The LTM4630-1A/LTM4630-1B are dual 18A or single 36A output step-down μModule®(power module) regulators with ±0.8% (LTM4630-1A) and ±1.5% (LTM4630-1B) total DC output error, respectively, with ±3% transient output error. Included in the package are the switching controller, power FETs, inductors, and all supporting components. External compensation allows for fast transient response to minimize output capacitance when powering FPGAs, ASICs, and processors. With synchronized multiphase parallel current sharing, four LTM4630-1 devices can deliver up to 144A. The LTM4630-1 is offered in a 16mm × 16mm × 5.01 BGA package.FeaturesVoutLTM46300.6V to 1.8VLTM4630-10.8% DC and 3% Transient Accuracy0.6V to 1.8VLTM4630AHigher Light Load Efficiency0.6V to 5.3VApplicationsFPGA, ASIC, μProcessor Core Voltage RegulationInformation, Communication Systems

The LTM4631 is a dual 10A or single 20A output switching mode step-down DC/DC μModule®(power module) regulator. Included in the package are the switching controller, power FETs, inductors and all supporting components. Operating from an input voltage range of 4.5V to 15V, the LTM4631 supports two outputs each with an output voltage range of 0.6V to 1.8V, each set by a single external resistor. Its high efficiency design delivers up to 10A continuous current for each output. Only a few input and output capacitors are needed.The device supports frequency synchronization, multiphase operation, Burst Mode operation and output voltage tracking for supply rail sequencing and has an onboard temperature diode for device temperature monitoring. High switching frequency and a current mode architecture enable a very fast transient response to line and load changes without sacrificing stability.Fault protection features include overvoltage and overcurrent protection. The LTM4631 is offered in an ultrathin 16mm × 16mm × 1.91mm LGA and 16mm x 16mm x 2.51mm BGA packages. The LTM4631 is available with SnPb (BGA) or ROHS compliant terminal finish.ApplicationsTelecom and Networking EquipmentStorage and ATCA CardsIndustrial Equipment

The LTM4636-1 is a 40A step-down μModule®(power module) switching regulator with stacked inductor as a heat sink for heat dissipation and cooler operation in a small package. The LTM4636-1 detects overtemperature and input/output overvoltage conditions and can trip an upstream power supply or circuit breaker to protect itself and its load. The exposed inductor as a heat sink permits direct contact with airflow from any direction. The LTM4636-1 can deliver 40W (12VIN, 1VOUT, 40A, 200LFM) with only 40°C rise over the ambient temperature. Full-power 40W is delivered up to 83°C ambient and half-power 20W is supported at 110°C ambient.The LTM4636-1 operates at 92%, 90% and 88% efficiency delivering 15A, 30A and 40A, respectively, to a 1V load (12VIN). The μModule regulator is scalable where four in current sharing deliver 160W with only 40°C rise and 88% efficiency (12VIN, 1VOUT, 400LFM). The LTM4636-1 is offered in 16mm × 16mm × 7.07mm BGA package.NotesLTM4636Simpler circuits and fewer featuresLTM4636-1Extra internal circuitry for detecting overtemperature and input/output overvoltage conditionsAPPLICATIONSTelecom Servers and Networking EquipmentIndustrial Equipment and Medical Systems

The LTM4637 is a complete 20A output high efficiency switch mode step-down DC/DC μModule (power module) regulator. Included in the package are the switching controller, power FETs, inductor and compensation components. Operating over an input voltage range from 4.5V to 20V, the LTM4637 supports an output voltage range of 0.6V to 5.5V, set by a single external resistor. Only a few input and output capacitors are needed.Current mode operation allows precision current sharing of up to four LTM4637 regulators to obtain up to 80A output. High switching frequency and a current mode architecture enable a very fast transient response to line and load changes without sacrificing stability. The device supports frequency synchronization, multiphase/current sharing, Burst Mode operation and output voltage tracking for supply rail sequencing. A diode-connected PNP transistor is available for use as an internal temperature monitor.The LTM4637 is offered in 15mm × 15mm × 4.32mm LGA and 15mm × 15mm × 4.92mm packages. The LTM4637 is available with SnPb (BGA) or RoHS compliant terminal finish. The LTM4637 is pin compatible with the LTM4627, a 15A DC/DC μModule regulator.ApplicationsTelecom Servers and Networking EquipmentIndustrial EquipmentMedical SystemsHigh Ambient Temperature Systems
