Description
The LTM®4676A is a dual 13A or single 26A step-down µModule® (micromodule) DC/DC regulator with 70ms turn-on time. It Features remote configurability and telemetry-monitoring of power management parameters over PMBus- an open standard I2C-based digital interface protocol . The LTM4676A is prised of fast analog control loops, precision mixed-signal circuitry, EEPROM, power MOSFETs, inductors and supporting ponents. The LTM4676A’s 2-wire serial interface allows outputs to be margined, tuned and ramped up and down at programmable slew rates with sequencing delay times. Input and output currents and voltages, output power, temperatures, uptime and peak values are readable. At start-up, output voltages, switching frequency, and channel phase angle assignments can be set by pin-strapping resistors. The LTpower Play™ GUI and DC1613 USB-to-PMBus...
