LTC4370  
Two-Supply Diode-OR  
Current Balancing Controller  
FeaTures  
DescripTion  
The LTC®4370 is a two-supply current sharing controller  
which incorporates MOSFET ideal diodes. The diodes  
block reverse and shoot-through currents during start-up  
and fault conditions. Their forward voltage is adjusted to  
share the load currents between supplies. Unlike other  
sharing methods, neither a share bus nor trim pins on  
the supply are required.

Enable Inputs  
The maximum MOSFET voltage drop can be set with a  
resistor. A fast gate turn-on reduces the load voltage  
droop during supply switchover. If the input supply fails  
or is shorted, a fast turn-off minimizes reverse current  
transients.

Status outputs indicate whether the MOSFETs are on or  
off. The load sharing function can be disabled to turn the  
LTC4370 into a dual ideal diode controller.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings  
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute  
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device  
reliability and lifetime.  
Note 3: Internal clamps limit the GATE and CPO pins to a minimum of 10V  
above, and a diode below the corresponding V pin. Driving these pins to  
IN  
voltages beyond the clamp may damage the device.  
Note 2: All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device  
pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to GND unless otherwise  
specified.

Current Sharing Characteristic  
The LTC4370 load shares the two supplies by dropping  
their voltage difference across the MOSFETs in series  
with them (see Figure 1). The MOSFET on the lower sup-

should be provided to minimize glitches and ripple. This  
is important since the controller tries to compensate for  
the supply voltage differences to achieve load sharing.  
Sufficient load capacitance should also be provided to  
enhance the DC component of the load current presented  
to the load share circuit. It is also important to design  
main input supply to meet the gate drive requirements  
of the MOSFET. Figure 5 shows such a 3.3V load share  
application, where a 12V supply is connected to the CPO  
pins through a 1k resistor. The 1k limits the current into  
the CPO pin when the V pin is grounded. For the 8.7V

an appropriate choice for M1 and M2.

When the capacitances at the input and output are very  
small, rapid changes in current can cause transients that  
exceed the 24V absolute maximum rating of the V and  
OUT pins. In ORing applications, one surge suppressor  
connected from OUT to ground clamps all the inputs. In  
the absence of a surge suppressor, an output capacitance  
of 10μF is sufficient in most applications to prevent the

5V Design Example  
For a 5V, 10A system with 3% tolerance supplies and  
fast gate turn-on (Figure 1), the following components

PCB Layout Considerations  
management techniques such as sufficient drain cop-  
per area or heat sinks should be considered for optimal  
MOSFET power dissipation. See Figure 7.  
Kelvin connection of the OUT pins to the sense resis-  
tors is important for accurate current sharing. Place the  
MOSFETascloseaspossibletothesenseresistor.Keepthe  
traces to the MOSFET wide and short to minimize resistive  
losses. The PCB traces associated with the power path  
throughtheMOSFETshouldhavelowresistance. Thermal  
It is also important to put C , the bypass capacitor, as  
VCC  
close as possible between V and GND. Place C1 and  
CC  
C2 near the CPO and V pins. The COMP pin may need  
IN  
a guard ring to maintain low board leakage.
