LTC4236  
Dual Ideal Diode-OR and  
Single Hot Swap Controller  
with Current Monitor  
DescripTion  
The LTC®4236 offers ideal diode-OR and Hot Swap func-  
tions for two power rails by controlling external N-channel  
MOSFETs. MOSFETs acting as ideal diodes replace two  
highpowerSchottkydiodesandtheassociatedheatsinks,  
savingpowerandboardarea.AHotSwapcontrolMOSFET  
allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a  
livebackplanebylimitinginrushcurrent.Thesupplyoutput  
is also protected against short-circuit faults with a fast  
actingfoldbackcurrentlimitandelectroniccircuitbreaker.

LTC4236-1: Latch Off After Fault  
The LTC4236 regulates the forward voltage drop across  
theidealdiodeMOSFETstoensuresmoothcurrenttransfer  
from one supply to the other without oscillation. The ideal  
diode MOSFETs turn on quickly to reduce the load voltage  
droop during supply switchover. If the input supply fails  
or is shorted, a fast turn-off minimizes reverse current  
transients.  
LTC4236-2: Automatic Retry After Fault  
28-Pin 4mm x 5mm QFN Package  
A current sense amplifier translates the voltage across the  
senseresistortoagroundreferencedsignal.TheLTC4236  
provides adjustable start-up delay, turn-on/-off control,  
and reports fault and power good status for the supply.

The LTC4236 functions as an input supply diode-OR with

When the LTC4236 is first powered up, the gates of the  
external MOSFETs are held low, keeping them off. As the

will pull high only when the D2OFF pin is pulled low. The  
gate drive amplifier (GD1, GD2) monitors the voltage be-  
When the ideal diode MOSFET is turned on, the gate drive  
amplifier controls DGATE to servo the forward voltage  
drop (V – V  
+) across the MOSFET to 15mV. If the  
IN  
SENSE  
load current causes more than 15mV of voltage drop,  
the gate voltage rises to enhance the MOSFET. For large  
output currents, the MOSFET’s gate is driven fully on and  
+
tween the IN and SENSE pins and drives the respective  
DGATE pin. The amplifier quickly pulls up the DGATE pin,  
turning on the MOSFET for ideal diode control, when it  
senses a large forward voltage drop. With the ideal diode  
the voltage drop is equal to I  
R  
of the MOSFET.  
LOAD DS(ON)  
In the case of an input supply short-circuit when the  
MOSFETs are conducting, a large reverse current starts  
flowing from the load towards the input. The gate drive  
amplifier detects this failure condition and turns off the  
ideal diode MOSFET by pulling down the DGATE pin.  
+
MOSFETs acting as input supply diode-OR, the SENSE  
pin voltage rises to the highest of the supplies at the IN1  
and IN2 pins. An external capacitor connected at the CPO  
pin provides the charge needed to quickly turn on the  
ideal diode MOSFET. An internal charge pump charges  
up this capacitor at device power-up. The DGATE pin  
sources current from the CPO pin and sinks current into  
the IN1, D2SRC and GND pins. When the DGATE1 to IN1  
or DGATE2 to D2SRC voltage exceeds 0.7V, the respec-  
tive DSTAT pin pulls low to indicate that the ideal diode  
MOSFET is turned on.

output, the current is limited with foldback. After a delay  
set by 100µA charging the FTMR pin capacitor, the fault  
timer expires and pulls the HGATE pin low, turning off the  
Hot Swap MOSFET. The FAULT pin is also latched low. At  
this point, the DGATE pin continues to pull high and keeps  
the ideal diode MOSFET on.

10µA current source from the charge pump ramps up  
the HGATE pin. When the Hot Swap MOSFET turns on,  
Internal clamps limit both the DGATE1 and CPO1 to IN1,  
and DGATE2 and CPO2 to D2SRC voltages to 12V. The  
same clamps also limit the DGATE and CPO pins to a diode

Power to the LTC4236 is supplied from either the IN or  
OUT pins, through an internal diode-OR circuit to a low  
dropout regulator (LDO). That LDO generates a 5V supply  
SENSE pins. An active current limit amplifier (CL) servos  
the gate of the MOSFET to 25mV or less across the cur-  
rent sense resistor depending on the voltage at the FB

voltage drop. The LTC4236 minimizes this power loss by  
using external N-channel MOSFETs as the pass elements,  
allowing for a low voltage drop from the supply to the load  
when the MOSFETs are turned on. When an input source  
voltage drops below the output common supply voltage,  
the appropriate MOSFET is turned off, thereby matching  
the function and performance of an ideal diode. By adding  
a current sense resistor and a Hot Swap MOSFET after  
theparallel-connectedidealdiodeMOSFETs, theLTC4236  
enhances the ideal diode performance with inrush current  
limiting and overcurrent protection (see Figure 1). This  
allows the board to be safely inserted and removed from

The external MOSFETs can be turned off by a variety of  
conditions. A normal turn-off for the Hot Swap MOSFET is  
initiated by pulling the ON pin below its 1.155V threshold  
(80mV ON pin hysteresis), or pulling the EN pin above its  
1.235V threshold. Additionally, an overcurrent fault that  
exceeds the fault timer period also turns off the Hot Swap  
MOSFET. Normally, the LTC4236 turns off the MOSFET by  
pulling the HGATE pin to ground with a 2mA current sink.

Auto-Retry after a Fault (LTC4236-2)

period, the fault latch is cleared and FAULT pulls high.  
The HGATE pin voltage is allowed to start up and turn on  
the Hot Swap MOSFET. If the output short persists, the  
supply powers up into a short with active current limiting

The ON pin functions as a turn-on control and an input  
supply monitor. A resistive divider connected between  
the supply diode-OR output (SENSE ) and GND at the  
ON pin monitors the supply for undervoltage condition.  
The undervoltage threshold is set by proper selection of  
the resistors at the ON rising threshold voltage (1.235V).

An undervoltage fault occurs if the diode-OR output sup-  
ply falls below its undervoltage threshold. If the ON pin  
voltage falls below 1.155V but remains above 0.6V, the  
Hot Swap MOSFET is turned off by a 2mA pull-down from  
HGATE to ground. The Hot Swap MOSFET turns back on  
instantly without the debounce cycle when the diode-OR  
output supply rises above its undervoltage threshold.  
However, if the ON pin voltage drops below 0.6V, it turns  
off the Hot Swap MOSFET and clears the fault latch. The  
Hot Swap MOSFET turns back on only after a debounce  
cycle when the diode-OR output supply is restored above  
its undervoltage threshold.  
The PWRGD pin pulls low when the FB power good com-

40µs later, DGATE also starts ramping up with CPO. The

the IN1 or D2SRC pin, while the final DGATE pin voltage

Next, select the values for the resistive divider at the ON  
pin that defines the undervoltage threshold of 9.7V for the

12V supply at SENSE . Since the leakage current for the  
ON pin can be as high as 1µA, the total resistance in the

offset error. Calculate the bottom resistor R1 based on  
the following equation to obtain less than 0.2% error  
due to leakage current.  
Connect the IN and OUT pin traces as close as possible to  
the MOSFETs’ terminals. Keep the traces to the MOSFETs

It is also important to place the bypass capacitor C1 for  
from the 12V backup supply (V ) only when the primary  
IN2  
the INTV pin, as close as possible between INTV and  
supply is unavailable. As long as V is above the 4.7V  
CC

IN1  
GND. Also place C2 near the CPO1 and IN1 pins, C3 near  
threshold set by the R6-R7 divider at the D2OFF pin, M  
D2  
the CPO2 and D2SRC pins, and C4 near the REG and  
and M are turned off, allowing V to be connected to  
D3  
IN1  
+
SENSE pins. The transient voltage suppressors Z1 and  
the output through M . The common source terminals of  
D1  
Z2, when used, should be mounted close to the LTC4236  
using short lead lengths.  
M
and M are connected to D2SRC pin, which allows  
D2 D3  
the body-diode of M to reverse block the current flow  
D2  
from the higher backup supply (V ) to the output. If the  
IN2  
Power Prioritizer  
primary supply fails and V drops below 4.3V, D2OFF is  
IN1  
allowed to turn on M and M , and connect the V to  
D2  
D3  
IN2  
D2  
Figure 8 shows an application where the IN1 supply is  
passed to the output on the basis of priority, rather than  
simply allowing the highest voltage to prevail. This is  
achieved by connecting a resistive divider from IN1 at the  
D2OFF pin to suppress the turn-on of the back-to-back  
the output. When V returns to a viable voltage, M and  
IN1  
M
D3  
turn off, and the output is connected to V . Adding  
IN1  
R5 in the R6-R7 divider and bypassing it with DSTAT2 pin  
control allows the D2OFF pin hysteresis to be increased  
from 20mV to 100mV. The resistive divider at the ON pin  
ideal diodeMOSFETs, M and M intheIN2 powerpath.

sets the SENSE undervoltage threshold to 4.1V.  
In this application, the 5V primary supply (V ) is passed  
IN1  
to the output whenever it is available; power is drawn
