regulator, a high-performance high-efficiency
quad output step-down regulator. The LTM4644EY has an
operating input voltage range of 4V to 14V and is able to
provide up to 4A of output current from each of its phases.
Each output’s voltage is programmable from 0.6V to 5.5V.
The LTM4644EY is a DC/DC point of load regulator in a
9mm × 15mm × 5.01mm BGA package requiring only a

is available through the TRACK/SS pin for supply rail se-
quencing. External clock synchronization is also available
through the CLKIN pin. The LTM4644 data sheet must be
read in conjunction with this demo manual prior to working
on or modifying demo circuit 1900A.
