# ADI LTM4703 Compatible Replacement — HGCHIPS HG4703 16VIN, 12A Silent Switcher 3 µModule

> HGCHIPS HG4703 is the pin-to-pin compatible replacement for Analog Devices LTM4703 — the 16V-input, 12A step-down µModule regulator built on third-generation Silent Switcher architecture (8µVRMS output noise, ±1.5% DC accuracy, 300kHz–3MHz synchronization) in a 6.25mm × 6.25mm × 5.07mm BGA. ADI positions LTM4703 as recommended for new designs with 1Ku list pricing from US$20.46 and single-unit distributor pricing well above that — while delivery stretches on the newest speed grades, the HG4703 ships from stock in the same 49-ball footprint, drops onto the existing LTM4703 layout with no board change, and is bench-verified against the ADI reference profile. Samples available immediately for board validation.

## FAQ

**Q: Is HG4703 a drop-in replacement for LTM4703?**

Yes — same 49-ball BGA land pattern, pinout, compensation and programming model (single resistor sets output voltage; SYNC selects PSM/FCM). It drops onto an existing LTM4703 layout with no board change. We still recommend a sample evaluation on your board before production release; samples ship immediately.

**Q: How does HG4703 compare on noise and accuracy?**

The HG4703 is bench-verified against the ADI reference profile: 8µVRMS-class output noise (10Hz–100kHz), ±1.5% max total DC error, and 300kHz–3MHz synchronization range. The evaluation comparison report is available under NDA.

**Q: What about temperature grades and the EY/IY suffix?**

The reference LTM4703EY#PBF is the industrial grade. Tell us your exact BOM line (including any MP/MIL requirements) and we confirm the matching HG4703 grade in writing before you commit.
