9 / 12 page 9 LTC4412HV sn4412hv 4412hvfs Automatic PowerPath Control The applications shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3 are automatic ideal diode controllers that require no assistance from a microcontroller. Each of these will automatically connect the higher supply voltage, after accounting for certain diode forward voltage drops, to the load with application of the higher supply voltage. Figure 1 illustrates an application circuit for automatic switchover of a load between a battery and a wall adapter or other power input. With application of the battery, the load will initially be pulled up by the drain-source diode of the P-channel MOSFET. As the LTC4412HV comes into action, it will control the MOSFET’s gate to turn it on and reduce the MOSFET’s voltage drop from a diode drop to 20mV. The system is now in the low loss forward regula- tion mode. Should the wall adapter input be applied, the Schottky diode will pull up the SENSE pin, connected to the load, above the battery voltage and the LTC4412HV will turn the MOSFET off. The STAT pin will then sink current indicating an auxiliary input is connected. The battery is now supplying no load current and all the load current flows through the Schottky diode. A silicon diode could be used instead of the Schottky, but will result in higher power dissipation and heating due to the higher forward voltage drop. Figure 2 illustrates an application circuit for automatic switchover of load between a battery and a wall adapter that features lowest power loss. Operation is similar to Figure 1 except that an auxiliary P-channel MOSFET replaces the diode. The STAT pin is used to turn on the MOSFET once the SENSE pin voltage exceeds the battery voltage by 20mV. When the wall adapter input is applied, the drain-source diode of the auxiliary MOSFET will turn on first to pull up the SENSE pin and turn off the primary MOSFET followed by turning on of the auxiliary MOSFET. Once the auxiliary MOSFET has turned on the voltage drop across it can be very low depending on the MOSFET’s characteristics. Figure 3 illustrates an application circuit for the automatic switchover of a load between a battery and a wall adapter in the comparator mode. It also shows how a battery charger can be connected. This circuit differs from Figure 1 in the way the SENSE pin is connected. The SENSE pin is connected directly to the auxiliary power input and not the load. This change forces the LTC4412HV’s control circuitry to operate in an open-loop comparator mode. While the battery supplies the system, the GATE pin voltage will be forced to its lowest clamped potential, instead of being regulated to maintain a 20mV drop across the MOSFET. This has the advantages of minimizing power loss in the MOSFET by minimizing its RON and not having the influence of a linear control loop’s dynamics. A possible disadvantage is if the auxiliary input ramps up slow enough the load voltage will initially droop before TYPICAL APPLICATIO S VIN GND CTL SENSE GATE STAT 1 2 3 6 5 4 LTC4412HV PRIMARY P-CHANNEL MOSFET COUT TO LOAD STATUS OUTPUT DROPS WHEN A WALL ADAPTER IS PRESENT 470k 4412HV F02 BATTERY CELL(S) WALL ADAPTER INPUT * * AUXILIARY P-CHANNEL MOSFET *DRAIN-SOURCE DIODE OF MOSFET Figure 2.
