LTM4602 6A High Effi ciency DC/DC µModule FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Complete Switch Mode Power Supply The LTM®4602 is a complete 6A DC/DC step down power n Wide Input Voltage Range: 4.5V to 20V supply. Included in the package are the switching control- n 6A DC, 8A Peak Output Current ler, power FETs, inductor, and all support components. n 0.6V to 5V Output Voltage Operating over an input voltage range of 4.5V to 20V, the n 1.5% Output Voltage Regulation LTM4602 supports an output voltage range of 0.6V to 5V, n Ultrafast Transient Response set by a single resistor. This high effi ciency design delivers n Current Mode Control 6A continuous current (8A peak), needing no heat sinks or n Pb-Free (e4) RoHS Compliant Package with Gold- airfl ow to meet power specifi cations. Only bulk input and Pad Finish output capacitors are needed to fi nish the design. n Pin Compatible with the LTM4600 The low profi le package (2.8mm) enables utilization of n Up to 92% Effi ciency unused space on the bottom of PC boards for high density n Programmable Soft-Start point of load regulation. High switching frequency and an n Output Overvoltage Protection adaptive on-time current mode architecture enables a very n Optional Short-Circuit Shutdown Timer fast transient response to line and load changes without n See the LTM4602HV for Operation Up to 28VIN sacrifi cing stability. Fault protection features include n Small Footprint, Low Profi le (15mm × 15mm × integrated overvoltage and short circuit protection with 2.8mm) Surface Mount LGA Package a defeatable shutdown timer. A built-in soft-start timer is adjustable with a small capacitor. APPLICATIONS The LTM4602 is packaged in a thermally enhanced, compact n Telecom and Networking Equipment (15mm × 15mm) and low profi le (2.8mm) over-molded n Servers Land Grid Array (LGA) package suitable for automated as- n Industrial Equipment sembly by standard surface mount equipment.
