can be higher than 1MHz, thus reducing the efficiency significantly. Additionally, the minimum off time 400ns normally limits the operation when the input voltage is close to the output voltage. Therefore, it is recommended to lower the frequency in these conditions by connecting a resistor (RfSET) from the fSET pin to VIN, as shown in Figure 20. f= VOUT ⎛ 3 • R fSET • 93 . 1k ⎞ 5 • 10 − 11 ⎜ ⎝ R fSET − 3 • 93 . 1k ⎟ ⎠ The load current can affect the frequency due to its constant on-time control. If constant frequency is a necessity, the PLLIN pin can be used to synchronize the frequency of the LTM4612 to an external clock, as shown in Figures 21 to 23. Input Capacitors LTM4612 is designed to achieve the low input conducted EMI noise due to the fast switching of turn-on and turn-off. In the LTM4612, a high-frequency inductor is integrated into the input line for noise attenuation. VD and VIN pins are available for external input capacitors to form a high frequency π filter. As shown in Figure 18, the ceramic capacitor C1 on the VD pins is used to handle most of the RMS current into the converter, so careful attention is needed for capacitor C1 selection. For a buck converter, the switching duty cycle can be estimated as: V D = OUT VIN Without considering the inductor current ripple, the RMS current of the input capacitor can be estimated as: IOUT(MAX ) ICIN(RMS) = • D • ( 1 – D) η CIS25QP Figure 4.

The bulk output capacitors defined as COUT are chosen with low enough effective series resistance (ESR) to meet the output voltage ripple and transient requirements. COUT can be low ESR tantalum capacitor, low ESR polymer capacitor or ceramic capacitor. The typical capacitance is 150μF if all ceramic output capacitors are used. Additional output filtering may be required by the system designer, if further reduction of output ripple or dynamic transient spike is required. Table 2 shows a matrix of different output voltages and output capacitors to minimize the voltage droop and overshoot during a 2A/μs transient. The table optimizes total equivalent ESR and total bulk capacitance to maximize transient performance. Multiphase operation with multiple LTM4612 devices in parallel will also lower the effective output ripple current due to the phase interleaving operation. Refer to Figure 5 for the normalized output ripple current versus the duty cycle. Figure 5 provides a ratio of peak-to-peak output 1.00 0.95 0.90 0.85 0.80 PEAK-TO-PEAK OUTPUT RIPPLE CURRENT DIr 0.75 0.70 0.65 0.60 0.55 0.50 0.45 0.40 0.35 0.30 0.25 0.20 0.15 0.10 0.05 0 0.1 0.15 0.2 0.25 0.3 0.35 0.4 0.45 0.5 0.55 0.6 0.65 0.7 0.75 0.8 0.85 0.9 DUTY CYCLE (VO/VIN) 4612 F05 ripple current to the inductor ripple current as functions of duty cycle and the number of paralleled phases. Pick the corresponding duty cycle and the number of phases to get the correct output ripple current value. For example, each phase’s inductor ripple current DIr at zero duty cycle is ~4.3A for a 36V to 12V design. The duty cycle is about 0.33. The 2-phase curve has a ratio of ~0.33 for a duty cycle of 0.33. This 0.33 ratio of output ripple current to the inductor ripple current DIr at 4.3A equals 1.4A of the output ripple current (ΔIL). The output voltage ripple has two components that are related to the amount of bulk capacitance and effective series resistance (ESR) of the output bulk capacitance. The equation is: ⎞ ⎛ Δ IL + ESR • Δ IL Δ VOUT (P −P) ≈ ⎜ ⎠ ⎝ 8 • f • N • COUT ⎟ Where f is the frequency and N is the number of paralleled phases. 1-PHASE 2-PHASE 3-PHASE 4-PHASE 6-PHASE RATIO = Figure 5. Normalized Output Ripple Current vs Duty Cycle, Dlr = VOT/LI 4612f 12 LTM4612 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Fault Conditions: Current Limit and Overcurrent Foldback LTM4612 has a current mode controller, which inherently limits the cycle-by-cycle inductor current not only in steady state operation, but also in transient. To further limit current in the event of an overload condition, the LTM4612 provides foldback current limiting. If the output voltage falls by more than 50%, then the maximum output current is progressively lowered to about one sixth of its full current limit value. Soft-Start and Tracking The TRACK/SS pin provides a means to either soft-start the regulator or track it to a different power supply. A capacitor on this pin will program the ramp rate of the output voltage. A 1.5μA current source will charge up the external soft-start capacitor to 80% of the 0.6V internal voltage reference minus any margin delta. This will control the ramp of the internal reference and the output voltage. The total soft-start time can be calculated as: C t SOFTSTART ≅ 0.8 • 0.6 V – VOUT(MARGIN) • SS 1.5µA Output Voltage Tracking Output voltage tracking can be programmed externally using the TRACK/SS pin. The output can be tracked up and down with another regulator. The master regulator’s output is divided down with an external resistor divider that is the same as the slave regulator’s feedback divider. Figure 6 shows an example of coincident tracking. Ratiometric modes of tracking can be achieved by selecting different resistor values to change the output tracking ratio. The master output must be greater than the slave output for the tracking to work. Figure 7 shows the coincident output tracking. RUN Enable The RUN pin is used to enable the power module. The pin has an internal 5.1V zener to ground. The pin can be driven with 5V logic levels. The RUN pin can also be used as an undervoltage lockout (UVLO) function by connecting a resistor divider from the input supply to the RUN pin. The equation for UVLO threshold: VUVLO = R1+ R2 • 1.5V R2 ( ) If the RUN pin falls below 2.5V, then the soft-start pin is reset to allow for the proper soft-start again. Current foldback and force continuous mode are disabled during the soft-start process. The soft-start function can also be used to control the output ramp rising time, so that another regulator can be easily tracked. VIN where R1 is the top resistor, and R2 is the bottom resistor. Power Good The PGOOD pin is an open-drain pin that can be used to monitor valid output voltage regulation. This pin monitors a ±10% window around the regulation point, and tracks with margining.

The module has already been internally compensated for most output voltages. An Excel design tool from Linear Technology will be provided for more control loop optimization. FCB Pin The FCB pin determines whether the bottom MOSFET remains on when current reverses in the inductor. Tying this pin above its 0.6V threshold enables discontinuous operation where the bottom MOSFET turns off when inductor current reverses. FCB pin below the 0.6V threshold forces continuous synchronous operation, allowing current to reverse at light loads and maintaining high frequency operation. PLLIN Pin The power module has a phase-locked loop comprised of an internal voltage controlled oscillator and a phase detector. This allows the internal top MOSFET turn-on to be locked to the rising edge of the external clock. The frequency range is ±30% around the set operating frequency. A pulse detection circuit is used to detect a clock on the PLLIN pin to turn on the phase-locked loop. The pulse width of the clock has to be at least 400ns, and 2V in amplitude. During the start-up of the regulator, the phase-locked loop function is disabled. INTVCC and DRVCC Connection An internal low dropout regulator produces an internal 5V supply that powers the control circuitry and DRVCC for driving the internal power MOSFETs. Therefore, if the system does not have a 5V power rail, the LTM4612 can be directly powered by VIN . The gate driver current through the LDO is about 20mA. The internal LDO power dissipation can be calculated as: PLDO_LOSS = 20mA • (VIN – 5V) The LTM4612 also provides the external gate driver voltage pin DRVCC. If there is a 5V rail in the system, it is recommended to connect the DRVCC pin to the external 5V rail. This is especially true for higher input voltages. Do not apply more than 6V to the DRVCC pin. Parallel Operation The LTM4612 device is an inherently current mode controlled device. This allows the paralleled modules to have very good current sharing and balanced thermal on the design. Figure 21 shows a schematic of the parallel design. The voltage feedback equation changes with the variable N as modules are paralleled. The equation: 100k + RFB N VOUT = 0.6 V RFB N is the number of paralleled modules. Radiated EMI Noise High radiated EMI noise is a disadvantage for switching regulators by nature. Fast switching turn-on and turn-off make the large di/dt change in the converters, which act as the radiation sources in most systems. LTM4612 integrates the feature to minimize the radiated EMI noise to meet the most applications with low noise requirements. An optimized gate driver for the MOSFET and a noise cancellation network are installed inside the LTM4612 to achieve the low radiated EMI noise. Figure 8 shows a typical example for the LTM4612 to meet the Class B of CISPR 22 radiated emission limit. 90 EMISSIONS LEVEL (dBμV/m) 70 50 CISPR22, CLASS B 30 10 0 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 FREQUENCY (MHz) 800 900 1000 4612 F08 Figure 8. Radiated Emission Scan with 24VIN to 12VOUT at 5A Measured in 10 Meter Chamber Thermal Considerations and Output Current Derating In different applications, LTM4612 operates in a variety of thermal environments. The maximum output current is limited by the environment thermal condition. Sufficient cooling should be provided to help ensure reliable opera4612f 14 LTM4612 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION tion. When the cooling is limited, proper output current derating is necessary, considering ambient temperature, airflow, input/output condition, and the need for increased reliability. The power loss curves in Figures 9 and 10 can be used in coordination with the load current derating curves in Figures 11 to 16 for calculating an approximate θJA for the module. Graph designation delineates between no heat sink, and a BGA heat sink. Each of the load current derating curves will lower the maximum load current as a function of the increased ambient temperature to keep the maximum junction temperature of the power module at 6 5 36VIN TO 15VOUT 4 3 24VIN TO 12VOUT 2 1 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 4612 F09 125°C maximum. This will maintain the maximum operating temperature below 125°C. Each of the derating curves and the power loss curve that corresponds to the correct output voltage can be used to solve for the approximate θJA of the condition. Each figure has three curves that are taken at three different air flow conditions. Each of the derating curves in Figures 11 to 16 can be used with the appropriate power loss curve in either Figure 9 or Figure 10 to derive an approximate θJA. Table 3 provides the approximate θJA for Figures 11 to 16.

There is no internal fuse. If required, a slow blow fuse with a rating twice the maximum input current needs to be provided to protect each unit from catastrophic failure. Layout Checklist/Example The high integration of LTM4612 makes the PCB board layout very simple and easy. However, to optimize its electrical and thermal performance, some layout considerations are still necessary. • Use large PCB copper areas for high current path, including VIN, PGND and VOUT. It helps to minimize the PCB conduction loss and thermal stress. • Place high frequency ceramic input and output capacitors next to the VD, PGND and VOUT pins to minimize high frequency noise. • Place a dedicated power ground layer underneath the unit. • Use round corners for the PCB copper layer to minimize the radiated noise. • To minimize the EMI noise and reduce module thermal stress, use multiple vias for interconnection between top layer and other power layers. • Do not put vias directly on pads. • If vias are placed onto the pads, the the vias must be capped. • Interstitial via placement can also be used if necessary. • Use a separated SGND ground copper area for components connected to signal pins. Connect the SGND to PGND underneath the unit. • Place one or more high frequency ceramic capacitors close to the connection into the system board.
