DESCRIPTION
The LTM®4608A is a complete 8A switch mode DC/DC power supply with ±1.75% total output voltage error. Included in the package are the switching controller, power FETs, inductor and all support components. Operating over an input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V, Only bulk input and output capacitors are needed to complete the design. The 0.630mm LGA pads with 1.27mm pitch simplify PCB layout by providing standard trace routing and via placement. The high switching frequency and current mode architecture enable a very fast transient response to line and load changes without sacrificing stability. The device supports frequency synchronization, programmable multiphase and/or spread spectrum operation, output voltage tracking for supply rail sequencing and voltage margining. Fault protection features include overvoltage protection, overcurrent protection and thermal shutdown. The power module is offered in a compact and thermally enhanced 15mm × 9mm × 2.8mm surface mount LGA package.
