The PI2121, with its 1.5mΩ internal MOSFET  
provides very high efficiency and low power loss  
during steady state operation, while achieving high-  
speed turn-off of the internal MOSFET during input  
power source fault conditions that cause reverse  
current flow. The PI2121 provides an active low  
fault flag output to the system during excessive  
forward current, light load, reverse current, over-  
voltage, under-voltage and over-temperature fault  
conditions. A temperature sensing function indicates  
a fault if the maximum junction temperature exceeds  
160°C. The under-voltage and over-voltage  
thresholds are programmable via an external resistor  
divider.

Rev. 1.0 Page 5 of 21  
Functional Description:  
The PI2121 integrated Cool-ORing product takes  
advantage of two different technologies combining a  
1.5mΩ on-state resistance (Rds(on)) single N-  
channel MOSFET with high density control circuitry.  
This combination provides superior density,  
minimizing PCB space to achieve an ideal ORing  
diode function, significantly reducing power  
dissipation and eliminating the need for heat sinking,  
while minimizing design complexity.  
Reverse Comparator: RVS  
The reverse comparator is the most critical  
comparator. It looks for negative voltage caused by  
reverse current. When the SN pin is 6mV higher  
than the SP pin, the reverse comparator will enable  
the BK current source to charge an internal 2pF  
capacitor. The blanking timer provides noise filtering  
for typical switching power conversion that might  
cause premature reverse current detection. Once  
the voltage across the capacitor reaches the timer  
threshold voltage (1.25V) the MOSFET will be  
turned off. The shortest blanking time is 50ns when  
BK is connected to ground. The Blanking time will  
be added to the controller delay time. The Electrical  
Specifications in the DIFFERENTIAL AMPLIFIER  
AND COMPARATOR section for Reverse Fault to  
Slave Low Delay Time “tRVS-MS or tRVS-SL” is the  
controller delay time plus the blanking time.  
The PI2121’s 1.5mΩ on-state resistance MOSFET  
used in the conduction path enables a dramatic  
reduction in power dissipation versus the  
performance of a diode used in conventional ORing  
applications due to its high forward voltage drop.  
This can allow for the elimination of complex heat  
sinking  
and  
other  
thermal  
management  
requirements. Due to the inherent characteristics of  
the integrated MOSFET, while the gate remains  
enhanced above the gate threshold voltage it will  
allow current to flow in the forward and reverse  
direction. Ideal ORing applications do not allow for  
reverse current flow, so the integrated controller has  
to be capable of very fast and accurate detection of  
reverse current caused by input power source  
failures, and turn off the gate of the MOSFET as  
quickly as possible. Once the gate voltage falls  
below the gate threshold, the MOSFET is off and the  
body diode will be reverse biased preventing reverse  
current flow and subsequent excessive voltage  
droop on the redundant bus. During forward over-  
current conditions caused by load faults, the  
controller maintains gate drive to the MOSFET to  
keep power dissipation as low as possible,  
otherwise the inherent body diode of the MOSFET  
would conduct, which has higher effective forward  
drop. Conventional ORing solutions using diodes  
offer no protection against forward over-current  
conditions. During the forward over-current  
condition, the PI2121 will provide an active-low fault  
flag to the system via the fault pin. The fault flag is  
also issued during the reverse current condition,  
light load conditions, VC under-voltage, Input Under-  
Voltage and Over-Voltage and Over-Temperature  
conditions.  
Reverse Blanking Timer: BK  
Connecting an external resistor ( BK ) between the  
R
BK pin and ground will increase the blanking time as  
shown in the following chart.  
Where:  
RBK 200KΩ  
If BK is connected to VC for slave mode operation,  
then the blanking time will be about 320ns typically,  
and total delay time will be 430ns.  
The reverse comparator has 3mV of hysteresis  
referenced to SP-SN.  
If the conditions are met for a reverse current fault,  
then the active-low fault flag output will also indicate  
a fault to the system after the 40µs fault delay time.  
Differential Amplifier:  
The PI2121 integrates a high-speed, low offset  
voltage differential amplifier to sense the difference  
between the Sense Positive (SP) pin voltage and  
Sense Negative (SN) pin voltage with high accuracy.  
The amplifier output is connected to three  
comparators:  
Reverse  
comparator,  
Forward  
comparator, and Forward over-current comparator.

PI2121  
Rev. 1.0 Page 6 of 21  
Forward Voltage Comparator: FWD  
condition when VC is lower than the VC Under-  
Voltage Threshold  
The FWD comparator detects when a forward  
current condition exists and SP is 6mV positive with  
respect to SN. When SP-SN is less than 6mV, the  
FWD comparator will assert the Fault flag to report a  
fault condition indicative of a light load “load not  
present” condition or possible shorted MOSFET.  
UV:  
The Under-Voltage (UV) input trip point can be  
programmed through an external resistor divider to  
monitor the input voltage. The UV comparator  
initiates a fault condition and pulls the FT pin low,  
when UV falls below the Under-Voltage Falling  
Threshold. If the PI2121 is configured in a floating  
application, where the GND pin is connected to the  
input voltage, the UV pin cannot detect the input  
voltage. In this case, the UV pin should be disabled  
by connecting it to the VC pin.  
Forward Over Current Comparator: FOC  
The FOC comparator indicates an excessive forward  
current condition when SP is 66mV (typical) higher  
than SN. When the FET is in the on-state and SP-  
SN is higher than 66mV (typical) the PI2121 will  
initiate a fault condition via the FT pin.  
OV:  
Slave:  
The Over-Voltage (OV) input trip point can be  
programmed through an external resistor divider to  
monitor the input voltage. The OV comparator

PI2121 current handling capability, multiple PI2121’s  
can be paralleled and synchronized by using the

initiates a fault condition and pulls the FT pin low  
when OV rises above the Over-Voltage Rising  
Threshold. If the PI2121 is configured in a floating  
application, where the GND pin is connected to the  
input voltage, the OV pin cannot detect the input  
voltage. In this case, the OV pin should be disabled  
by connecting it to the controller GND pin.  
The Slave function synchronizes multiple PI2121’s  
together and allows for localized control of each  
paralleled MOSFET. One PI2121 will be designated  
as the master and it will control the response of the  
slaved PI2121’s.

VC and Internal Voltage Regulator:  
The PI2121 has a separate input (VC) that provides

For high side applications, the VC input should be  
5V above the bus voltage to properly enhance the  
internal N-channel MOSFET.

Application Information  
The PI2121 is designed to replace ORing diodes in  
high current, low voltage redundant power  
architectures. Replacing a traditional diode with a  
PI2121 will result in significant power dissipation  
reduction as well as board space reduction,  
efficiency improvement and additional protection  
Blanking Timer:  
Connect the blanking timer pin (BK) to GND to  
program the device for the fastest reverse  
comparator response time of 160ns typical. To  
increase the blanking time, connect the BK pin to  
GND via a resistor to avoid the fault response to  
short reverse current pulses. Refer to the plot in the  
reverse comparator functional description for resistor  
values versus the reverse blanking time.

This section describes in detail the  
procedure to follow when designing with the PI2121  
Active ORing solution. Two Active ORing design  
examples are presented.  
Auxiliary Power Supply (Vaux):  
Fault Indication:  
Vaux is an independent power source required to  
supply power to the VC input. The Vaux voltage  
should be 5V higher than Vin (redundant power  
source output voltage) to fully enhance the internal  
MOSFET.  
The  
output pin is an open collector and should  
FT

VC via a resistor (10K).

A bias resistor (Rbias) is required if Vaux is higher  
than 15V. Rbias should be connected between the  
VC pin and Vaux.  
source. At the same time the energy stored at the  
drain side of the internal MOSFET will be released  
and produce a voltage higher than the load voltage.  
This event will create a high voltage difference  
between the drain and source of the MOSFET. To  
reduce the magnitude of the ringing voltage, add a  
ceramic capacitor very close to the source that can  
react to the voltage ringing frequency and another  
capacitor close to the drain. Recommended values  
for the ceramic capacitors are 1µF, refer to C5 and  
C7 in Figure 24.  
Minimize the resistor value for low Vaux voltage  
levels to avoid a voltage drop that may reduce the  
VC voltage lower than required to drive the gate of  
the internal MOSFET.  
Select the value of Rbias using the following  
equations:

For a high current application where one PI2121 can

In Active ORing circuits the MOSFET is always on in  
steady state operation and the power dissipation is  
derived from the total source current and the on-

Internal N-Channel MOSFET BVdss:  
The PI2121’s internal N-Channel MOSFET  
breakdown voltage (BVdss) is rated for 8V at 25°C  
and will degrade at -40°C to 7.75V, refer to Figure  
10. In an application when the MOSFET is turned  
off due to a reverse fault, the series parasitic  
elements in the circuit may contribute to the  
MOSFET being exposed to a voltage higher than its  
voltage rating.  
Is  
: Source Current  
Rds(on) : MOSFET on-state resistance  
Note:  
Calculate with Rds(on) at maximum MOSFET  
temperature because Rds(on) is temperature  
dependent. Refer to figure 11 for normalized  
Rds(on) values over temperature. PI2121 nominal  
Rds(on) at 25°C is 1.5mand will increase by 40%  
at 125°C junction temperature.  
In Active ORing applications when one of the input  
power sources is shorted, a large reverse current is  
sourced from the circuit output through the  
MOSFET. Depending on the output impedance of  
the system, the reverse current may reach over 60A  
in some conditions before the MOSFET is turned off.  
Such high current conditions will store energy even  
in a small parasitic element. For example: a 1nH  
parasitic inductance with 60A reverse current will  
generate 1.8µJ (½Li2). When the MOSFET is turned  
off, the stored energy will be released and produce a  
high negative voltage ringing at the MOSFET  
The Junction Temperature rise is a function of power  
dissipation and thermal resistance.

the maximum current that will flow in the resistor  
divider and maximum error due to UV and OV input

Layout Recommendation:  
Use the following general guidelines when designing  
printed circuit boards. An example of the typical  
land pattern for the PI2121 is shown in Figure 24:  
will produce a high voltage across the MOSFET.  
If it is not possible to connect the power source  
and S pins with a very short trace or common  
point, connect a capacitor (shown as C5 in  
figure 24), recommended value 1µF, close to the  
S pins and return (ground). Also for the same  
reason use C7 in figure 24 at the output.  
Make sure to have a solid ground (return) plane  
to reduce circuit parasitic.  
Connect all S pads together with a wide trace to  
reduce trace parasitics to accommodate the high  
current input, and also connect all D pads  
together with a wide trace to accommodate the  
high current output.  
Connect the SP pin to the S pins and connect  
the SN pin to D pins as shown in Figure 24.  
Use 1oz of copper or thicker if possible to  
reduce trace resistance and reduce power  
dissipation.  
The VC bypass capacitor should be located as  
close as possible to the VC and GND pins.  
Place the PI2121 and bypass capacitor on the  
same layer of the board. The VC pin and CVC  
(shown as C2 in Figure 24) PCB trace should  
not contain any vias or connect to the ground  
plane close to the GND pin.  
Keep the power source very close to the S input  
pins, any parasitic in the trace connecting the  
power source and S pins will have inductive kick  
back when there is high current flow in the trace  
and the MOSFET turns off due to reverse  
current fault conditions. The inductive kick back
