APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
LTM4602HV
in the PCB layout to minimize the trace inductance and
high frequency AC noise.
Output Capacitors
The LTM4602HV is designed for low output voltage ripple.
The bulk output capacitor C
effective series resistance (ESR) to meet the output voltage
ripple and transient requirements. C
tantalum capacitor, low ESR polymer capacitor or ceramic
capacitor (X5R or X7R). The typical capacitance is 200µF
if all ceramic output capacitors are used. The internally
optimized loop compensation provides suffi cient stability
margin for all ceramic capacitors applications. Additional
output fi ltering may be required by the system designer,
if further reduction of output ripple or dynamic transient
spike is required. Refer to Table 2 for an output capaci-
tance matrix for each output voltage Droop, peak to peak
deviation and recovery time during a 3A/µs transient with
a specifi c output capacitance.
Fault Conditions: Current Limit and Over current
Foldback
The LTM4602HV has a current mode controller, which
inherently limits the cycle-by-cycle inductor current not
only in steady state operation, but also in transient.
To further limit current in the event of an over load condi-
tion, the LTM4602HV provides foldback current limiting.
If the output voltage falls by more than 50%, then the
maximum output current is progressively lowered to about
one sixth of its full current limit value.

Soft-Start and Latchoff with the RUN/SS pin
The RUN/SS pin provides a means to shut down the
LTM4602HV as well as a timer for soft-start and over-
current latchoff. Pulling the RUN/SS pin below 0.8V puts
the LTM4602HV into a low quiescent current shutdown

current source to charge up the timing capacitor C
Inside LTM4602HV, there is an internal 1000pF capaci-
tor from RUN/SS pin to ground. If RUN/SS pin has an
external capacitor C
starting is about:
When the voltage on RUN/SS pin reaches 1.5V, the
LTM4602HV internal switches are operating with a clamp-
ing of the maximum output inductor current limited by the
RUN/SS pin total soft-start capacitance. As the RUN/SS pin
voltage rises to 3V, the soft-start clamping of the inductor
current is released.
V
There are restrictions in the maximum V
down ratio that can be achieved for a given input voltage.
These constraints are shown in the Typical Performance
Characteristics curves labeled “V
Ratio”. Note that additional thermal de-rating may apply.

Rating sections of this data sheet.
