LT4351 MOSFET Diode-OR Controller FEATURES DESCRIPTION n Low Loss Replacement for ORing Diode in Multiple The LT 4351 creates a near ideal diode using external Sourced Power Supplies single or back-to-back N-channel MOSFETs. This ideal n External N-Channel MOSFETs for High Current diode function permits low loss ORing of multiple power Capability sources. Power sources can easily be ORed together to n Internal Boost Regulator Supply for MOSFET increase total system power and reliability with minimal Gate Drive effect on supply voltage or efficiency. Disparate power n Wide Input Range: 1.2V to 18V supplies can be efficiently ORed together. n Fast Switching MOSFET Gate Control The IC monitors the input supply with respect to the load n Input Under and Overvoltage Detection and turns on the MOSFET(s) when the input supply is n STATUS and FAULT Outputs for Monitoring higher. If the MOSFETs R is sufficiently small, the DS(ON) n Internal MOSFET Gate Clamp LT4351 will regulate the voltage across the MOSFET(s) n Available in a 10-pin MSOP Package to 15mV. A STATUS pin indicates the MOSFET on-state. APPLICATIONS An internal boost regulator generates the MOSFET gate drive voltage. Low operating voltage allows for ORing of n Paralleled Power Supplies supplies as low as 1.2V. n Uninterrupted Supplies n High Availability Systems The LT4351 will disable power passage during undervolt- n N + 1 Redundant Power Supplies age or overvoltage conditions.
