... V IN OUT OPERATION The LTM4608A is a standalone nonisolated switch mode DC/DC power supply. It can deliver output current with few external input and output capacitors. This module provides precisely regulated output voltage programmable via one external resistor from 0. 5.0V DC over a 2.4V to 5.5V input voltage. The typical application schematic is shown in Figure 18 ...

... phases can be cascaded to run simultaneously with respect to each other by programming the PHMODE pin to different levels. The LTM4608A has clock in and clock out for poly phasing multiple devices or frequency synchronization. High effi ciency at light loads can be accomplished with selectable Burst Mode operation using the MODE pin ...

... In applications where low output ripple and high effi ciency at intermediate currents are desired, pulse-skipping mode should be used. Pulse-skipping operation allows the LTM4608A to skip cycles at low output loads, thus increas- ing effi ciency by reducing switching loss. Floating the MODE pin or tying This allows discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) opera- tion down to near the limit defi ...

... Multiphase Operation For output loads that demand more than 8A of current, TH multiple LTM4608As can be cascaded to run out of phase to provide more output current without increasing input and output voltage ripples. The CLKIN pin allows the LTM4608A to synchronize to an external clock (between 0.75MHz and 2.25MHz) and the internal phase locked ...
