FireWire Current Limiter and Low-Drop  
ORing Switch Controller  
MAX5943  
General Description  
Features  
o Provides Safe Hot Swap for 7.5V to 37V Power  
The MAX5943 is a fully integrated power-management  
®
Supplies  
IC for FireWire applications. This device controls two  
external power n-channel MOSFETs to regulate current  
from the input power supply to the load and performs  
low-voltage-drop, power-supply ORing. The MAX5943  
operates over a 7.5V to 37V input range and provides  
inrush and output current limit in addition to a diode  
ORing function suitable for FireWire applications. The  
MAX5943 FireWire/IEEE 1394™ protective circuit  
(Figure 12) is UL® recognized.  
o UL-Recognized FireWire/IEEE 1394 Protective  
Circuit  
o Low-Drop Power ORing with Ultra-Fast Turn-Off  
o Programmable Active Current Limit (MAX5943A)  
o Programmable Circuit Breaker  
(MAX5943B–MAX5943E)  
o
5% Current-Limit Sensing Accuracy  
The MAX5943 allows the safe insertion and removal of  
FireWire peripherals into a live FireWire port by providing  
inrush current control and an output current-limiting func-  
tion. The ORing feature provides a very efficient way to  
protect the FireWire port when connected to another  
FireWire peripheral that sources a higher voltage. By turn-  
ing off both external MOSFETS, the MAX5943 provides a  
true bidirectional load disconnect. A low-current shut-  
down mode disables the MAX5943, resulting in less than  
10µA supply current. A pin-selectable input allows  
latched or autoretry fault management after a fault.  
o Programmable Current-Limit/Circuit-Breaker  
Timeout  
o Fast Current-Limit Response to Output Short-  
Circuit Conditions (MAX5943A)  
o Drives External N-Channel Power MOSFETs  
o Overcurrent Fault Status Output  
o Latched or Autoretry Overcurrent Fault  
Management  
o 10µA Shutdown Current  
o ON/OFF Control Allows Undervoltage Lockout  
The MAX5943A features a current-limit function that  
actively limits the current drawn by the load with a pro-  
grammable timeout. The MAX5943B–MAX5943E do not  
actively limit the load current but provide a circuit-breaker  
function. See the Selector Guide for the default and pro-  
grammable circuit-breaker timeouts.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional  
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to  
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 6: The tristate (“floating”) logic condition will be entered if the pin current is within these limits.  
Note 7: R is connected from TIM to GND. The maximum timeout period is enforced to prevent arbitrarily long operation in cur-  
TIM  
rent-limit mode. Therefore, the relationship between resistor value and timeout changes for large values of R . See  
TIM  
Current-Limit Timeout vs. R  
in the Typical Operating Characteristics for nominal values.

inputs to be connected to IN without drawing additional  
current from the supply.  
Detailed Description  
The MAX5943 performs hot-swapping, power-supply  
ORing, and current limiting for FireWire power-supply  
applications. The MAX5943 incorporates two MOSFET  
drivers (GATE1 and GATE2) to control two external  
n-channel power MOSFETs to perform low-voltage-drop  
power-supply ORing (GATE1) and hot swapping and  
current limiting (GATE2) from the input power supply to  
the load. A sense resistor provides accurate current-  
limiting/circuit-breaker function. GATE1 and GATE2  
provide true load disconnect to prevent current flowing  
from either direction between IN and OUT.  
When the input supply voltage (V ) is above 7.5V and  
IN  
V
is above the V  
threshold, the MAX5943  
ON  
ON_REF  
turns on, sourcing 45µA current from GATE2 (current  
regulation) to enhance Q2 slowly. For the MAX5943A, if  
the voltage across the current-sense resistor, V , is  
IS  
greater than the programmed current-limit threshold,  
the MAX5943A regulates the GATE2 voltage to limit the  
load current at the current-limit level so that V is equal  
IS  
to V . In normal operation, V drops below V and  
TH  
IS  
TH  
GATE2 rises to approximately 5.5V above OUT. Since  
the MAX5943B–MAX5943E do not regulate the load  
current, a capacitor can be added from GATE2 to GND  
to limit inrush current during startup (see the  
Applications Information section).  
The MAX5943 remains in low-current shutdown mode  
when V  
is below the 0.4V threshold. Low-current  
ON  
shutdown mode disables the MAX5943, resulting in  
less than 10µA supply current. Shutdown places all

The MAX5943 current-limit/circuit-breaker timeout is  
programmable by connecting an external resistor from  
TIM to GND. The MAX5943A has a default 2ms current-  
limit timeout. The MAX5943B, MAX5943C, MAX5943D,  
and MAX5943E have 0.5ms, 1ms, 2ms, and 4ms  
default circuit-breaker timeouts, respectively.

Power-Supply ORing (ONQ1 = Low)  
GATE1 controls the MAX5943 ORing function. The

Initially, GATE1 is off (ONQ1 = low) and the load current  
conducts through the body diode of Q1 (Figure 4).

current shutdown mode.

FAULT is a high-voltage open-drain output that pulls low  
when a current-limit/circuit-breaker fault shutdown has  
occurred. FAULT remains low until the next startup cycle.  
Undervoltage Lockout  
The MAX5943 operates from 7.5V to 37V and has a  
default 6.5V undervoltage lockout threshold. The external  
MOSFETs remain off as long as V > 6.5V and V

LATCH to IN for latch fault management or connect  
LATCH to GND for autoretry fault management. In latch

Startup Consideration  
Optimizing for Short-Circuit Conditions  
MAX5943A  
During startup, a large capacitor at OUT may result in a  
charging current equivalent to the current limit. Choose a  
current-limit timeout that will allow a successful startup.  
The timeout can be approximated using the following  
equation:  
Choosing R  
SENSE  
Select a sense resistor that causes the circuit-breaker

Under short-circuit conditions, it is imperative that the  
appropriate sense resistor is utilized. Operating the  
MAX5943B–MAX5943E at high input voltages can  
cause very large currents during the circuit-breaker  
timeout period. The peak current will be limited by the  
saturation current of Q2 or the series resistance in the  
MAX5943 commences by charging the output capacitor  
with 1.5A for approximately 2.7ms. Therefore, the  
MAX5943A current-limit timeout period (t  
greater than 2.7ms for a successful startup. Otherwise,  
the MAX5943A powers up in fault management mode  
by exceeding the current-limit timeout period.

TOTAL  
MAX5943B–MAX5943E  
The MAX5943B–MAX5943E do not control the inrush  
current during startup. Inrush current control can be  
implemented by placing a resistor and capacitor at  
GATE2 (Figure 10) to slowly ramp up the gate voltage,  
thus limiting the inrush current. The inrush current can  
be approximated using the following formula:  
Using a 30mΩ on-resistance MOSFET at GATE1 and  
GATE2 and a 30mΩ sense resistor results in a short-cir-  
cuit current approximately equal to:

large transients, connect capacitors from the gate to
