LTM4602

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

The typical LTM4602 application circuit is shown in Fig-

ure 21. External component selection is primarily deter-

mined by the maximum load current and output voltage.

Output Voltage Programming and Margining

The PWM controller of the LTM4602 has an internal

0.6V reference voltage. As shown in the block diagram,

a 100k/0.5% internal feedback resistor connects VOUT

and VOSET pins. Adding a resistor RSET from VOSET pin to

SGND pin programs the output voltage:

for typical output voltages:

Voltage margining is the dynamic adjustment of the output

voltage to its worst case operating range in production

testing to stress the load circuitry, verify control/protec-

tion functionality of the board and improve the system

reliability. Figure 2 shows how to implement margining

function with the LTM4602. In addition to the feedback

resistor RSET, several external components are added.

Turn off both transistor QUP and QDOWN to disable the

margining. When QUP is on and QDOWN is off, the output

voltage is margined up. The output voltage is margined

down when QDOWN is on and QUP is off. If the output

Input Capacitors

The LTM4602 μModule should be connected to a low

AC-impedance DC source. High frequency, low ESR input

capacitors are required to be placed adjacent to the mod-

ule. In Figure 21, the bulk input capacitor CIN is selected

for its ability to handle the large RMS current into the

converter. For a buck converter, the switching duty cycle

can be estimated as:

Without considering the inductor current ripple, the RMS

current of the input capacitor can be estimated as:

In the above equation, η% is the estimated efficiency of

the power module. C1 can be a switcher-rated electrolytic

aluminum capacitor, OS-CON capacitor or high volume

ceramic capacitors. Note the capacitor ripple current

ratings are often based on only 2000 hours of life. This

makes it advisable to properly derate the input capacitor,

or choose a capacitor rated at a higher temperature than

required. Always contact the capacitor manufacturer for

derating requirements.

In Figure 21, the input capacitors are used as high frequency

input decoupling capacitors. In a typical 6A output applica-

tion, 1-2 pieces of very low ESR X5R or X7R, 10μF ceramic

capacitors are recommended. This decoupling capacitor

should be placed directly adjacent the module input pins

in the PCB layout to minimize the trace inductance and

high frequency AC noise.
