DESCRIPTION

LTM4649EY

10A Step-Down µModule

Regulator

Demonstration circuit 1856A-B features the LT M

4649EY

µModule

regulator, a high performance, high efficiency

step-down regulator. The LTM4649EY has an operating

input voltage range of 4.5V to 16V and is able to provide

an output current of up to 10A. The output voltage is pro-

grammable from 0.6V to 5V and can be remotely sensed

with the internal differential remote sensing amplifier. The

LTM4649EY is a complete DC/DCpoint-of-load regulator in

a thermally enhanced 15mm ×9mm ×5.01mm BGA pack-

age requiring onlya few input andoutput capacitors. Output

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

BOARD PHOTO

voltage tracking is available through the TRACK/SS pin for

supply rail sequencing. External clock synchronization is

also available through the CLKIN pin. The LTM4649 data

sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual

prior to working on or modifying demo circuit 1856A-B.

QUICK START PROCEDURE

Figure 1. Test Setup of DC1856A-B

Demonstration circuit 1856A-B is an easy way to evaluate

the performance of the LTM4649EY. Please refer to Figure 1

for test setup connections and follow the procedure below.

1. With power off, place the jumpers in the following

positions for a typical 1.8VOUT application:

JP8 JP7 JP9 JP2

TRACK/SS RUN MODE VOUT Select

SS ON CCM 1.8V

2. Before connecting input supply, load and meters, preset

the input voltage supply to be between 4.5V to 16V.

Preset the load current to 0A.

3. With power off, connect the load, input voltage supply

and meters as shown in Figure 1.

4. Turn on input power supply. The output voltage meter

should display the selected output voltage ±2%.

5. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust

the load current within the 0A to 10A range and observe

the load regulation, efficiency, and other parameters.

Output voltage ripple should be measured at J6 with a

BNC cable and oscilloscope.

6. To observe increased light load efficiency place the

Mode pin jumper (JP9) in the Burst Mode

position. To

observe increased light load efficiency with a reduced

output ripple ascompared to BurstMode operation place

the Mode pin jumper in the pulse-skipping position.

7. For optional load transient testing apply an adjustable

positive pulse signal between IOSTEP CLK and GND

pins. The pulse amplitude sets the load step current

amplitude. The pulse width should be short (<1ms)

and pulse duty cycle should be low (<15%) to limit the

thermal stress on the load transient circuit. The load

step current can be monitored with a BNC connected

to J5 (10mV/A).

Note: To evaluate PGOOD pin operation for the LTM4649,

insert a 100k resistor between PGOOD and INTVCC. Do

not stuff R15.
