G5-G6, H5-H6, J5-J6, K5-K6): Positive Power Input to
Channel 0 and Channel 1 Switching Stages. These pins
provide sufficient decoupling capacitance in the form
of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) and low ESR
electrolytic (or equivalent) to handle reflected input cur-
rent ripple from the step-down switching stage. MLCCs
should be placed as close to the LTM4683 as physically
possible. See the Layout Checklist/Example section in the
Applications Information section.
VOUT0_CFG (A8): Output Voltage Select Pin for V
Coarse Setting. If the VOUT0_CFG and VTRIM0_CFG pins
are both left open—or, if the LTM4683 is configured to
ignore pin-strap (R
CONFIG
ALL[6] = 1b—then the LTM4683s target V
voltage setting (VOUT_COMMAND0) and associated
power-good and OV/UV warning and fault thresholds are
dictated at SV
power-up according to the LTM4683's
IN_01
NVM contents. A resistor divider connected to 2.5V and
to SGND (see Table 1)—in combination with resistor pin
settings on VTRIM0_CFG, and using the factory-default
NVM setting of MFR_CONFIG_ALL[6] = 0b—can be used
to configure the LTM4683's Channel 0 output to power-
up to a VOUT_COMMAND value (and associated output
voltage monitoring and protection/fault-detection thresh-
olds) different from those of NVM contents. (See the
Applications Information section.) Connecting resistor(s)
from VOUT0_CFG to SGND and/or VTRIM0_CFG to SGND
in this manner allows a convenient way to configure

Minimize capacitance especially when the pin is left open

FSWPH_01_CFG (A9): Switching Frequency, Channel
Phase-Interleaving Angle and Phase Relationship to SYNC
Configuration Pin for Channel 0 and Channel 1. If this pin
is left open—or, if the LTM4683 is configured to ignore
pin-strap (R
CONFIG
1b—then LTM4683's switching frequency (FREQUENCY_
SWITCH) and channel phase relationships (with respect
to the SYNC clock; MFR_PWM_CONFIG[2:0]) are dictated
at SV
power-up according to the LTM4683's NVM
IN_01
contents for Channel 0 and Channel 1. Default factory val-
ues are 425kHz operation, Channel 0 at 0°, and Channel 1
at 180°C (convention throughout this document: a phase
angle of 0° means the channel's switch node rises coinci-
dent with the falling edge of the SYNC pulse). Connecting a
,
OUT0
resistor divider from 2.5V to SGND (and using the factory-
default NVM setting of MFR_CONFIG_ALL[6] = 0b) allows
a convenient way to configure multiple LTM4683s with
identical NVM contents for different switching frequencies
of operation and phase interleaving angle settings of intra-
and extra-module-paralleled channels—all, without GUI
intervention or the need to custom pre-program module
NVM contents. (See the Applications Information sec-
tion.) Minimizing capacitance ensures accurate detection
of the pin state.
