RUN/SS (Pin F23): Run and Soft-Start Control. Forcing

this pin below 0.8V will shut down the power supply.

Inside the power module, there is a 1000pF capacitor

which provides approximately 0.7ms soft-start time with

200μF output capacitance. Additional soft-start time can

be achieved by adding additional capacitance between the

OPERATION

μModule Description

a 10%windowaroundtheregulationpoint.Furthermore,

in an overvoltage condition, internal top FET Q1 is turned

off and bottom FET Q2 is turned on and held on until the

overvoltage condition clears.

The LTM4600 is a standalone non-isolated synchronous

switching DC/DC power supply. It can deliver up to 10A of

DC output current with only bulk external input and output

capacitors. This module provides a precisely regulated

outputvoltageprogrammableviaoneexternalresistorfrom

Pulling the RUN/SS pin low forces the controller into its

shutdown state, turning off both Q1 and Q2. Releasing

the pin allows an internal 1.2μA current source to charge

up the softstart capacitor. When this voltage reaches 1.5V,

the controller turns on and begins switching.

0.6V to 5.0V , not to exceed 80% of the input voltage.

DC

The input voltage range is 4.5V to 20V. A simpliﬁed block

diagram is shown in Figure 1 and the typical application

schematic is shown in Figure 18.

At low load current the module works in continuous cur-

rent mode by default to achieve minimum output voltage

ripple. It can be programmed to operate in discontinuous

current mode for improved light load efﬁciency when the

FCB pin is pulled up above 0.8V and no higher than 6V.

The FCB pin has a 4.75k resistor to ground, so a resistor

LTM4600 Frequency Adjustment

The high integration of the LTM4600 makes the PCB board

layoutverysimpleandeasy.However,tooptimizeitselectri-

cal and thermal performance, some layout considerations

are still necessary.

The LTM4600 is designed to typically operate at 850kHz

across most input and output conditions. The control ar-

chitectureisconstantontimevalleymodecurrentcontrol.

The f

pin is typically left open or decoupled with an

ADJ

optional 1000pF capacitor. The switching frequency has

beenoptimizedtomaintainconstantoutputrippleoverthe
