The LMQ61460-Q1 evaluation module (EVM) is designed to help customers evaluate the performance of the
LMQ61460-Q1 synchronous step-down voltage converter. This EVM implements the LMQ61460-Q1 in a 14-pin
wettable flanks Hotrod™ package, as shown in Table 1-1. It is capable of delivering 5-V output voltage and up to
6-A load current switching at 400 kHz with exceptional efficiency and output accuracy in a very small solution
size. The EVM provides multiple power connectors and test points. In addition to an optimized EMI board layout,
the LMQ61460-Q1 utilizes integrated bypass capacitors which results in great EMI performance.

1 Introduction
1.1 LMQ61460-Q1 Synchronous Step-Down Voltage Converter
The LMQ61460-Q1 is an easy-to-use synchronous step-down DC/DC converter capable of delivering up to 6 A
of load current from a supply voltage ranging from 3 V to 36 V. The LMQ61460-Q1 provides exceptional
efficiency and output accuracy in a very small solution size. The LMQ61460-Q1 is capable of delivering 6 A of
load current and implements peak current mode control. The following are additional features that provide both
flexible and easy-to-use solutions for a wide range of applications:
• Adjustable switching frequency (RT)
• Synchronization to an external clock (CLK jumper)
• FPWM variant (LMQ61460AFS) (IC swap)
• Power-good flag (PG jumper)
• Precision enable (EN jumper with RENT and RENB resistors)
Automatic frequency foldback at light load and optional external bias improve efficiency over the entire load
range. The device requires few external components and has a pinout designed for optimal EMI and thermal
performance. Protection features include the following:
• Thermal shutdown
• Input undervoltage lockout
• Cycle-by-cycle current limiting
• Hiccup short-circuit protection
For a quick reference, Figure 1-1 shows the pin configuration of the LMQ61460-Q1.

2 Quick Start Guide
1. Connect the voltage supply between the VIN and GND connectors or between VIN_EMI and GND_EMI to
include the on-board input filter in the input path. Use short and thick gauge wires to minimize inductance and
IR drop. Note that sense points for VIN and VOUT are provided.
2. Connect the load of the converter between VOUT and GND connectors using short and thick wires.
3. Set the supply voltage at an appropriate level between 6 V to 36 V. The 6 V minimum input voltage ensures
enough head room for VOUT to equal 5 V at a 6 A load current. Set the current limit of the supply to an
appropriate level to supply needed current and protection.
4. Turn on the power supply. With the default configuration, the EVM powers up and provides VOUT equal to 5 V.
5. Monitor the output voltage with sense points. The maximum load current is 6 A with the LMQ61460-Q1. Note
that the maximum output current may need to derate if ambient temperature is high, especially if device is
operated at higher frequency, that is 2.1 MHz.
See Figure 5-1 for connector locations.
CAUTION
Caution Hot surface.
Contact may cause burns.
Do not touch.

3 Detailed Descriptions
This section describes the connectors on the EVM and how to properly connect, set up, and use the EVM. See
Figure 1-1 for a top view of the EVM.
VOUT Output voltage of the converter
VOUT connectors connect to the power inductor and output capacitors. Connect the load between
the VOUT connector and the GND connector to provide load current. Connect the loading device to
the board with short and thick wires to handle the large DC output current.
GND Ground of the converter
The GND is connected to the PGND and AGND pins of the device as well as the ground of the input
and output capacitors. The GND connections next to VIN, VIN_EMI, and VOUT connectors are
meant for current return path for the supply voltage and load, respectively. Connectors are provided
in pairs to allow easy and accurate sensing of voltages. Connect to supply and load grounds with
short and thick wires. Other GND connectors are for signal measurement and probing.
VIN Input voltage to the converter
The VIN connector connects to the input capacitors and the VIN pins of the LMQ61460-Q1. Connect
the supply voltage from a power supply or a battery between VIN and GND connectors as power
input to the device. The input voltage (VIN) range must be higher than 3.9 V for the device to start up
and above 3 V to maintain operation. A VIN higher than 6 V provides a regulated 5-V output voltage.
Maximum VIN is limited to 36 V to avoid damaging the device. The current limit on the supply must
be high enough to provide the needed supply current. The supply voltage must be connected to the
board with short and thick wires to handle the required input current at maximum load current. If long
cables are used to power up the board, damping must be provided by adding CFLT3 and RFLT3 to
avoid oscillation between the cable parasitic inductance and the existing low-ESR ceramic
capacitors.
VIN_EMI Low EMI option
If the input filter is required, connect the supply voltage between VIN_EMI and GND_EMI. The
supply voltage must be connected to the board with short and thick wires.
The input filter consists of the following: CF1, CF2, CF3, CF4, CF5, CF6, and L2. CD1, CD2, RD1,
and RD2 are provided to allow more options for filter optimization. To include the input filter in the
power path, connect the supply voltage between the VIN_EMI and GND_EMI connectors. The
output of the filter is connected to VIN, which is connected to the VIN pins of the LMQ61460-Q1.
Conducted EMI arises from the operation of switching circuits.
GND_EMI Ground return for the input filter
This is the current return path for the supply connected to VIN_EMI. It provides a short-loop
connection to the input filter capacitors to best filter the conducted noise generated from the PCB.
Use VIN_EMI and GND_EMI connection if input filter is used and conducted EMI test is desired.
CLK For synchronization clock input
The CLK input connector is designed for external clock input to the EN/SYNC pin. Switching action
of the buck is synchronized to the external clock when it is present. The operation mode
automatically changes to forced PWM mode, maintaining a constant switching frequency over the
entire load range while the clock signal is present.
EN To monitor the EN pin or control EN signal
This test point is used to monitor the voltage on the device EN pin. By default, the EN pin is
connected to the mid-point of an enable divider. Note that the lower resistor in this divider, RENB, is
not populated so the IC turns on by default. Populate RENB to adjust UVLO. Apply a voltage to EN
to externally enable or disable the device.

PG To monitor the PGOOD/RESET pin
The PGOOD flag indicates whether the output voltage is within the regulation band. The RESET pin
(synonymous with PGOOD pin) of the device is an open-drain output and is pulled up to VOUT
through a 100 k resistor. This pin pulls to GND when the output voltage is out of regulation.
Vinj For measuring AC response
A low value resistor, Rinj, is placed between VOUT and this node. The feedback divider of the board
is connected to this node. An AC signal is applied across Rinj when taking measurements for bode
plots.
VOUTS VOUT sense
This connector is provided for measuring the output voltage accurately.
VINS VIN sense
This connector is provided for measuring the input voltage accurately.

5 Board Layout
Figure 5-1 through Figure 5-5 show the board layout for the LMQ61460-Q1 EVM. The EVM offers resistors,
capacitors, and test points to configure the following:
• Output voltage (RFBT and RFBB)
• Precision enable pin (RENT and RENB)
• Set frequency (RT)
• External clock synchronization (CLK jumper)
The 14-pin Hotrod package with integrated capacitors offers a very small size and low-noise solution. The PCB
consists of a 4-layer design. There are 2-oz copper planes on the top and bottom and 1-oz copper mid-layer
planes to route signals and dissipate heat with an array of thermal vias to connect to all four layers.
Test points have been provided for ease of use to connect the power supply and required load, and to monitor
critical signals.
The board measures 3.00" x 4.00" (76mm x 101mm).

Thermal image captures top of case temperature. This is essentially junction temperature as the case
