LTM4601A/LTM4601A-1
12A µModule Regulators
with PLL, Output Tracking
and Margining
DESCRIPTION
The
LTM
®
4601A
is a complete 12A step-down switch mode
DC/DC power supply with onboard switching controller,
MOSFETs, inductor and all support components. The
µModule
®
regulator is housed in a small surface mount
15mm
×
15mm
×
2.82mm LGA or 15mm
×
15mm
×
3.42mm BGA package. The LTM4601A LGA and BGA
packages are designed with redundant mounting pads to
enhance solder-joint strength for extended temperature
cycling endurance. Operating over an input voltage range
of 4.5V to 20V, the LTM4601A 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 and light weight package easily mounts
on the back side of PC boards. The µModule regulator
can be synchronized with an external clock for reducing
undesirable frequency harmonics and allows PolyPhase
®
operation for high load currents.
An onboard differential remote sense amplifier can be used
to accurately regulate an output voltage independent of
load current. The onboard remote sense amplifier is not
available in the LTM4601A-1.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
The LTM4601A is tested under pulsed load conditions such that
T
J
≈ T
A
. The LTM4601AE/LTM4601AE-1 are guaranteed to meet
performance specifications from 0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the
–40°C to 85°C operating temperature range are assured by design,
characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The
LTM4601AI/LTM4601AI-1 are guaranteed over the –40°C to 85°C
operating temperature range.
Note 3:
Remote sense amplifier recommended for ≤3.3V output.
Note 4:
