DEMO MANUAL DC1198A-A
Description
LTM4605
20V, 5A High Efficiency
Buck-Boost µModule Regulator
Demonstration circuit DC1198A-A features the
LT M
®
4605EV, the high efficiency, high density switch
modebuck-boostµModule
®
regulator. The LTM4605EV can
regulate its output voltage from an input voltage above,
below, or equal to the output. The input voltage range
of DC1198A-A is from 4.5V to 20V with a preset output
voltage of 12V. The rated load current is 5A, although
derating is necessary for certain VIN, VOUT, and thermal
conditions. The switching frequency may be synchronized
to an external clock from 200kHz to 400kHz. This PLL

can be used not only to reduce undesirable frequency
harmonics but also to parallel LTM4605 to provide high
output current. The LTM4605 data sheet must be read in
conjunction with this demo manual prior to working on
or modifying DC1198A-A.

Figure 1. Test Setup of DC1198A-A
Demonstration circuit DC1198A-A isaneasywayto evaluate
the performance of the LTM4605EV. Please refer to Figure
1 for proper measurement equipment set-up and follow
the procedure below:
1. Place jumpers in the following positions for a typical
12VOUT application:
RUN CLOCK MODE START
ON PROG CCM SSO
2. With power off, connect the input power supply, load
and meters as shown in Figure 1. Preset the load to 0A
and VIN supply to be less than 20V.
3. Turn on the power at the input. The output voltage
should be 12V ± 2%.
4. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust
the load within the operating range and observe the
output voltage regulation, ripple voltage, efficiency and
other parameters. Cooling fan andlower current sensing
resistor are necessary for VIN < 5V and IOUT = 5A.
5. To measure input and output ripple, please refer to
Figure 2 for proper setup.
6. The voltage of pin PLLFLTR determines the switching
frequency. Modify R6 and R7 to adjust the switching
frequency. Turn off the power supply before attempting
to remove and replace R6 and R7. Do not allow voltage
at pin PLLFLTR exceed 2.4V.
7. The Inductor, RS1 and RS2 should be modified to ac-
commodate certain input and output condition. Please
refer to the LTM4605 data sheet for recommended
component values.
