Key Differentiators
- Highest output current in the LTM46xx family (vs LTM4630EY#PBF)
- Pin-compatible with LTM4620 and LTM4630 (vs LTM4620EY#PBF)
- Integrated inductors and FETs (vs Discrete buck converter solutions)
Design Notes
The LTM4650EY#PBF can dissipate significant power at high currents. Ensure adequate PCB copper area and thermal vias under the BGA package to keep the junction temperature within limits. The datasheet provides derating curves for output current vs. ambient temperature. For 50A operation, consider forced airflow or a heatsink to maintain reliability.
Place input and output capacitors close to the module pins to minimize parasitic inductance. Use low-ESR ceramic capacitors as specified in the datasheet. For high-current paths, use wide traces or copper pours to reduce resistance and voltage drops. Follow the recommended layout in the datasheet for optimal performance.
Do not exceed the maximum input voltage of 15V. Ensure the output voltage setting resistors are accurate (1% or better) to maintain regulation. When paralleling outputs, follow the datasheet's current sharing guidelines. Also, verify the operating temperature range: the E-grade is specified from 0°C to 125°C internal; for -40°C operation, use the I-grade version.
