LTM4612IV - Micro Module Regulator by Linear Technology
The LTM4612IV is a complete, high-efficiency, DC/DC step-down power supply. Manufactured by Linear Technology, a leader in analog and power management technology, this micro module regulator includes an onboard switching controller, power switches, inductor, and all support components. Designed to be compact and easy to use, the LTM4612IV is ideal for a wide range of applications, including telecommunications, data processing, medical, industrial, and point-of-load applications.
Encased in a rugged, thermally enhanced package, the LTM4612IV is designed for robust performance. It operates over a wide input voltage range of 4.5V to 28V and provides an adjustable output voltage from 0.8V to 5V, which allows for a high degree of flexibility in a variety of system architectures. With a maximum output current of 12A, the LTM4612IV is capable of delivering substantial power in a small footprint.
One of the key features of the LTM4612IV is its high efficiency, which can reach up to 93%. This makes it an excellent choice for systems where power efficiency is critical to reduce heat and improve reliability. The module's high switching frequency and current mode control enable a very fast transient response to line and load changes without sacrificing stability.
The LTM4612IV also offers a range of protection features to ensure the longevity and reliability of both the module and the system it powers. These include overvoltage, overcurrent, and over-temperature protection. Additionally, the device features tracking and soft-start capabilities to provide a controlled startup sequence, which can be particularly important in sensitive applications.
The device is available in a 15mm x 15mm x 2.8mm LGA package, which is suitable for automated assembly by standard surface mount equipment. The LTM4612IV is RoHS compliant, catering to environmental standards and regulations.
Linear Technology's LTM4612IV is a testament to their commitment to providing high-performance power management solutions that simplify design, reduce board space, and lower system cost, while offering industry-leading performance.
