LTM4644/LTM4644-1
Quad DC/DC µModule
Regulator with Configurable 4A Output Array
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
Quad Output Step-Down µModule® Regulator with 4A
per Output
The LTM®4644/LTM4644-1 is a quad DC/DC step-down
µModule (micromodule) regulator with 4A per output.
Outputs can be paralleled in an array for up to 16A capabil-
ity. Included in the package are the switching controllers,
powerFETs,inductorsandsupportcomponents.Operating
over an input voltage range of 4V to 14V or 2.375V to 14V
with an external bias supply, the LTM4644/LTM4644-1
supports an output voltage range of 0.6V to 5.5V. Its
high efficiency design delivers 4A continuous (5A peak)
output current per channel. Only bulk input and output
capacitors are needed.

Switching Mode Regulator Channel. Allows the user to
control the rise time of the output voltage. Putting a volt-
age below 0.6V on this pin bypasses the internal reference
input to the error amplifier, instead it servos the FB pin
to match the TRACK voltage. Above 0.6V, the tracking
function stops and the internal reference resumes control
of the error amplifier. There’s an internal 2.5µA pull-up

regulator channel. Do not leave floating.

tion of the Module. The phase of CLKOUT with respect to
CLKIN is set to 180°. CLKOUT’s peak-to-peak amplitude

COMP1, COMP2, COMP3, COMP4 (B7, E7, H7, L7): Cur-
rent Control Threshold and Error Amplifier Compensation
Point of Each Switching Mode Regulator Channel. The
internal current comparator threshold is proportional to
thisvoltage. Tie theCOMPpinstogetherforparallelopera-
tion. The device is internally compensated.
SGND(F7):SignalGroundConnection.SGNDisconnected
to GND internally through single point. Use a separated
SGND ground copper area for the ground of the feedback
resistor and other components connected to signal pins.
A second connection between the PGND plane and SGND
plane is recommended on the backside of the PCB under-
neath the module.
CLKIN (C7): External Synchronization Input to Phase
Detector of the Module. This pin is internally terminated
to SGND with 20kΩ. The phase-locked loop will force
the channel 1 turn-on signal to be synchronized with the
rising edge of the CLKIN signal. Channel 2, channel 3 and
channel 4 will also be synchronized with the rising edge of
the CLKIN signal with a pre-determined phase shift. See
the Applications Information section for details.
TEMP (F3): Onboard Temperature Diode for Monitoring
the VBE Junction Voltage Change with Temperature. See
the Applications Information section.

OPERATION
The LTM4644 is a quad output standalone non-isolated

is more than flexible in a multirail POL application like
FPGA. Furthermore, the LTM4644 has CLKIN and CLK-
OUT pins for frequency synchronization or polyphasing
multiple devices which allow up to 8 phases cascaded to
run simultaneously.
Current mode control also provides cycle-by-cycle fast
current monitoring. Foldback current limiting is provided

comparators pull the open-drain PGOOD output low if
the output feedback voltage exits a 10ꢀ window around
the regulation point. Continuous conduction mode (CCM)
operation is forced during OV and UV conditions except
duringstart-upwhentheTRACKpinisrampingupto0.6V.
Pulling the RUN pin below 1.1V forces the controller into
its shutdown state, turning off both power MOSFETs and
most of the internal control circuitry. At light load cur-
rents, discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation
can be enabled to achieve higher efficiency compared to
continuous conduction mode (CCM) by setting the MODE
pin to SGND. The TRACK/SS pin is used for power supply
trackingandsoft-startprogramming.SeetheApplications
Information section.
With current mode control and internal feedback loop
compensation, the LTM4644 module has sufficient stabil-
ity margins and good transient performance with a wide
range of output capacitors, even with all ceramic output
capacitors.
Current mode control provides the flexibility of paralleling
any of the separate regulator channels with accurate cur-
rent sharing. With a built-in clock interleaving between
each two regulator channels, the LTM4644 could easily

force the top MOSFET to stay off for several cycles, thus
skipping cycles. The inductor current does not reverse
in this mode.
The LTM4644 module should be connected to a low ac-
impedance DC source. For each regulator channel, a 10µF

Operating Frequency
The operating frequency of the LTM4644 is optimized to

operating frequency is internally set to 1MHz. In most ap-
plications, no additional frequency adjusting is required.
If any operating frequency other than 1MHz is required
by application, the µModule regulator can be externally
synchronized to a clock from 700kHz to 1.3MHz.
Frequency Synchronization and Clock In
The power module has a phase-locked loop comprised
of an internal voltage controlled oscillator and a phase
detector. This allows all internal top MOSFET turn-on to
be locked to the rising edge of the same external clock.
The external clock frequency range must be within 30ꢀ
around the 1MHz set frequency. A pulse detection circuit
is used to detect a clock on the CLKIN pin to turn on the
phase-locked loop. The pulse width of the clock has to
be at least 400ns. The clock high level must be above 2V
and clock low level below 0.3V. During the start-up of
the regulator, the phase-locked loop function is disabled.

Multichannel Parallel Operation
A multiphase power supply significantly reduces the
amount of ripple current in both the input and output ca-
pacitors. The RMS input ripple current is reduced by, and
the effective ripple frequency is multiplied by, the number
of phases used (assuming that the input voltage is greater
thanthenumberofphasesusedtimestheoutputvoltage).
Theoutputrippleamplitudeisalsoreducedbythenumber
of phases used when all of the outputs are tied together
to achieve a single high output current design.
For loads that demand more than 4A of output current,
the LTM4644 multiple regulator channels can be easily
paralleled to provide more output current without increas-
ing input and output voltage ripples. The LTM4644 has
preset built-in phase shift between each two of the four
regulator channels which is suitable to employ a 2+2, 3+1
or 4 channels parallel operation. Table 2 gives the phase
difference between regulator channels.
The LTM4644 device is an inherently current mode con-
trolled device, so parallel modules will have very good
current sharing. This will balance the thermals on the
design. Please tie the RUN, TRACK/SS, FB and COMP
pins of each paralleling channel together. Figure 35 and
Figure 36 shows an example of parallel operation and pin
connection.

The TRACK/SS pin provides a means to either soft-start
of each regulator channel or track it to a different power
supply. A capacitor on the TRACK/SS pin will program the
ramp rate of the output voltage. An internal 2.5µA current
source will charge up the external soft-start capacitor

There may be situations that require the power supply to
start up with some charge on the output capacitors. The
LTM4644 can safely power up into a pre-biased output
without discharging it.
TheLTM4644accomplishesthisbyforcingdiscontinuous
mode (DCM) operation until the TRACK/SS pin voltage
reaches 0.6V reference voltage. This will prevent the BG
from turning on during the pre-biased output start-up
which would discharge the output.

Layout Checklist/Example
• To minimizetheviaconductionlossandreducemodule
thermal stress, use multiple vias for interconnection
between top layer and other power layers.
The high integration of LTM4644 makes the PCB board
layout very simple and easy. However, to optimize its
electrical and thermal performance, some layout consid-
erations are still necessary.
• Do not put via directly on the pad, unless they are
capped or plated over.
• Use large PCB copper areas for high current paths,
• Use a separated SGND ground copper area for com-
ponents connected to signal pins. Connect the SGND
to GND underneath the unit.
