OPERATION
other by programming the PHMODE pin of each LTC3415 Refer to Figure 2 for confi gurations of 2-phase, 3-phase, to different levels. For example, a slave stage that is 180 4-phase, 6-phase and 12-phase operation. degrees out of phase from the master can generate a A multiphase power supply signifi cantly reduces the amount CLKOUT signal that is 300 degrees (PHMODE = 0) away of ripple current in both the input and output capacitors. from the master for the next stage, which then can gener- The RMS input ripple current is divided by, and the effective ate a CLKOUT signal that’s 420, or 60 degrees (PHMODE ripple frequency is multiplied by, the number of phases used = SVIN/2) away from the master for its following stage.
