5 LTC4414 4414fc stat (pin 1): open-drain output status pin. when the sense pin is pulled above the v in pin with an auxiliary power source by v rto or more, the reverse turn-off threshold (v rto ) is reached. the stat pin will then go from an open state to a current sink (i s(snk) ). the stat pin current sink can be used, along with an external resistor, to turn on an auxiliary p-channel power switch and/or signal the presence of an auxiliary power source to a microcontroller. ctl (pin 2): digital control input. a logical high input (v ih ) on this pin forces the gate to source voltage of the primary p-channel mosfet power switch to a small voltage (v goff ). this will turn the mosfet off and no current will flow from the primary power input at v in if the mosfet is configured so that the drain to source diode does not forward bias. a high input also forces the open-drain stat pin on. if the stat pin is used to control an auxiliary p-channel power switch, then a second active source of power, such as an ac wall adaptor, will be connected to the load (see appli- cations information). an internal current sink will pull the ctl pin voltage to ground (logical low) if the pin is open. gnd (pin 3): ground. provides a power return for all the internal circuits. uu u pi fu ctio s sense (pin 6): power sense input pin. supplies power to the internal circuitry and is a voltage sense input to the internal analog controller (the other input to the controller is the v in pin). this input is usually supplied power from an auxiliary source such as an ac adapter or back-up battery which also supplies current to the load. v in (pin 7): primary input supply voltage. supplies power to the internal circuitry and is one of two voltage sense inputs to the internal analog controller (the other input to the controller is the sense pin). this input is usually supplied power from a battery or other power source which supplies current to the load. this pin can be by- passed to ground with a capacitor in the range of 0.1 f to 10 f if needed to suppress load transients. gate (pin 8): primary p-channel mosfet power switch gate drive pin. this pin is directed by the power controller to maintain a forward regulation voltage (v fr ) of 20mv between the v in and sense pins when an auxiliary power source is not present. when an auxiliary power source is connected, the gate pin will pull up to the sense pin voltage, turning off the primary p-channel power switch. block diagra w + 7 6 source power voltage/current reference 0.5v power linear gate driver and voltage clamp a1 v in sense analog controller + c1 2 3 ctl 3.5 a on/off *drain-source diode of mosfet status output 4414 bd on/off stat v cc gate 1 8 gnd output to load selector + primary supply + auxiliary supply + *
6 LTC4414 4414fc operatio u operation can best be understood by referring to the block diagram, which illustrates the internal circuit blocks along with the few external components, and the graph that accompanies the typical application drawing on the front page of the data sheet. the terms primary and auxiliary are arbitrary and may be changed to suit the application. operation begins when either or both power sources are applied and the ctl control pin is below the input low voltage of 0.35v (v il ). if only the primary supply is present, the power source selector will power the LTC4414 from the v in pin. amplifier a1 will deliver a current to the analog controller block that is proportional to the voltage difference in the v in and sense pins. while the voltage on sense is lower than v in ?20mv (v fr ), the analog controller will instruct the linear gate driver and voltage clamp block to pull down the gate pin voltage and turn on the external p-channel mosfet. the dynamic pull-down current of 300 a (i g(snk) ) stops when the gate voltage reaches ground or the gate clamp voltage. the gate clamp voltage is 8.5v (v g(on) ) below the higher of v in or v sense . as the sense voltage pulls up to v in ?20mv, the LTC4414 will regulate the gate voltage to maintain a 20mv differ- ence between v in and v sense which is also the v ds of the mosfet. the system is now in the forward regulation mode and the load will be powered from the primary supply. as the load current varies, the gate voltage will be controlled to maintain the 20mv difference. if the load current exceeds the p-channel mosfet? ability to deliver the current with a 20mv v ds the gate voltage will clamp, the mosfet will behave as a fixed resistor and the forward voltage will increase slightly. while the mosfet is on the stat pin is an open circuit. when an auxiliary supply is applied, the sense pin will be pulled higher than the v in pin through the external diode. the power source selector will power the LTC4414 from the sense pin. as the sense voltage pulls above v in ?20mv, the analog controller will instruct the linear gate driver and voltage clamp block to pull the gate voltage up to turn off the p-channel mosfet. when the voltage on sense is higher than v in + 20mv (v rto ), the analog controller will instruct the linear gate driver and voltage clamp block to rapidly pull the gate pin voltage to the sense pin voltage. this action will quickly finish turning off the external p-channel mosfet if it hasn? already turned completely off. for a clean transition, the reverse turn-off threshold has hysteresis to prevent uncertainty. the system is now in the reverse turn-off mode. power to the load is being delivered through the external diode and no current is drawn from the primary supply. the external diode provides protection in case the auxiliary supply is below the primary supply, sinks current to ground or is connected reverse polarity. during the reverse turn-off mode of operation the stat pin will sink a current (i s(snk) ) if connected. note that the external mosfet is wired so that the drain to source diode will momentarily forward bias when power is first applied to v in and will become reverse biased when an auxiliary supply is applied. when the ctl (control) input is asserted high, the external mosfet will have its gate to source voltage forced to a small voltage v g(off) and the stat pin will sink a mini- mum of 50 a of current if connected. this feature is useful to allow control input switching of the load between two power sources as shown in figure 3 or as a switchable high side driver as shown in figure 7. a 3.5 a internal pull- down current (i ctl ) on the ctl pin will insure a low level input if the pin should become open.
7 LTC4414 4414fc applicatio s i for atio wu uu introduction the system designer will find the LTC4414 useful in a variety of cost and space sensitive power control applica- tions that include low loss diode or?ng, fully automatic switchover from a primary to an auxiliary source of power, microcontroller controlled switchover from a primary to an auxiliary source of power, charging of multiple batter- ies from a single charger and high side power switching. external p-channel mosfet transistor selection important parameters for the selection of mosfets are the maximum drain-source voltage v ds(max), threshold voltage v gs(vt) and on-resistance r ds(on) . the maximum allowable drain-source voltage, v ds(max), must be high enough to withstand the maximum drain- source voltage seen in the application. the maximum gate drive voltage for the primary mosfet is set by the smaller of the v in supply voltage or the internal clamping voltage v g(on). a logic level mosfet is com- monly used, but if a low supply voltage limits the gate voltage, a sub-logic level threshold mosfet should be considered. the maximum gate drive voltage for the auxiliary mosfet, if used, is determined by the external resistor connected to the stat pin. as a general rule, select a mosfet with a low enough r ds(on) to obtain the desired v ds while operating at full load current and an achievable v gs . the mosfet normally operates in the linear region and acts like a voltage controlled resistor. if the mosfet is grossly undersized, it can enter the saturation region and a large v ds may result. however, the drain-source diode of the mosfet, if forward biased, will limit v ds . a large v ds , combined with the load current, will likely result in excessively high mosfet power dissipation. keep in mind that the LTC4414 will regulate the forward voltage drop across the primary mosfet at 20mv if r ds(on) is low enough. the required r ds(on) can be calculated by dividing 0.02v by the load current in amps. achieving forward regulation will mini- mize power loss and heat dissipation, but it is not a necessity. if a forward voltage drop of more than 20mv is acceptable then a smaller mosfet can be used, but must be sized compatible with the higher power dissipation. care should be taken to ensure that the power dissipated is never allowed to rise above the manufacturer? recom- mended maximum level. the auxiliary mosfet power switch, if used, has similar considerations, but its v gs can be tailored by resistor selection. when choosing the resistor value consider the full range of stat pin current (i s(snk) ) that may flow through it. v in and sense pin bypass capacitors many types of capacitors, ranging from 0.1 f to 10 f and located close to the LTC4414, will provide adequate v in bypassing if needed. voltage droop can occur at the load during a supply switchover because some time is required to turn on the mosfet power switch. factors that deter- mine the magnitude of the voltage droop include the supply rise and fall times, the mosfet? characteristics, the value of c out and the load current. droop can be made insignificant by the proper choice of c out , since the droop is inversely proportional to the capacitance. bypass ca- pacitance for the load also depends on the application? dynamic load requirements and typically ranges from 1 f to 47 f. in all cases, the maximum droop is limited to the drain source diode forward drop inside the mosfet. caution must be exercised when using multilayer ceramic capacitors. because of the self resonance and high q characteristics of some types of ceramic capacitors, high voltage transients can be generated under some start-up conditions such as connecting a supply input to a hot power source. to reduce the q and prevent these tran- sients from exceeding the LTC4414? absolute maximum voltage rating, the capacitor? esr can be increased by adding up to several ohms of resistance in series with the ceramic capacitor. refer to application note 88. the selected capacitance value and capacitor? esr can be verified by observing v in and sense for acceptable volt- age transitions during dynamic conditions over the full load current range. this should be checked with each power source as well. ringing may indicate an incorrect bypass capacitor value and/or too low an esr. v in and sense pin usage since the analog controller? thresholds are small ( 20mv), the v in and sense pin connections should be made in a
8 LTC4414 4414fc way to avoid unwanted i ?r drops in the power path. both pins are protected from negative voltages. gate pin usage the gate pin controls the external p-channel mosfet connected between the v in and sense pins when the load current is supplied by the power source at v in . in this mode of operation, the internal current source, which is responsible for pulling the gate pin up, is limited to a few microamps (i g(src) ). if external opposing leakage cur- rents exceed this, the gate pin voltage will reach the clamp voltage (v gon ) and v ds will be smaller. the internal current sink, which is responsible for pulling the gate pin down, has a higher current capability (i g(snk) ). with an auxiliary supply input pulling up on the sense pin and exceeding the v in pin voltage by 20mv (v rto ), the device enters the reverse turn-off mode and a much stronger current source is available to oppose external leakage currents and turn off the mosfet (v goff ). while in forward regulation, if the on resistance of the mosfet is too high to maintain forward regulation, the gate pin will maximize the mosfet? v gs to that of the clamp voltage (v gon ). the clamping action takes place between v in and the gate pin. stat pin usage during normal operation, the open-drain stat pin can be biased at any voltage between ground and 36v regardless of the supply voltage to the LTC4414. it is usually con- nected to a resistor whose other end connects to a voltage source. in the forward regulation mode, the stat pin will be open (i s(off) ). when a wall adaptor input or other auxiliary supply is connected to that input, and the voltage on sense is higher than v in + 20mv (v rto ), the system is in the reverse turn-off mode. during this mode of opera- tion the stat pin will sink at least 50 a of current (i s(snk) ). this will result in a voltage change across the resistor, depending on the resistance, which is useful to turn on an auxiliary p-channel mosfet or signal to a microcontroller that an auxiliary power source is con- nected. external leakage currents, if significant, should be accounted for when determining the voltage across the resistor when the stat pin is either on or off. ctl pin usage this is a digital control input pin with low threshold voltages (v il, v ih ) for use with logic powered from as little as 1v. during normal operation, the ctl pin can be biased at any voltage between ground and 36v, regardless of the supply voltage to the LTC4414. a logical high input on this pin forces the gate to source voltage of the primary p-channel mosfet power switch to a small voltage (v goff ). this will turn the mosfet off and no current will flow from the primary power input at v in if the mosfet is configured so that the drain to source diode is not forward biased. the high input also forces the stat pin to sink at least 50 a of current (i s(snk) ). see the typical applications for various examples on using the stat pin. a 3.5 a internal pull- down current (i ctl ) on the ctl pin will insure a logical low level input if the pin should be open. protection most of the application circuits shown provide some protection against supply faults such as shorted, low or reversed supply inputs. the fault protection does not protect shorted supplies but can isolate other supplies and the load from faults. a necessary condition of this protec- tion is for all components to have sufficient breakdown voltages. in some cases, if protection of the auxiliary input (sometimes referred to as the wall adapter input) is not required, then the series diode or mosfet may be eliminated. internal protection for the LTC4414 is provided to prevent damaging pin currents and excessive internal self heating during a fault condition. these fault conditions can be a result of v in , sense, gate or ctl pins shorted to ground or to a power source that is within the pin? absolute maximum voltage limits. both the v in and sense pins are capable of being taken significantly below ground without current drain or damage to the ic (see absolute maximum voltage limits). this feature allows for limited reverse- battery condition without current drain or damage. this internal protection is not designed to prevent overcurrent or overheating of external components. applicatio s i for atio wu uu
