2.8mm LGA package. The LTM4601AHV
LGA package is designed with redundant mounting pads
to enhance solder-joint strength for extended temperature
cycling endurance. Operating over an input voltage range
of 4.5 to 28V, the LTM4601AHV supports an output volt-
age range of 0.6V to 5V as well as output voltage tracking
and margining. The high efficiency design delivers 12A
continuous current (14A peak). Only bulk input and output
capacitors are needed to complete the design.
The low profile (2.8mm) and light weight (1.7g) pack-
age easily mounts in unused space on the back side of
PC boards for high density point of load regulation. The
μModule can be synchronized with an external clock for
reducing undesirable frequency harmonics and allows
PolyPhase
®
operation for high load currents.
An onboard differential remote sense amplifier can be
used to accurately regulate an output voltage independent
of load current.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
The LTM4601AHVE is guaranteed to meet performance
specifications from 0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C
operating temperature range are assured by design, characterization
and correlation with statistical process controls. The LTM4601AHVI is
guaranteed and tested over the –40°C to 85°C temperature range. The
LTM4601AHVMP is guaranteed and tested over the –55°C to 125°C
temperature range. For output current derating at high temperature, please
refer to Thermal Considerations and Output Current Derating discussion.
Note 3:
Remote sense amplifier recommended for ≤3.3V output.
Note 4:
100% tested at wafer level only.
Note 5:
