Description
Demonstration circuit 2147A features the
the high efficiency, high density, dual 10A, switch mode
step-down µModule
voltage is from 4.5V to 15V. The output voltage is pro-
grammable from 0.6V to 1.8V. DC2147A can deliver up to
10A maximum in each channel. As explained in the data
sheet, output current derating is necessary for certain
V
, V
, and thermal conditions. The board operates in

OUT
continuous conduction mode in heavy load conditions.
For high efficiency at low load currents, the MODE jumper
(JP1) selects pulse-skipping mode for noise sensitive ap-
plications or Burst Mode
applications. Two outputs can be connected in parallel for
a single 20A output solution with optional jumper resis-
tors. The board allows the user to program how its output

can be set up to either coincidentally or ratio-metrically
track with another supply's output. Remote output voltage
sensing is available for improved output voltage regula-
tion at the load point. These features and the availability
of the LTM4631 in a compact 16mm × 16mm × 1.91mm
LGA package make it ideal for use in many high density
point-of-load regulation applications. The LTM4631 data
sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual
for working on or modifying the demo circuit DC2147A.
