over the 0°C to 125°C internal operating temperature range. Specifications  
over the full –40°C to 125°C internal operating temperature range are  
assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical process  
controls. The LTM4661I is guaranteed to meet specifications over the  
full –40°C to 125°C internal operating temperature range. Note that the  
maximum ambient temperature consistent with these specifications is  
determined by specific operating conditions in conjunction with board  
layout, the rated package thermal resistance and other environmental  
factors.  
Note 7: 100% tested at wafer level.  
Note 8: The LTM4661 includes overtemperature protection that is intended  
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction  
temperature will exceed 170°C when overtemperature shutdown is active.  
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operation junction  
temperature may result in device degradation or failure.

OPERATION  
The LTM4661 is a dual-phase single-output standalone  
non-isolatedstep-upswitchingmodeDC/DCpowersupply.  
This module provides a precisely regulated output voltage  
programmable via one external resistor from 1.2V to 15V  
and provides up to 4A switch current (see Table 1) with  
few external input and output ceramic capacitors. It also  
offers the unique ability to start up from inputs as low as  
1.8V and continue to operate from inputs as low as 0.7V  
for output voltages greater than 2.5V. The typical applica-  
tion schematic is shown in Figure 17.  
resistors and the µModule regulator can be externally  
synchronized to a clock at least 100ns minimum.  
With current mode control and internal feedback loop  
compensation, the LTM4661 module has sufficient stabil-  
ity margins and good transient performance with a wide  
range of output capacitors, even with all ceramic output  
capacitors.  
Pulling the SDB pin above 1.6V enables module opera-  
tion and forcing it below 0.25V shuts the module off with  
quiescent current below 1µA. At light load currents, Burst

while minimizing the number of external components.  
The LTM4661 contains an integrated fixed frequency, cur-  
rent mode regulator, power MOSFETs, inductor and other  
supporting discrete components. The default switching  
frequency is 1MHz. For switching noise-sensitive applica-  
tions, the switching frequency can be adjusted by external

LTM4661 continues to regulate its output, even when V

falls as low as 0.7V. This feature extends operating times  
by maximizing the amount of energy that can be extracted  
from the input source. The limiting factors for the applica-  
tion become the availability of the power source to supply  
sufficient power to the output at the low input voltage,  
and the maximum duty cycle, which is clamped at 94%.  
Output Voltage Programming  
The PWM controller has an internal 1.2V reference volt-  
age. As shown in the Block Diagram, a 100k 0.5% internal  
feedback resistor connects V

Output Current Capability  
Multiphase Operation  
The LTM4661 is designed to provide up to 4A switch cur-  
rent. Due to the nature of the boost converter, the actually  
output current capability depends highly on the input/  
output voltage ratio. The peak inductor current, same as  
switch current, in a boost converter can be calculated as:  
The LTM4661 uses a unique dual-phase single-output  
architecture, rather than the conventional single phase of  
otherboostconverters.Byinterleavingtwophasesequally  
spaced 180° apart, both input and output current ripple  
get significantly reduced as well as the amount of input  
and output decoupling capacitor required.

until the nominal regulation value is reached, then the  
LTM4661 transitions into a very low quiescent current  
sleep state. In sleep, the output switches are turned off  
and the LTM4661 consumes only 25µA of quiescent  
current. When the output voltage droops approximately  
1%, switching resumes. This maximizes efficiency at  
very light loads by minimizing switching and quiescent  
losses. Output voltage ripple in Burst Mode operation

ꢂhermal Considerations and Output Current Derating  
The thermal resistances reported in the Pin Configuration  
section of the data sheet are consistent with those param-  
eters defined by JESD51-9 and are intended for use with  
finite element analysis (FEA) software modeling tools that  
leveragetheoutcomeofthermalmodeling,simulationand

Thermal Information”).  
3. θ  
, the thermal resistance from junction to top of  
JCtop  
the product case, is determined with nearly all of the  
componentpowerdissipationflowingthroughthetop  
of the package. As the electrical connections of the  
typical µModule are on the bottom of the package, it  
is rare for an application to operate such that most of  
the heat flows from the junction to the top of the part.  
As in the case of θ  
, this value may be useful

Many designers may opt to use laboratory equipment  
and a test vehicle such as the demo board to anticipate  
the µModule regulator’s thermal performance in their ap-

software, the thermal resistances reported in the Pin Con-  
figuration section are in and of themselves not relevant to  
providing guidance of thermal performance; instead, the  
derating curves provided in the data sheet can be used in  
a manner that yields insight and guidance pertaining to  
one’s application usage and can be adapted to correlate  
thermal performance to one’s own application.  
for comparing packages but the test conditions don’t  
generally match the user’s application.  
4. θ , the thermal resistance from junction to the

resistance where almost all of the heat flows through  
the bottom of the µModule and into the board, and  
is really the sum of the θ

sistance of the bottom of the part through the solder  
joints and through a portion of the board. The board  
temperature is measured a specified distance from  
the package, using a two sided, two layer board. This  
board is described in JESD51-9.  
The Pin Configuration section typically gives four thermal  
coefficients explicitly defined in JESD51-12; these coef-  
ficients are quoted or paraphrased below:  
A graphical representation of the aforementioned ther-  
mal resistances is given in Figure 3; blue resistances are  
contained within the µModule regulator, whereas green  
resistances are external to the µModule.

causes the air to move. This value is determined with  
the part mounted to a JESD51-9 defined test board,  
which does not reflect an actual application or viable

As a practical matter, it should be clear to the reader that  
no individual or subgroup of the four thermal resistance  
parameters defined by JESD51-12 or provided in the Pin  
Configuration section replicates or conveys normal op-  
erating conditions of a μModule. For example, in normal

Within a SIP (system-in-package) module, be aware there  
are multiple power devices and components dissipating  
power, with a consequence that the thermal resistances  
relative to different junctions of components or die are not  
exactly linear with respect to total package power loss. To  
reconcile this complication without sacrificing modeling  
simplicity—but also, not ignoring practical realities—an  
approach has been taken using FEA software modeling  
along with laboratory testing in a controlled-environment  
chamber to reasonably define and correlate the thermal  
resistance values supplied in this data sheet: (1) Initially,  
FEA software is used to accurately build the mechanical  
geometry of the µModule and the specified PCB with all  
of the correct material coefficients along with accurate  
power loss source definitions; (2) this model simulates  
a software-defined JEDEC environment consistent with  
JESD51-9topredictpowerlossheatflowandtemperature  
readingsatdifferentinterfacesthatenablethecalculationof  
theJEDEC-definedthermalresistancevalues;(3)themodel  
and FEA software is used to evaluate the µModule with  
heat sink and airflow; (4) having solved for and analyzed  
these thermal resistance values and simulated various  
operating conditions in the software model, a thorough  
laboratory evaluation replicates the simulated conditions  
with thermocouples within a controlled-environment  
togethertocorrelatequitewellwiththeµModulemodelwith  
no airflow or heat sinking in a properly defined chamber.

section and should accurately equal the θ value because  
JA  
approximately 100% of power loss flows from the junc-  
tion through the board into ambient with no airflow or top  
mounted heat sink.  
The 5V, 8V, 12V and 15V output power loss curves in  
Figures 4 to 7 can be used in coordination with the load  
current derating curves in Figures 8 to 14 for calculating  
an approximate θ thermal resistance for the LTM4661  
JA  
with various heat sinking and airflow conditions. The  
power loss curves are taken at room temperature and  
are increased with multiplicative factors according to the  
ambient temperature. These approximate factors is 1.4  
assuming the junction temperature at 110°C. The output  
voltages are chosen to include the lower and higher out-  
put voltage ranges for correlating the thermal resistance.  
Thermal models are derived from several temperature  
measurementsinacontrolledtemperaturechamberalong  
withthermalmodelinganalysis.Thejunctiontemperatures  
are monitored while ambient temperature is increased  
with and without airflow. The power loss increase with  
ambient temperature change is factored into the derating

curves. The junctions are maintained at 110°C maximum  
while lowering output current or power with increasing  
ambient temperature. The decreased output current will  
decrease the internal module loss as ambient temperature  
isincreased.Themonitoredjunctiontemperatureof110°C  
minus the ambient operating temperature specifies how  
much module temperature rise can be allowed. As an ex-  
ample, in Figure 13 the load current is derated to ~0.35A  
at ~80°C with no air or heat sink and the power loss for  
the 3.3V to 15V at 0.35A output is about 1.4W. The 1.4W  
loss is calculated with the ~1.0W room temperature loss  
from the 3.3V to 15V power loss curve at 0.35A, and the  
1.4 multiplying factor. If the 80°C ambient temperature  
is subtracted from the 110°C junction temperature, then  
the difference of 30°C divided by 1.4W equals a 21.4°C/W  
θ
thermal resistance. Table 3 specifies a 21°C/W value  
JA  
which is very close. Table 3 to Table 6 provide equivalent  
thermal resistances for 5V, 8V, 12V and 15V outputs with  
and without airflow and heat sinking. The derived thermal  
resistances in Tables 3 to 6 for the various conditions can  
be multiplied by the calculated power loss as a function  
of ambient temperature to derive temperature rise above  
ambient, thus maximum junction temperature. Room  
temperature power loss can be derived from the efficiency  
curves in the Typical Performance Characteristics section  
and adjusted with the above ambient temperature mul-  
tiplicative factors. The printed circuit board is a 1.6mm  
thick four layer board with two ounce copper for the two  
outer layers and one ounce copper all four layers. The  
PCB dimensions are 65mm × 65mm.
