Key Differentiators
- Integrated inductors and FETs in a compact LGA package (vs Discrete DC-DC solutions)
- Quad outputs with 3A each, parallelable to 12A (vs LTM4644IY#PBF)
- Industrial temperature grade (-40C to +125C) (vs LTM4643EY#PBF)
Design Notes
For optimal thermal performance, use a multi-layer PCB with a solid ground plane and thermal vias under the LTM4643's exposed pad. The datasheet recommends a minimum of 4 layers with 2oz copper for high-current applications. Ensure adequate copper area for heat spreading to keep the junction temperature within limits.
Select input and output capacitors according to the datasheet guidelines. Typically, use 100uF ceramic capacitors for input and 100uF for each output. The module's internal compensation allows stable operation with a wide range of output capacitors, but following the recommended values ensures optimal transient response.
When paralleling outputs for higher current, ensure all outputs are connected together and use the TRACK pin for proper current sharing. Do not exceed the maximum input voltage of 20V. Also, verify that the total power dissipation does not exceed the module's thermal rating; use the efficiency curves in the datasheet to estimate losses.
Compliance Information
