LTM4604 Low Voltage, 4A DC/DC ModuleTM with Tracking FEATURES

DESCRIPTION
The LTM(R)4604 is a complete 4A switch mode DC/DC power supply. Included in the package are the switching controller, power FETs, inductor and all support components. Operating over an input voltage range of 2.375V to 5.5V, the LTM4604 supports an output voltage range of 0.8V to 5V, set by a single resistor. This high efficiency design delivers up to 4A continuous current (5A peak). Only bulk output capacitors are needed to complete the design. The low profile package (2.3mm) enables utilization of unused space on the bottom of PC boards for high density point of load regulation. High switching frequency and a current mode architecture enable a very fast transient response to line and load changes without sacrificing stability. The device supports output voltage tracking for supply rail sequencing. Fault protection features include foldback current protection, thermal shutdown and a programmable soft-start function. The LTM4604 is offered in a space saving and thermally enhanced 15mm x 9mm x 2.3mm LGA package and is Pb free and RoHS compliant.

When the module is configured as a master output, then a soft-start capacitor is placed on the RUN/SS pin to ground to control the master ramp rate. Slave operation is performed by putting a resistor divider from the master output to ground, and connecting the center point of the divider to this pin on the slave regulator. If tracking is not desired, then connect the TRACK pin to VIN. Load current must be present for tracking. See Applications Information section. FB (G2): The Negative Input of the Error Amplifier. Internally, this pin is connected to VOUT with a 4.99k precision resistor. Different output voltages can be programmed with an additional resistor between FB and GND pins. Two power modules can current share when this pin is connected in parallel with the adjacent module's FB pin. See Applications Information section. COMP (G1): Current Control Threshold and Error Amplifier Compensation Point. The current comparator threshold increases with this control voltage. Two power modules can current share when this pin is connected in parallel with the adjacent module's COMP pin. PGOOD (F1): Output Voltage Power Good Indicator. Opendrain logic output that is pulled to ground when the output voltage is not within 7.5% of the regulation point. RUN/SS (D1): Run Control and Soft-Start Pin. A voltage above 0.8V will turn on the module, and below 0.5V will turn off the module. This pin has a 1M resistor to VIN and a 1000pF capacitor to GND.

LTM4604 OPERATION
Power Module Description The LTM4604 is a standalone non-isolated switch mode DC/DC power supply. It can deliver up to 4A of DC output current with few external input and output capacitors. This module provides a precise regulated output voltage programmable via one external resistor from 0.8V DC to 5.0V DC over a 2.375V to 5.5V input voltage. A typical application schematic is shown in Figure 15. The LTM4604 has an integrated constant frequency current mode regulator with built-in power MOSFETs with fast switching speed. The typical switching frequency is 1.25MHz. With current mode control and internal feedback loop compensation, the LTM4604 module has sufficient stability margins and good transient performance under a wide range of operating conditions and with a wide range of output capacitors, even all ceramic output capacitors. Current mode control provides cycle-by-cycle fast current limit. In addition, foldback current limiting is provided in an overcurrent condition while VOUT drops. Internal overvoltage and undervoltage comparators pull the opendrain PGOOD output low if the output feedback voltage exits a 7.5% window around the regulation point. Furthermore, in an overvoltage condition, internal top FET M1 is turned off and bottom FET M2 is turned on and held on until the overvoltage condition clears. Pulling the RUN pin below 0.5V forces the controller into its shutdown state, turning off both M1 and M2. At low load current, the module works in continuous current mode by default to achieve minimum output voltage ripple. The TRACK pin is used for power supply tracking. See the Applications Information section. The LTM4604 is internally compensated to be stable over a wide operating range. Table 4 provides a guideline for input and output capacitance for several operating conditions. An excel loop analysis tool is provided for transient and stability analysis. The FB pin is used to program the output voltage with a single resistor connected to ground.

LTM4604 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
A typical LTM4604 application circuit is shown in Figure 15. External component selection is primarily determined by the maximum load current and output voltage. Refer to Table 4 for specific external capacitor requirements for a particular application. VIN to VOUT Step-Down Ratios There are restrictions in the maximum VIN and VOUT stepdown ratio that can be achieved for a given input voltage. The LTM4604 is 100% duty cycle, but the VIN to VOUT minimum dropout is a function of the load current. A typical 0.5V minimum is sufficient (see Typical Performance Characteristics). Output Voltage Programming The PWM controller has an internal 0.8V reference voltage. As shown in the Block Diagram, a 4.99k, 0.5% internal feedback resistor connects the VOUT and FB pins together. The output voltage will default to 0.8V with no feedback resistor. Adding a resistor RFB from the FB pin to GND programs the output voltage: VOUT = 0.8 V * 4.99k + RFB RFB Without considering the inductor current ripple, the RMS current of the input capacitor can be estimated as: ICIN(RMS) = IOUT(MAX ) % * D * (1 - D)
In the above equation, % is the estimated efficiency of the power module. The bulk capacitor can be a switcherrated electrolytic aluminum capacitor, OS-CON capacitor for bulk input capacitance due to high inductance traces or leads. If a low inductance plane is used to power the device, then no input capacitance is required. The two internal 10F ceramics are typically rated for 2A to 3A of RMS ripple current. The worst-case ripple current for the 4A maximum current is 2A or less. Output Capacitors The LTM4604 is designed for low output voltage ripple. The bulk output capacitors defined as COUT are chosen with low enough effective series resistance (ESR) to meet the output voltage ripple and transient requirements. COUT can be a low ESR tantalum capacitor, a low ESR polymer capacitor or an X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor. The typical output capacitance range is 22F to 100F. Additional output filtering may be required by the system designer if further reduction of output ripple or dynamic transient spike is required. Table 4 shows a matrix of different output voltages and output capacitors to minimize the voltage droop and overshoot during a 2A/s transient. The table optimizes the total equivalent ESR and total bulk capacitance to maximize transient performance. The Linear Technology Module Power Design Tool can be for further optimization. Fault Conditions: Current Limit and Overcurrent Foldback The LTM4604 has current mode control, which inherently limits the cycle-by-cycle inductor current not only in steady-state operation, but also in transient. To further limit current in the event of an overload condition, the LTM4604 provides foldback current limiting as the output voltage falls. The LTM4604 device has overtemperature shutdown protection that inhibits switching operation around 150C.

Input Capacitors The LTM4604 module should be connected to a low acimpedance DC source. Two 10F ceramic capacitors are included inside the module. Additional input capacitors are only needed if a large load step is required up to a full 4A level. An input 47F bulk capacitor is only needed if the input source impedance is compromised by long inductive leads or traces. For a buck converter, the switching duty cycle can be estimated as: D= VOUT VIN

LTM4604 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Run Enable and Soft-Start The RUN/SS pin provides dual functions of enable and soft-start control. The RUN/SS pin is used to control turn on of the LTM4604. While this pin is below 0.5V, the LTM4604 will be in a 7A low quiescent current state. A 0.8V threshold will enable the LTM4604. This pin can be used to sequence LTM4604 devices. The soft-start control is provided by a 1M pull-up resistor (RSS) and a 1000pF capacitor (CSS) as drawn in the Block Diagram. An external capacitor can be applied to the RUN/SS pin to increase the soft-start time. A typical value is 0.01F. The approximate equation for soft-start is: VIN t SOFTSTART = ln * RSS (CSS + CSSEXT ) VIN - 1.8 V where RSS and CSS are shown in the Block Diagram of Figure 1, 1.8V is the soft-start upper range, and CSSEXT is the additional capacitance for further soft-start contol. The soft-start function can also be used to control the output ramp-up time, so that another regulator can be easily tracked. An independent ramp control signal can be applied to the master ramp, otherwise, connect the TRACK pin to VIN to disable tracking. Output Voltage Tracking Output voltage tracking can be programmed externally using the TRACK pin. The output can be tracked up and down with another regulator. The master regulator's output is divided down with an external resistor divider that is the same as the slave regulator's feedback divider to implement coincident tracking. The LTM4604 uses a very accurate 4.99k resistor for the top feedback resistor. Figure 2 shows an example of coincident tracking. VTRACK = RFB2 *V 4.99k + RFB2 MASTER

VTRACK is the track ramp applied to the slave's TRACK pin. VTRACK applies the track reference for the slave output up to the point of the programmed value at which VTRACK proceeds beyond the 0.8V reference value. The VTRACK pin must go beyond 0.8V to ensure the slave output has reached its final value. Load current must be present for proper tracking.

LTM4604 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Ratio metric modes of tracking can be achieved by selecting different resistor values to change the output tracking ratio. The master output must be greater than the slave output for the tracking to work. Linear Technology Tracker Cad26 can be used to implement different tracking scenarios. The Master and Slave data inputs can be used to implement the correct resistor values for coincident or ratio tracking. The master and slave regulators require load current for tracking down. Power Good The PGOOD pin is an open-drain pin that can be used to monitor valid output voltage regulation. This pin monitors a 7.5% window around the regulation point. COMP Pin The pin is the external compensation pin. The module has already been internally compensated for all output voltages. Table 4 is provided for most application requirements. A spice model will be provided for other control loop optimizations. Parallel Operation The LTM4604 device is an inherently current mode controlled device. Parallel modules will have very good current sharing. This will balance the thermals on the design. Figure 16 shows a schematic of the parallel design. The voltage feedback changes with the variable N as more modules are paralleled. The equation: 4.99k + RFB = 0.8 V * N RFB
VOUT
N is the number of paralleled modules. Thermal Considerations and Output Current Derating The power loss curves in Figures 4 and 5 can be used in coordination with the load derating curves in Figures 6 through 13 for calculating an approximate JA for the module with and without heat sinking methods with various airflow conditions. Thermal models are derived from several temperature measurements at the bench, and are correlated with thermal analysis software. Tables 2 and 3 provide a summary of the equivalent JA for the noted conditions. These equivalent JA parameters are correlated to the measured values and improve with air flow. The maximum junction temperature is monitored while the derating curves are derived.

LTM4604 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Safety Considerations The LTM4604 modules do not provide isolation from VIN to VOUT. There is no internal fuse. If required, a slow blow fuse with a rating twice the maximum input current needs to be provided to protect each unit from catastrophic failure. Layout Checklist/Example The high integration of LTM4604 makes the PCB board layout very simple and easy. However, to optimize its electrical and thermal performance, some layout considerations are still necessary. * Use large PCB copper areas for high current path, including VIN, GND and VOUT. It helps to minimize the PCB conduction loss and thermal stress. * Place high frequency ceramic input and output capacitors next to the VIN, GND and VOUT pins to minimize high frequency noise. * Place a dedicated power ground layer underneath the unit. * To minimize the via conduction loss and reduce module thermal stress, use multiple vias for interconnection between top layer and other power layers.
VIN
* Do not put vias directly on the pads unless they are capped. * SW pads can be soldered to board to improve thermal performance. Figure14 gives a good example of the recommended layout.
