| 19-3584; Rev 0; 2/05 ORing MOSFET Controller with Ultra-Fast 200ns Turn-Off General Description The MAX5079 ORing MOSFET controller replaces ORing diodes in high-reliability redundant, parallel-connected power supplies. Despite their low forward-voltage drop, ORing Schottky diodes cause excessive power dissipation at high currents. The MAX5079 allows for the use of low-on-resistance n-channel power MOSFETs to replace the Schottky diodes. This results in low power dissipation, smaller size, and elimination of heatsinks in high-power applications. The MAX5079 operates from 2.75V to 13.2V and includes a charge pump to drive the high-side n-channel MOSFET. Operation down to 1V is possible if an auxiliary voltage of at least 2.75V is available. When the controller detects a positive voltage difference between IN and BUS, the n-channel MOSFET is turned on. The MOSFET is turned off as soon as the MAX5079 sees a negative potential at IN with respect to the BUS voltage, and is automatically turned back on when the positive potential is restored. Under fault conditions, the ORing MOSFET's gate is pulled down with a 1A current, providing an ultra-fast 200ns turn-off. The reverse voltage turn-off threshold is externally adjustable to avoid unintentional turn-off of the ORing MOSFET due to glitches at IN or BUS caused by hot plugging the power supply. Additional features include an OVP flag to facilitate shutdown of a failed power supply due to an overvoltage condition, and a PGOOD signal that indicates if VIN is either below the undervoltage lockout or VBUS is in an overvoltage condition. The MAX5079 operates over the -40C to +85C temperature range and is available in a space-saving 14-pin TSSOP package. 2.75V to 13.2V Input ORing Voltage 1V to 13.2V Input ORing Voltage with 2.75V Aux Voltage Present 2A MOSFET Gate Pulldown Current During Fault Condition Ultra-Fast 200ns, MOSFET Turn-Off During Fault Condition Supply Undervoltage and Bus Overvoltage Detection Power-Good (PGOOD) and Overvoltage (OVP) Outputs for Fault Detection Space-Saving 14-Pin TSSOP Package -40C to +85C Operating Temperature Range Features MAX5079 Ordering Information PART MAX5079EUD TEMP RANGE -40C to +85C PIN-PACKAGE 14 TSSOP Typical Operating Circuit SUB 75N 03-04 1V TO 13.2V VOUT1 POWER SUPPLY 1 (PS1) >2.75V N1 VIN IN AUXIN UVLO STH RSTH CSTH C+ CFTH GATE U1 MAX5079 BUS PGOOD OVI OVP GND VBUS BUS COMMON Applications Paralleled DC-DC Converter Modules N+1 Redundant Power Systems Servers Base-Station Line Cards RAID Networking Line Cards VOUT2 POWER SUPPLY 2 (PS2) CEXT RFTH SUB 75N 03-04 1V TO 13.2V VIN IN >2.75V AUXIN UVLO STH RSTH CSTH C+ CFTH GATE U2 MAX5079 BUS PGOOD OVI OVP GND CBUS N2 VBUS CEXT RFTH Pin Configuration appears at end of data sheet. ________________________________________________________________ Maxim Integrated Products 1 For pricing, delivery, and ordering information, please contact Maxim/Dallas Direct! at 1-888-629-4642, or visit Maxim's website at www.maxim-ic.com.

The device has an internal charge pump to drive the highside n-channel ORing MOSFET. Additional features include an adjustable undervoltage lockout threshold (UVLO), output overvoltage detector (OVI/OVP), input power-good detector (PGOOD), and two programmable reverse voltage detectors to detect both fast and slow rises in the reverse voltage across the ORing MOSFET. The input power-supply range is from 2.75V to 13.2V or down to 1V when an auxiliary supply of at least 2.75V is available. VIN), by sourcing 2mA into N1's gate capacitance. This results in a less than 10s turn-on time for the FDB7045L used in the MAX5079 evaluation kit. The fast turn-on is needed to assure that N1 is ON before the rising VOUT1 reaches its steady-state value. If the MOSFET is not turned on before VOUT1 reaches its steady state, VBUS may overshoot due to the shorting of the 0.7V (forward drop) of N1's body diode. A higher VIN (U1) can more quickly charge the charge-pump capacitor to 5V (or 7V), while a lower VIN (U1) will take longer. Typically the MOSFET turns on at VGS = 2.5V. Ensure that the soft-start time of the power supply is large enough (> 5ms) to avoid VOUT1 racing ahead and causing VBUS to overshoot. Care must be taken to avoid the overloading of VOUT1 by either limiting the source current (using the current-sharing circuit) or delay the loading of the BUS until all three power supplies are up and running. b. VOUT2 turns on and begins increasing the voltage at IN (U2). VUVLO (U2) crosses the UVLO threshold, the MAX5079 (U2) charge pump turns on and U2 monitors the VOUT2 to VBUS voltage. When this voltage difference becomes positive, GATE (U2) begins sourcing 2mA into N2's gate capacitance. During turn-on, the reverse voltage turn-off circuit is momentarily disabled. If V OUT2 is lower than VOUT1, the external load-sharing controller circuit of PS2 will try to increase VOUT2 to source current from VOUT2. Assume VOUT2's rise time is slow enough not to cause any overshoot before N2 turns on and starts sharing the current. c. VOUT3 turns on and U3 follows the same sequence as U2. Eventually VOUT1, VOUT2, and VOUT3 reach to equilibrium and sharing equal currents. 2) PS1 and PS2 are on and sharing the load when PS3 is hot-inserted. PS3 will take the same course as discussed in 1b above. a. If VOUT3 is higher than VBUS, the BUS voltage will increase to the new level determined by VOUT3. The external load-sharing controller circuit of PS1 and PS2 will increase VOUT1 and VOUT2 to force current sharing. b. If VOUT3 is lower than VBUS, the load-sharing circuit of PS3 will increase VOUT3 to force the sharing of current. This causes VOUT3 to increases above VBUS. When this voltage difference becomes positive, GATE (U3) begins sourcing 2mA into N3's gate capacitance. Again, the reverse voltage turnoff circuit is disabled momentarily, as discussed before. The load-sharing circuit of PS3's controller will adjust VOUT3 so as to share the load current. Operational Description This section describes a detailed startup sequence and behavior of the MAX5079 under different conditions of VBUS and VIN. The MAX5079 powers up whenever VIN is equal to or greater than 2.75V and VUVLO exceeds the UVLO threshold of 0.66V. Operation with VIN down to 1V is possible as long as VUVLO 0.6V and VAUXIN 2.75V. When VUVLO crosses the UVLO threshold, VGATE rises to V IN and the charge pump turns on. The charge pump delivers 2mA to charge the gate capacitance of the external MOSFET connected to GATE. The constant gate-charge current prevents large inrush currents from the input supply. During turn-on, the MAX5079 will ignore the reverse voltage at IN with respect to BUS. This is necessary to avoid the unintentional turn-off of the ORing MOSFET as the momentary inrush current causes VIN to dip. Figure 2 shows the MAX5079 in an ORing configuration with three parallel power supplies (PS1, PS2, and PS3) and three MAX5079s (U1, U2, and U3) provided by outputs VOUT1, VOUT2, and VOUT3. The following events must be carefully considered to ensure proper functionality of the MAX5079 ICs. 1) VBUS is zero with a discharged capacitor (CBUS). All three power supplies are turned ON simultaneously. V OUT1 comes up before V OUT2 and VOUT3. a. When VOUT1 turns on, the bus capacitors (CBUS) begin charging from V OUT1 through N1's body diode. When VUVLO (U1) rises above the UVLO threshold, the MAX5079 (U1) charge pump turns on, and U1 monitors the positive potential from VOUT1 to VBUS. When VOUT1 VBUS the charge pump brings GATE (U1) to 5.5V above VIN (U1) (or 7.5V above VIN depending on the magnitude of 10 ______________________________________________________________________________________ ORing MOSFET Controller with Ultra-Fast 200ns Turn-Off c. During the hot insertion, a voltage spike can occur at N1 and N2 and cause the (VOUT1 to VBUS) or (V OUT2 to V BUS) voltage to go negative. If the reverse voltage is below the fast-comparator reverse voltage threshold (VFTH) but above the programmed slow-comparator reverse voltage threshold (VSTH), the spike is ignored for the programmed blanking time (t STH ). If the spike is longer than 50ns (the fast-comparator internal blanking time, tFBL) and larger than VFTH, then U1 and U2 will turn off N1 and N2 quickly. If the magnitude of the voltage spike is above VSTH but less than VFTH, and longer than the slow-comparator blanking time (tSTH), U1 and U2 will turn off their respective ORing MOSFETs (N1 and N2) by discharging their GATE pins to PGND. The external load-sharing circuit of PS1 and PS2 will force VOUT1, VOUT2 above VBUS and N1, N2 will turn back on through the 2mA current sourcing from the GATE pins of U1 and U2. To avoid this situation the user can set the slow-comparator threshold and blanking time depending on the magnitude and duration of the voltage spikes. d. PS3 fails to start. V UVLO (U3) threshold is not crossed and U3 keeps N3 off. e. PS3 goes into an overvoltage condition (no feedback). This causes VBUS to go into an overvoltage condition increasing the loading on PS3 (provided PS3 is able to supply all the required BUS current). The current-sharing circuit will force the outputs of PS1 and PS2 to increase and eventually saturate at their current-sharing voltage range. Eventually only PS3 will have a positive voltage at IN (U3) with respect to BUS. PS1 and PS2 will have a negative voltage at VOUT1 and VOUT2 with respect to BUS. All overvoltage inputs OVI (U1), OVI (U2), and OVI (U3) sense the overvoltage, but only OVP (U3) is asserted and latched low. GATE (U3) is pulled to PGND and remains low as long as V OVI 0.6V. When V OVI drops below 0.6V, OVP remains low. However, U3 tries to turn on N3 unless VOUT3 is actively kept below the undervoltage lockout. Use OVP (U3) to either drive the cathode of the optocoupler to shutdown PS3 from the primary side or use OVP (U3) to fire an SCR connected between VOUT3 and PGND. 3) PS1, PS2, PS3 are turned on with a shorted BUS. Body diodes of N1, N2, and N3 conduct and short the outputs of PS1, PS2, and PS3 to PGND. The power supplies go into current limit (either in foldback or in hiccup mode). The MAX5079s remain in undervoltage lockout and keep all ORing MOSFETs off. The average current sourced by PS1, PS2, or PS3 must be low enough so as not to exceed the MOSFETs power dissipation (PD = VF x ISHORT). a. Use additional n-channel MOSFETs in series with N1, N2, and N3 in the reverse direction to isolate the power supplies from a shorted bus (Figure 3). When power is turned on with a shorted bus, VIN_ (U1, U2, U3) increases and VUVLO rises above the UVLO threshold. The MAX5079's GATE outputs start charging the back-to-back ORing MOSFET gates. The short-circuit condition at BUS collapses VIN (U1), VIN (U2), and VIN (U3) sending the MAX5079s into undervoltage lockout. This turns off the MAX5079s entirely, including discharging of the charge-pump storage capacitors. The IN voltages come back up again crossing UVLO (UVLO has 60mV hysteresis). A new cycle starts and the time required to charge the chargepump capacitor and the turn-on time of the device serves as a dead time. However, the dead time may not be enough to reduce the dissipation in the MOSFETs to an acceptable level. We advise in keeping the short-circuit current low and providing hiccup current-limit protection to the power supplies (PS1, PS2, and PS3). b. Any other overload condition that would sustain the IN voltage above UVLO, will keep the MOSFETs ON continuously. Ensure the MOSFETs' current rating is higher than the maximum short-circuit source current of the power supplies (PS1, PS2, and PS3) to avoid damage to the ORing MOSFETs. 4) PS1, PS2, and PS3 are present and PS1 is shorted to GND. VOUT1 drops below VBUS. The negative potential from VIN (U1) to VBUS increases above the fast-comparator threshold and lasts longer than the 50ns blanking time. The MAX5079 (U1) takes its power from the voltage at BUS (U1). Connect BUS close to CBUS, away from N1 so that U1 can receive power from BUS for a few microseconds until N1 isolates BUS from IN. N1 is discharged with 2A pulldown current, turning off N1 and isolating PS1 from the BUS. The load-sharing circuit of PS2 and PS3 will increase PS2 and PS3's load current until the total bus current requirement is satisfied. For VIN (U1) < 2.75V, VAUXIN (U1) must come from an independent source or remain on for some time (a few microseconds) after VIN (U1) has failed. This minimum on-time is needed to discharge the gate of the ORing MOSFET and isolate PS1 from the BUS. MAX5079 ______________________________________________________________________________________ 11 ORing MOSFET Controller with Ultra-Fast 200ns Turn-Off 5) PS1, PS2, PS3 are present and PS1 goes open. PS1's output capacitors discharge and VOUT1 drops below V BUS. The MAX5079 (U1) senses a negative potential from VOUT1 to VBUS. Depending upon how fast PS1's output capacitor discharges, N1 is turned off due to the crossing of the fast- or slow-comparator reverse voltage threshold. N1's gate is discharged with a 2A sink current into GATE (U1), turning off N1 and isolating PS1 from the BUS. The load-sharing circuit of PS2 and PS3 will increase PS2 and PS3's load current until the total BUS current requirement is satisfied. 6) PS1, PS2, PS3 are present and providing BUS current. PS1 loses its feedback signal and goes into an overvoltage condition. VBUS increases and PS1 is loaded heavily. The current share circuit forces VOUT2 and VOUT3 higher and they will eventually saturate at their current-sharing voltage range. Now only PS1 has a positive voltage at IN (U1) with respect to BUS. All OVI inputs will sense the overvoltage, but only OVP (U1) will be asserted and latched low. GATE (U1) is pulled to PGND and remains low as long as VOVI 0.6V. When VOVI drops below 0.6V, OVP remains low, however, U1 tries to turn on N1 unless VOUT1 is actively kept below the undervoltage lockout. Use OVP (U1) to either drive the cathode of an optocoupler to shutdown PS1 from the primary, or fire an SCR connected between IN (U1) and PGND. pump is divided into two stages, a voltage doubler running at 70kHz using an external charge-pump capacitor (CEXT), and a voltage tripler running at 1MHz using an internal capacitor. Connect an external capacitor (CEXT) between C+ and C-. CEXT is charged from the higher of VIN or VAUXIN. When the rising VIN becomes greater then VBUS (VUVLO > 0.66V), CEXT is discharged through GATE into the external MOSFET's gate capacitance. The chargepump output is controlled by an internal regulator. The charge-pump output at GATE sources typically 2mA. This provides enough current drive to turn on a typical ORing MOSFET in less than 10s. When (VGATE - VIN) reaches the target value (depending on VIN) the charge pump is switched off (see the Electrical Characteristics table). Choose C EXT equal to 10 times the ORing MOSFET gate capacitance. Too low of a capacitance will delay the turn-on of the ORing MOSFET, while too high of a capacitance can cause excessive ripple at VIN. Bypass IN to GND with a 1F ceramic capacitor to avoid ripple at IN caused by the charge-pump switching. A clamp is placed internally between GATE and IN to prevent (VGATE - VIN) from exceeding 11V. When VIN is less than 5V, the charge pump (tripler) will increase VGATE to 3x's VIN to further reduce the RDSON of the ORing MOSFET. The internal charge-pump booster (voltage tripler) section is operational only when VIN and VAUXIN are low and is turned off when VIN exceeds 5V. When an additional supply is connected to AUXIN and (VAUXIN - VIN) > 5V, both charge pumps are completely disabled. In this case, the charging of the ORing gate comes entirely from VAUXIN. In this case, the chargepump flying capacitor can be eliminated and C+, Ccan be left floating. MAX5079 Internal and External Undervoltage Lockout The internal undervoltage lockout monitors V IN and VAUXIN and keeps the MAX5079 off until either voltage reaches 2.75V. Once powered and VIN and/or VAUXIN increase above 2.75V, the external UVLO is monitored. The external undervoltage lockout feature monitors the UVLO input and keeps the MAX5079 off (GATE shorted to PGND) until VUVLO is greater than 0.66V. Connect a resistive divider from IN to UVLO to GND or from AUXIN to UVLO to GND to set the external undervoltage lockout threshold. We advise setting the external UVLO 2.75V when AUXIN is not present. GATE Drive and Gate Pulldown The MAX5079's charge pump provides bias to charge the ORing MOSFET gate above IN (the MOSFET's source). GATE source current and the turn-on speed depends upon the value of CEXT (connected between C+ and C-). Typically GATE can source up to 2mA with CEXT = 0.1F. This enables VGATE to rise to over 2V above VIN in less than 10s for an ORing MOSFET gate capacitance of up to 10nF. With VIN < 5V, 12V MOSFETs can be used for better R DSON characteristics. The MAX5079 automatically selects the gate-drive voltage for Charge Pump The MAX5079 has an internal charge pump that pumps the gate-drive voltage (V GATE) high enough to fully enhance the n-channel ORing MOSFET. The charge 12 ______________________________________________________________________________________ ORing MOSFET Controller with Ultra-Fast 200ns Turn-Off VIN = 5V or VIN = 12V. For VIN 8V, the gate drive is 5V above VIN and for VIN > 8V, the gate drive is 7V above VIN. Lower gate drive means faster turn-off during faults, while higher gatedrive means lower RDSON. A fast and slow comparator monitor the voltage from IN to BUS. When this voltage crosses the negative fast- or slow-comparator threshold voltage for the blanking time duration, GATE is pulled low by an internal 2A current sink. Both comparators have an adjustable threshold voltage. GATE is pulled low if any of the following conditions are met. 1) VUVLO < 0.6V. 2) VAUXIN < 2.25V and VIN < 2.25V. 3) VOVI 0.6V. 4) V IN (V BUS - V FTH ) or V IN (V BUS - V STH ) and (VGATE - VIN) 1.8V. When the above conditions are not true and V IN VBUS, GATE is shorted to IN. To insure that the external MOSFET is quickly turned off, given the above conditions, the GATE pulldown circuitry is powered by either VIN, VAUXIN, or VBUS as long as any one is greater then 2.75V. Fast Comparator (FTH) The fast comparator has a 50ns blanking time to avoid unintentional turn-off of the ORing MOSFET during fast transients. Additionally, the fast-comparator reverse voltage threshold (VFTH) is programmable to suit the need of an individual application. Higher VFTH threshold allows for a larger glitch at BUS during a fault, but improves the noise immunity. Lower VFTH reduces glitches at BUS during a fault, however, with lower VFTH spikes at BUS or glitches at IN can be read as faults, unintentionally turning off the ORing MOSFET. Program VFTH by connecting a resistor from FTH to GND. Adjust VFTH to optimize the system performance using the following equation: - 24mV V RFTH = FTH 6.67A Slow Comparator (STH) The MAX5079 includes a slow comparator to provide glitch immunity during the hot insertion or removal of paralleled power supplies. During the hot insertion, BUS can see voltage spikes. These spikes can be interpreted as a reverse voltage across the ORing MOSFET. The amplitude of the spikes is proportional to the load step seen by the parallel power supply while the duration of the spikes depends on the loop response of the load share and PWM controller. The slow comparator has a programmable reverse voltage threshold (VSTH) as well as a programmable blanking time (tSTH). An internal transconductance amplifier converts the IN to BUS differential voltage to a current and applies it to a parallel combination of resistor and capacitor (R STH and C STH ) from STH to GND. The reverse threshold voltage (VSTH) for the slow comparator is adjusted through RSTH. Use the following equation to calculate the RSTH for a required VSTH. RSTH = 1V VSTH - 12mV ) x GM _ STH ( MAX5079 where GM_STH = 0.17mS. The internal 500k resistance from the output of the transconductance to GND can change the actual VSTH if RSTH is above 50k. In this case, see the Typical Operating Circuit to select RSTH. Once RSTH is chosen, the blanking time can be adjusted by CSTH. The delay time is: VSTH tDELAY = RSTH x CSTH x - ln 1 - + t SBL VSTH + VDD where tSBL = 0.9ms and is the default blanking time generated by an internal digital delay. Leaving STH floating results in a 12mV threshold voltage and a 0.9ms blanking time. VOD (overdrive) is the difference between actual reverse voltage (VBUS - VIN) and VSTH threshold. Overvoltage Protection Latch (OVI/OVP) OVI is the negative input to the overvoltage comparator. The positive input of this comparator is connected to the internal 0.6V reference and an open-drain output is provided at OVP. The overvoltage sensing for overvoltage protection is done at either IN or BUS. OVP VFTH can be chosen from 24mV to 400mV. Connect FTH to GND to choose the default 24mV threshold. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 13 ORing MOSFET Controller with Ultra-Fast 200ns Turn-Off latches low and the internal GATE pulldown circuitry is activated and pulls GATE low only when both of the conditions are satisfied: 1) VOVI 0.6V. 2) VIN VBUS . OVP can sink 10mA maximum. Cycle power or pull UVLO low and then high again to reset the OVP latch. GATE is pulled to PGND and remains low as long as VOVI 0.6V. When VOVI drops below 0.6V, OVP remains low. However, the MAX5079 tries to turn on the ORing MOSFET unless VIN is actively kept below the undervoltage lockout. Use OVP to drive the cathode of an optocoupler to shut down the respective power supply from the primary side (see the Typical Application Circuit of Figure 2) or fire an SCR connected from IN to PGND. MAX5079 Layout Guidelines 1) Place a 1F ceramic input bypass capacitor physically close to IN and PGND. Connect IN as close as possible to the source of the ORing MOSFET. 2) Sense the VBUS close to the bulk capacitor, away from the drain of the ORing MOSFET. When IN is shorted to ground during a fault, BUS is also pulled low through the ORing MOSFET. In the absence of VAUXIN, the MAX5079 loses both power inputs VIN and VBUS. This can cause a delayed pulldown of the gate. Sensing the BUS away from the ORing MOSFET drain, close to the BUS bulk capacitor provides power to the MAX5079 for a few microseconds, long enough to pull down the ORing MOSFET gate and isolate BUS from a shorted IN. 3) Place the charge-pump capacitor (CEXT) and the slow-comparator blanking time adjustment capacitor (CSTH) as close as possible to the MAX5079. 4) Run a thick trace from the gate of the ORing MOSFET to GATE. Power-Good Comparator (PGOOD) PGOOD output pulls low when VUVLO falls below 0.6V or VOVI goes above 0.6V. PGOOD can sink a maximum of 2mA. 14 ______________________________________________________________________________________ ORing MOSFET Controller with Ultra-Fast 200ns Turn-Off MAX5079 1V TO 13.2V VOUT1 POWER SUPPLY 1 (PS1) TO PRIMARY-SIDE SHUTDOWN VBUS VIN IN >2.75V AUXIN UVLO OVP STH C+ RSTH CSTH CEXT RFTH CGATE U1 OVI MAX5079 PGOOD GND BUS N1 VBUS BUS COMMON FTH 1V TO 13.2V VOUT2 POWER SUPPLY 2 (PS2) TO PRIMARY-SIDE SHUTDOWN VBUS VIN IN >2.75V AUXIN UVLO OVP STH C+ RSTH CSTH RFTH CEXT CGATE U2 N2 VBUS BUS CBUS OVI MAX5079 PGOOD GND FTH 1V TO 13.2V VOUT3 POWER SUPPLY 3 (PS3) TO PRIMARY-SIDE SHUTDOWN VBUS VIN IN >2.75V AUXIN UVLO OVP STH C+ RSTH CSTH RFTH CEXT CGATE U3 N3 VBUS BUS OVI MAX5079 PGOOD GND FTH Figure 2.
