10A, 28V

High Efficiency
DC/DC µModule
DESCRIPTIO
The LTM
®
4600HV is a complete 10A, DC/DC step down
power supply with up to 28V input operation. Included
in the package are the switching controller, power FETs,
inductor, and all support components. Operating over
an input voltage range of 4.5V to 28V, the LTM4600HV
supports an output voltage range of 0.6V to 5V, set by a
single resistor. This high efficiency design delivers 10A
continuous current (12A peak), needing no heat sinks or
airflow to meet power specifications. Only bulk input and
output capacitors are needed to finish the design.
The low profile package (2.8mm) enables utilization of
unused space on the bottom of PC boards for high density
point of load regulation. High switching frequency and an
adaptive on-time current mode architecture enables a very
fast transient response to line and load changes without
sacrificing stability. Fault protection features include
integrated overvoltage and short circuit protection with
a defeatable shutdown timer. A built-in soft-start timer is
adjustable with a small capacitor.
The LTM4600HV is packaged in a thermally enhanced,
compact (15mm
×
15mm) and low profile (2.8mm) over-
molded Land Grid Array (LGA) package suitable for auto-
mated assembly by standard surface mount equipment.
The LTM4600HV is Pb-free and RoHS compliant.

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 LTM4600HVE 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 LTM46000HVMP
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:
Refer to current de-rating curves and thermal application note.
Note 4:
Test assumes current derating versus temperature.
