Product details
Overview
LTM4628EV#PBF from Analog Devices is a dual-output µModule® DC/DC regulator delivering 8A per channel or 16A in 2-phase single-output mode, operating from 4.5V to 26.5V input and supporting 0.6V–5.5V programmable outputs with ±1.5% total DC error and fast transient response enabled by current-mode control. It integrates controller, power FETs, inductor, and support components in a thermally enhanced 15mm × 15mm × 4.32mm LGA package, used in telecom power supplies requiring tight rail sequencing and high-density board layouts.
For engineers reviewing the LTM4628EV#PBF datasheet, LTM4628EV#PBF pinout, LTM4628EV#PBF application, or LTM4628EV#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include dual 8A output capability, differential remote sensing for 1.2V/1.5V rail accuracy, multiphase parallel operation support, and thermal monitoring via onboard temperature diode - all critical for ATCA card and industrial embedded power design.
Technical Context
The LTM4628EV#PBF implements two independent current-mode synchronous buck regulators with internal compensation, enabling stable operation across ceramic-only output capacitors and wide VIN/VOUT combinations. Its architecture supports frequency synchronization (400–750 kHz), phase-controlled CLKOUT for up to 12-phase interleaving, and selectable Burst Mode® or pulse-skipping for light-load efficiency.
Each channel features dedicated RUN, TRACK, PGOOD, and VFB pins, with integrated differential remote sense amplifier (DIFFP/DIFFN/DIFFOUT) supporting accurate load-point regulation for outputs between 0.6V and 3.3V. The device includes overvoltage lockout (0.64–0.68V at VFB), foldback overcurrent protection (15A peak), and internal 5V INTVCC regulator powered from VIN or EXTVCC.

Pinout & Package
The LTM4628EV#PBF uses a 144-lead LGA package (15mm × 15mm × 4.32mm) with exposed thermal pad on bottom. Pin functions are defined per Analog Devices Rev. F datasheet, with dedicated power, ground, control, and feedback terminals arranged in grid layout (A1–M12).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT1 (A1–C4, B1–B5) | Main output 1 power terminal | Delivers regulated 1.5V/8A; requires direct decoupling to adjacent GND pins for low-impedance return path |
| VOUT2 (A8–C12, B8–B12) | Main output 2 power terminal | Delivers regulated 1.2V/8A; electrically isolated from VOUT1 but shares thermal substrate |
| VFB1 / VFB2 (D5 / D7) | Negative input of error amplifier | Accepts 0.6V reference; sets output voltage with external resistor (e.g., 40.2kΩ for 1.5V); max ±20nA leakage |
| TRACK1 / TRACK2 (E5 / D8) | Soft-start and rail-tracking input | 1.3µA pull-up enables controlled ramp-up; supports coincident sequencing of 1.2V/1.5V rails via voltage divider |
| MODE_PLLIN (F4) | Mode selection & sync input | Selects Burst Mode® (float), pulse-skipping (INTVCC), or forced continuous (GND); accepts external clock for phase locking |
| DIFFP / DIFFN (E8 / E9) | Differential remote sense inputs | Enable load-point regulation for outputs 0.6–3.3V; require Kelvin connection to load for <1% sensing error |
| TEMP (J6) | On-die temperature diode anode | Outputs VBE proportional to die temperature; used with external circuit for thermal shutdown or margining |
| PGOOD1 / PGOOD2 (G9 / G8) | Open-drain power-good indicators | Pull low if output deviates >±7.5% from setpoint; drive external enable logic or FPGA reset lines |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output µModule regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTM4644IY#PBF | Quad 4A output, 16mm × 16mm BGA, supports 0.6–3.3V only, no differential remote sense | Better suited for quad-rail systems (e.g., memory + core + I/O + aux) but lacks load-point sensing for precision rails | Select when needing four independent outputs instead of dual high-current rails |
| LTM4650AIV#PBF | Single 50A output, 16mm × 16mm LGA, 0.6–3.3V range, integrated PMBus interface | Targeted at high-current single-rail applications (e.g., AI accelerator cores) with digital telemetry, not dual-rail sequencing | Select when digital monitoring and >16A single-rail capability outweigh dual-output flexibility |
Compared with LTM4628EV#PBF, LTM4644IY#PBF offers greater output count but sacrifices remote sensing and rail-tracking precision, while LTM4650AIV#PBF provides higher single-rail current and digital control at the cost of dual-output functionality and analog sequencing support.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current per channel for the LTM4628EV#PBF?
The LTM4628EV#PBF delivers 8A continuous current per channel at 1.5V output with 12V input, verified across the full –40°C to 125°C internal temperature range. Peak current capability is 15A per channel under overcurrent foldback conditions, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the Rev. F datasheet.
Does the LTM4628EV#PBF support remote voltage sensing?
Yes, the LTM4628EV#PBF includes a dedicated differential remote sense amplifier (DIFFP/DIFFN/DIFFOUT pins) supporting accurate load-point regulation for outputs between 0.6V and 3.3V. When enabled, it compensates for PCB trace resistance, maintaining ±1.5% total DC error at the load rather than at the module pins.
Can the LTM4628EV#PBF operate in single-output 16A mode?
Yes, the LTM4628EV#PBF can be configured for single 16A 2-phase operation by connecting VFB1 and VFB2 together with one programming resistor, paralleling COMP1 and COMP2, and synchronizing PHASMD pins. This configuration reduces output ripple by interleaving and increases current capacity while retaining fast transient response.
What is the purpose of the MODE_PLLIN pin on the LTM4628EV#PBF?
The MODE_PLLIN pin on the LTM4628EV#PBF serves three functions: selecting light-load operation mode (Burst Mode® when floating, pulse-skipping when tied to INTVCC, forced continuous when grounded), and acting as an external synchronization input for phase-locking multiple modules. It directly controls switching behavior without requiring external logic.
How does the LTM4628EV#PBF handle thermal monitoring?
The LTM4628EV#PBF integrates an on-die temperature diode connected to the TEMP pin, providing a VBE-based analog output proportional to junction temperature. Engineers use this with an external circuit (e.g., comparator or ADC) to implement thermal shutdown, derating, or system-level temperature margining without adding discrete sensors.
