DEMO MANUAL DC2194A
LTM4642IY
20VIN, DUAL 4A or SINGLE 8A
DC/DC µMODULE REGULATOR
Description
Demonstration circuit of DC2194A features the
LTM®4642IY, the wide input voltage, high efficiency and
power density, dual 4A or single 8A DC/DC step-down
µModule regulator. The step-down regulator operates
from an input voltage range of 4.5V to 20V (or 2.5V min.
with 5V external bias voltage at CPWR) and provides an
adjustable output voltage range from 0.6V to 5V at 4A load
current per channel. The part is capable of operating in
dual phase single output, delivers up to 8A load current
with interleaved two phases at 180 degrees. Differential
output voltage sensing is available on Channel 1 for applications requiring more accurate output load regulation.
A user-selectable mode input is provided to allow users to
trade off ripple noise for light load efficiency: Discontinuous Mode (DCM) of operation delivers higher efficiency
at light load while Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) is
preferred for noise sensitive applications. The mode pin
can also be used to sync the switching frequency to an
external clock. Programmable switching frequency range
is from 600kHz to 1400kHz with a ±30% synchronization
capture range. Constant on time, valley current mode
control architecture and integrated internal control loop
compensation allow very fast transient response to line
and load changes while maintaining loop stability.
It is recommended to read the data sheet and demo
manual of LTM4642 prior using or making any changes
to DC2194A.

Quick Start Procedure
Demonstration circuit DC2194A is easy to set up to evaluate
the performance of the LTM4642. Please refer to Figure 1
for proper measurement equipment setup and follow the
procedures below:
probe placement technique. Short, still leads need to
be soldered to the (+) and (–) terminals of an output
capacitor. The probe’s ground ring needs to touch the
(–) lead and the probe tip needs to touch the (+) lead.
1. With power off, connect the input power supply at VIN
(J4) and GND (J5)
6. DC2194A provides convenient on board BNC terminals
to accurately measure output ripples of Channel 1 and
Channel 2. Connect short BNC cables from VOUT1,
VOUT2 to the scope inputs (Scope probe ratio 1:1, AC
coupling) to observe output voltage ripples.
2. Connect the first load between VOUT1 (J6) and GND
(J7) for Channel 1, connect the second load between
VOUT2 (J8) and GND (J3) for Channel 2. Preset all the
loads to 0A.
3. Connect the DMMs at the input (E4 and E5) to monitor input voltage. Connect DMMs at VO1+ (E6) and
VO1– (E7), VO2+ (E11) and VO2– (E9) to monitor DC
output voltages. These output voltage test points are
Kelvin sensed directly across COUT1 for Channel 1 and
COUT4 for Channel 2 to provide accurate measurement
of output voltages. Do not apply load current to any of
the above test points to avoid damage to the regulator.
Do not connect the ground leads of scope probes to
VO1– and VO2–.
4. Turn on the power supply at the input. Measure and
make sure the input supply voltage is 12V. Place the
RUN 1 (JP4) and RUN2 (JP5) in the “ON” position. The
output voltage should be 1.8V ±1.5% for Channel 1 and
1.2 ±1.5% for Channel 2.
5. Once the input and output voltages are properly established, adjust the input voltage between 4.5V and 20V
and the loads within the operating range of 0A to 4A
max per channel. Observe the output voltage regulation, output voltage ripples, switch node waveform,
load transient response and other parameters. Refer to
Figure 2 for proper output voltage ripple measurement.
NOTE 1: To measure the input/output voltage ripple
properly, do not use the long ground lead on the
oscil­loscope probe. See Figure 2 for the proper scope

7. DC2194A provides an optional onboard load transient
circuit to measure ∆VOUT peak-to-peak deviation during rising or falling dynamic load transient. The simple
load step circuit consisting of a 30V N-channel power
MOSFET in series with a 10mΩ, 1W,1% current sense
resistor. The MOSFET is configured as a voltage control
current source (VCCS) device, therefore the output current step and its magnitude is created and controlled by
adjusting the amplitude of the applied input voltage step
at the gate of the MOSFET. Use a function generator to
provide a voltage pulse between IOSTEP CLK (E17) and
GND (E18); the input voltage pulse should be set at the
frequency less than 10Hz and maximum duty cycle of
less than 5% to avoid excessive thermal stress on the
MOSFET device. The output current step is measured
directly across the 10mΩ current sense resistor and
monitored by connecting a BNC cable from IOSTEP to
the input of the oscilloscope (scope probe ratio 1:1,
DC coupling), the equivalent voltage to current scale
is 10mV/1A. The load step current slew rate dI/dt can
be set by adjusting the rising time and fall time of the
input voltage pulse.
The default load step circuit is connected to VOUT1 but
can be used for VOUT2 by simply removing the zero
Ohm jumper R27 and stuffing it at the position of R28
and vice versa. Repeat Step 7 to perform load step
transient evaluation for Channel 2.

* NOTE 2: LTM4642 has been internally compensated
for most of input, output voltages and frequency ranges.
However, to obtain the best efficiency, thermal and load
transient response performance when selecting output
voltages different than the demo board default set voltages,
the following parameters need to be optimized accordingly:
input voltages, switching frequency, output capacitors
and optional external compensation values (Feedforward
Capacitors: C1, C12 and CCOMP: C3, C11). Please refer to
Table 2 for more details.

Differential Output Voltage Sensing
The LTM4642 includes an internal low offset, high input
impedance, unity gain, high bandwidth differential amplifier for applications that require true remote sensing. This
feature allows users to accurately sense the output voltage
across the output capacitor at the load point in a widely
distributed power system where power trace’s parasitic
voltage drops are always presented. The differential amplifier’s output is internally connected to the error amplifier’s
6
inverting input. VOUTS1+ and VOUTS1– are Kelvin connected
directly across COUT1 on DC2194A.
(Optional) Output Voltage Tracking
TRK/SS1 and TRK/SS2 allow users to program output
voltage supply tracking during start-up or shutdown while
operating several voltage supply rails at the same time.
Channel 1 is configured as a master and Channel 2 is a
slave channel on DC2194A. Coincident tracking mode
can be implemented by connecting TRK/SS2 of the
slave channel to the mid-point of an additional resistive
divider (R19, R20) to the master channel’s output voltage. The ratio of this divider is identical to that of the
slave’s channel feedback divider. In this tracking mode,
output voltage of the master channel must be higher
than the output voltage of the slave channel. The rising
time of the output voltage can be adjusted by changing
the soft start capacitor’s values of the master channel.
Coincident tracking mode can be activated by inserting
JP6 between Pin 1 and 2 of TRACK2 SEL and performing start-up/shutdown by releasing RUN1 from GND
and pulling RUN1 to GND accordingly. Tracking mode
can be observed by monitoring VOUT1, VOUT2 and FB1,
FB2 using scope probes. The same method can be used
to configure VOUT1 or VOUT2 tracking an external supply
voltage by inserting JP3 (TRK1 SEL) to TRACK or JP6
(TRK2 SEL) to EXT, applying an external voltage supply
at TRACK1 (E8) or TRACK2 (E13) and repeating start-up/
shutdown test to evaluate the tracking function of the
regulator. Ratiometric tracking mode can be achieved by
connecting TRK/SS2 to FB1. Ratiometric tracking mode
can save two resistors while coincident tracking mode
offers better voltage regulation. It is optional for users
to determine the most appropriate tracking method for
the power supply design.
(Optional) External Frequency Synchronization
The MODE/PLLIN pin can be used to synchronize the
internal oscillator clock frequency to the external clock
signal. Place JP2 (MODE/PLLIN) to CLKIN, apply an
external clock at CLKIN (E10) to vary the switching frequency within ±30% of the set frequency. The external
clock input high threshold is 2V typical, while the input
low threshold is 0.5V.

DEMO MANUAL DC2194A
Quick Start Procedure
(Optional) Lower the Default Current Limit Setting for
Channel 1
The default current limit setting for Channel 1 is 7A
peak current limit with VRNG1 tied to INTVCC. DC2194A
provides an option to lower the peak current limit setting
for Channel 1 (applications that required lower peak
current limit to effectively protect the power devices during
temporary output overloaded condition or output shorted
circuit) by adjusting the DC voltage level at VRNG1. An
external resistive divider from INTVCC can be used to set
the voltage on VRNG pin between 1V to 0.6V, lower the
VRNG1 voltage than 1V resulting in a lower maximum
sense voltage and peak current limit.
(Optional) Operation with Low VIN Range
(2.5V ≤ VIN ≤ 4.5V)
LTM4642 is equipped with CPWR pin, allowing VIN to
operate down to VIN = 3.3V typical. CPWR pin is the main
input power to the control IC and can be disconnected from
the default VIN supply voltage (Remove R13) and tied to
an external 5V bias supply voltage at E14. If the DC bias
supply voltage for CPWR is less than 5.3V, DRVCC can
also be tied to this pin by stuffing R15 = 0Ω. Since the
RUN pins of Channel 1 and Channel 2 are directly tied to
VIN, pull up resistors at the RUN pins (R9, R23) should
be re-calculated and inserted to make sure the part can
start up at low VIN. A good value to start with is 115kΩ
using internal RUN pin pull-down resistor of 100k, RUN
Pin On threshold of 1.1V min. to 1.3V max and RUN pin
absolute max voltage of 6V. Care should be taken by not
exceeding maximum voltage rating on DRVCC/INTVCC pin
when operating in this mode. Refer to Table 2. for recommended optimized switching frequency while operating at
low VIN voltage range.
(Optional) Operation with EXTVCC
EXTVCC pin is available for optional external 5V bias supply
to power INTVCC/DRVCC. The advantage of using EXTVCC
is to shut down the internal LDO powered from VIN, turn
on the internal EXTVCC switch and directly source the external 5V bias supply to power INTVCC/DRVCC, therefore
improving overall efficiency and reducing temperature
rise of the part, especially at high input voltage range. An
onboard turret (E3) is available for EXTVCC with a minimum
of 4.7µF decoupling ceramic capacitor to PGND. Do not
exceed the maximum rated voltage for EXTVCC and make
sure VIN is powered up before applying EXTVCC.
(Optional) Dual Phase Single Output Circuit
Configuration:
DC2194A can be configured as dual phase single output
to provide up to 8A total load current.
The following simple modification is required: (Channel 1
is master, Channel 2 is slave). Please refer to Table 3 for
more details.
