APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Fault Conditions: Current Limit and Overcurrent
Foldback
The LTM4615 has current mode control, which inher-
ently limits the cycle-by-cycle inductor current not only
in steady-state operation, but also in transient.
Along with foldback current limiting in the event of an
overload condition, the LTM4615 has overtemperature
shutdown protection that inhibits switching operation
around 150°C for each channel.
Run Enable and Soft-Start
The RUN/SS pins provide a dual function of enable and
soft-start control for each channel. The RUN/SS pins are
used to control turn on of the LTM4615. While each enable
pin is below 0.5V, the LTM4615 will be in a low quiescent
current state. At least a 0.8V level applied to the enable
pins will turn on the LTM4615 regulators. This pin can be
used to sequence the regulator channels. The soft-start
control is provided by a 1M pull-up resistor (R
1000pF capacitor (C
each channel. An external capacitor can be applied to the
RUN/SS pin to increase the soft-start time. A typical value
is 0.01μF . The approximate equation for soft-start:

where R
Figure 1, and the 1.8V is soft-start upper range. The
soft-start function can also be used to control the output
ramp-up time, so that another regulator can be easily
tracked to it.
Output Voltage Tracking
Output voltage tracking can be programmed externally
using the TRACK pins. Either output can be tracked up
or down with another regulator. The master regulator’s
output is divided down with an external resistor divider
that is the same as the slave regulator’s feedback divider to
implement coincident tracking. The LTM4615 uses a very
accurate 4.99k resistor for the internal top feedback resistor.
Figure 2 shows an example of coincident tracking.
