DESCRIPTION

LTM4601AHV

5VIN to 28VIN, 12A Step-Down

µModule Regulator

Demonstration circuit 1414B-B features the

LTM

4601AHVEV, the high efficiency, high density switch

mode step-down power module. The input voltage range

is 5V to 28V with a jumper selectable output voltage

from 0.6V to 5V. The rated load current is 12A, although

derating is necessary for certain VIN, VOUT and thermal

conditions. The PLLIN pin supports synchronizing the

μModule

regulator to an external clock. The TRACK/SS

pin allows the user to program output ramp-up and ramp-

down rates which may coincidentally or ratiometrically

of ±5% from the nominal value is available via the margin

control pins MARG0 and MARG1. The LTM4601AHV data

QUICK START PROCEDURE

Demonstration circuit 1414B-B is easy to set up to evalu-

ate the performance of the LTM4601AHVEV. Please refer

to Figure 1 for proper measurement equipment setup and

follow the procedure below:

1. Place jumpers in the following positions for a typical

1.5VOUT application:

MARG0 MARG1 RUN VOUT SELECT

LO LO ON 1.5V

2. With power off, connect the input power supply, load

and meters as shown in Figure 1. Preset the load to 0A

and VIN supply to be less than 20V.

3. Turn on the power at the input. The output voltage

should be 1.5V ±1%.

4. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust

the load within the operating range and observe the

output voltage regulation, ripple voltage, efficiency and

other parameters. Output ripple should be measured at

J4 with a BNC cable.

5. For optional load transient test, apply adjustable pulse

signal between IOSTEP CLK and GND pins. Pulse am-

plitude sets the current step. The pulse signal should

have very small duty cycle (<15%) to limit the thermal

stress on the transient load circuit. The output transient

currentcanbemonitoredatBNCconnectorJ3(10mV/A).

6. For Margining function test, place jumper MARG0 and

MARG1 in the configurations shown in the following

table, measure the output voltage at J4.
