DESCRIPTION
The
LTM
®
4678
is a dual 25A or single 50A step-down
µModule
®
(power module) DC/DC regulator featuring
remote configurability and telemetry-monitoring of power
management parameters over PMBus—an
open standard
I
2
C-based digital interface protocol . The LTM4678
is comprised of digitally programmable analog control
loops, precision mixed-signal circuitry, EEPROM, power
MOSFETs, inductors and supporting components.
The LTM4678’s 2-wire serial interface allows outputs to
be margined, tuned and ramped up and down at program-
mable slew rates with sequencing delay times. True input
current sense, output currents and voltages, output power,
temperatures, uptime and
peak values
are readable. Custom
configuration of the EEPROM contents is not required. At
start-up, output voltages, switching frequency, and channel
phase angle assignments can be set by pin-strapping resis-
tors. The
LTpowerPlay
®
GUI and DC1613 USB-to-PMBus
converter and
demo kits
are available.
The LTM4678 is offered in a 16mm × 16mm × 5.86mm
CoP-BGA package available with SnPb or RoHS compliant
terminal finish.
