Description

LTM4650-1

High Efficiency, Single 50A or Dual 25A

Step-Down Power µModule Regulator

Demonstration circuit DC2378A-B features the

LT M

4650EY-1, the high efficiency, high density, dual

25A, single 50A, switch mode step-down power module

regulator. The input voltage isfrom4.5Vto15V. The output

voltage is programmable from 0.6V to 1.8V. DC2378A-B

can deliver 25A maximum current from each channel. As

explained in the data sheet, output current derating is nec-

essary for certain VIN, VOUT, and thermal conditions. The

board operates in continuous conduction mode in heavy

loadconditions. For highefficiency atlowloadcurrents, the

MODE jumper(JP1) selects pulse-skipping mode for noise

sensitive applications or Burst Mode

operation in less

noisesensitiveapplications. Tw o outputs can be connected

in parallel for a single 50A output solution with optional

jumper resistors. The board allows the user to program L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology, the Linear logo and Burst Mode are registered trademarks

how its output ramps up and down through the TRACK/

SS pin. The output can be set up to either coincidentally or

ratiometrically track with another supply’s output. Remote

output voltage sensing is available for improved output

voltage regulation at the load point. These features and

the availability of the LTM4650EY-1 in a compact 15mm

×15mm × 5.01mm BGA package make it ideal for use in

many high density point-of-load regulation applications.

The LTM4650-1 data sheet must be read in conjunction

with this demo manual for working on or modifying the

demo circuit DC2378A-B.

Quick start proceDure

Demonstration circuit DC2378A-B is easy to set up to

evaluate the performance of the LTM4650EY-1. Please

refer to Figure 2 for proper measurement setup and follow

the procedure below:

1. Place jumpers in the following positions for a typical

application:

JP1 JP2 JP3 JP4 JP5

MODE RUN1 RUN2 TRACK1

SEL.

TRACK2

SEL.

CCM ON ON SOFT-

START

SOFT-

START

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

and meters as shown in Figure 2. Preset the load to 0A

and VIN supply to 12V.

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

voltage in channel 1 should be 1.5V±1.5% (1.4775V

~ 1.5225V) and the output voltage in channel 2 should

be 1V ±1.5% (0.985V ~ 1.015V).

4. Oncetheproperoutputvoltageisestablished,adjustthe

load within the operating range and observe the output

voltage regulation, output voltage ripple, efﬁciency and

other parameters. Output ripple should be measured

at J1 and J2 with BNC cables. 50Ω termination should

be set on the oscilloscope or BNC cables.

5. (Optional) For optional load transient test, apply an

adjustable pulse signal between IOSTEP CLK and GND

test point. Pulse amplitude (3V~ 3.5V) sets the load

step current amplitude. The output transient current

can be monitored at the BNC connector J3 (10mV/A).

The pulse signal should have very small duty cycle (<

1%) to limit the thermal stress on the transient load

circuit. Switch the jumper resistors R34 or R35 (on the

backside of boards) to apply load transient on channel

1 or channel 2 correspondingly.

6. (Optional) LTM4650-1 can be synchronized to an

external clock signal. Place the JP1 jumper on EXT_CLK

and apply a clock signal (0V~ 5V, square wave) on the

CLKIN test point.

7. (Optional) The outputs of LTM4650-1 can track another

supply. The jumpers JP4 and JP5 allow choosing soft-

start or output tracking. If tracking external voltage is

selected, the corresponding test points, TRACK1 and

TRACK2, need to be connected to a valid voltage signal.

8. (Optional) LTM4650-1 can be conﬁgured for a 2-phase

single output at up to 50A on DC2378A-B. Install 0Ω

resistors on R14, R17, R28, R39, R43, R44, R45 and

remove R7, R19. Output voltage is set by R25 based

on equation VOUT = 0.6V(1 + 60.4k/R25).
