  LTM4601 DC/DC uModule Thermal Performance &mdash AN110
  PDF, 193 Kb, Archivo publicado: mayo 10, 2007
  This application note provides an extensive guideline for the thermal performance of the LTM4601 μModule. The LTM4601 is characterized with and without heatsinking over an extended operating temperature range. De-rating curves are derived with the different heatsinking types, and the equivalent θJA (thermal resistance) is derived. The different θJA parameters are tabulated with reference to the different test conditions.

  LTM4601 DC/DC ВµModuleВ® Regulator Thermal
  Performance
  Eddie Beville, Jian Yin
  INTRODUCTION
  The LTM4601 DC/DC ОјModule regulator is a complete
  high power density stepdown regulator for up to 12A
  continuous (14A peak) loads. The device is housed in
  a small 15mm ВҐ 15mm ВҐ 2.8mm LGA surface mount
  package, thus the large power dissipation is a challenge
  in some applications. This thermal application note will
  provide guidelines for using the ОјModule regulator in
  ambient environments with or without air flow. Load
  current derating curves are provided for several input
  voltages and output voltages versus ambient temperature
  and air flow. These derating curves provide guidelines
  for using the LTM4601 in ambient environments with
  regard to safe-operating-area (SOA). Also included are
  efficiency curves that are used to extrapolate the power
  loss curves used in this thermal application note. The approach is to measure the temperature of a design, derive
  thermal models for different cases and п¬Ѓnally determine
  the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (qJA) in units of …

  Powering Complex FPGA-Based Systems Using Highly Integrated DC/DC uModule Regulator Systems &mdash AN119A
  PDF, 512 Kb, Archivo publicado: abr 30, 2008
  In a recent discussion with a system designer, the re- quirement for his power supply was to regulate 1.5V and deliver up to 40A of current to a load that consisted of four FPGAs. This is up to 60W of power that must be delivered in a small area with the lowest profile (height) possible to allow a steady flow of air for cooling. The power supply had to be surface mountable and operate at high enough efficiency to minimize heat dissipation. He also demanded the simplest possible solution so his time could be dedicated to the more complex tasks. Aside from precise electrical performance, this solution had to remove the heat generated during DC to DC conversion quickly so that the circuit and the ICs in the vicinity do not over heat.

  In a recent discussion with a system designer, the requirement for his power supply was to regulate 1.5V
  and deliver up to 40A of current to a load that consisted
  of four FPGAs. This is up to 60W of power that must be
  delivered in a small area with the lowest height profile
  possible to allow a steady flow of air for cooling. The
  power supply had to be surface mountable and operate
  at high enough efficiency to minimize heat dissipation.
  He also demanded the simplest possible solution so his
  time could be dedicated to the more complex tasks. Aside
  from precise electrical performance, this solution had to
  remove the heat generated during DC to DC conversion
  quickly so that the circuit and the ICs in the vicinity do not
  overheat. Such a solution requires an innovative design
  to meet these criteria: contribute to lower system cost, consuming less power
  to remove heat). Figure 1 shows a test board for such a
  circuit. The design regulates 1.5V output while delivering
  40A (up to 48A) of load current. Each “black square” is a …

  Powering Complex FPGA-Based Systems Using Highly Integrated DC/DC uModule Regulator Systems &mdash AN119B
  PDF, 290 Kb, Archivo publicado: abr 30, 2008
  In part one of this article, we discussed the circuit and electrical performance of a compact and low proп¬Ѓle 48A, 1.5V DC/DC regulator solution for a four-FPGA design. The new approach uses four DC/DC μModule™ regulators in parallel (Figure 1) to increase output current while sharing the current equally among each device. This solution relies on the accurate current sharing of these μModule regulators to prevent hot-spots by dissipating the heat evenly over a compact surface area. Each DC/DC μModule is a complete power supply with on-board inductor, DC/DC controller, MOSFETs, compensation circuitry and input/output bypass capacitors. It occupies only 15mm × 15mm of board area and has a low proп¬Ѓle (height) of only 2.8mm. This low proп¬Ѓle allows air to flow smoothly over the entire circuit. Moreover, this solution casts no thermal shadow on its surrounding components, further assisting in optimizing thermal performance of the entire system.

  Simple and Compact 4-Output Point-of-Load DC/DC ВµModule
  System – Design Note 411
  Jian Yin and Eddie Beville
  Introduction
  Advancements in board assembly, PCB layout and
  digital IC integration have produced a new generation
  of densely populated, high performance systems. The
  board-mounted, point-of-load (POL) DC/DC power supplies in these systems are subject to the same demanding size, performance and power requirements as other
  subsystems—demands that are difficult to meet with
  traditional power modules or controller/regulator ICs.
  The LTM4601 DC/DC ВµModuleTM converter meets these
  demands by shrinking an entire solution to the size of a
  low profile IC. Its frequency synchronization and voltage
  tracking features allow multiple LTM4601s to be easily
  and quickly configured for multioutput applications.
  4-Output DC/DC Converter Power System
  Figure 1 shows the photo of a 4-output DC/DC supply
  using four ВµModule converters with frequency synchronization and output tracking. The operating waveforms of
  the four outputs are interleaved with a 90В° relative phase
  difference, thus reducing the effective input current ripple. This in turn significantly reduces the bulk capacitance of
  the circuit and the circuit size.
  Figure 2 presents the efficiency of each output in Figure 1.
  With 12V input voltage, each output is tested up to 12A …
