4355 is a positive voltage ideal diode-OR controller
that drives two external N-channel MOSFETs. Forming the
diode-OR with N-channel MOSFETs instead of Schottky
diodes reduces power consumption, heat dissipation and
PC board area.
With the LTC4355, power sources can easily be ORed
together to increase total system reliability. The LTC4355
can diode-OR two positive supplies or the return paths of
two negative supplies, such as in a –48V system.
In the forward direction the LTC4355 controls the voltage
drop across the MOSFET to ensure smooth current transfer
from one path to the other without oscillation. If a power
source fails or is shorted, fast turnoff minimizes reverse
current transients.
Power fault detection indicates if the input supplies are
not in regulation, the inline fuses are blown, or the
voltages across the MOSFETs are greater than the fault
threshold.

pin FuncTions
(DE/S Packages)
EXPOSED PAD (Pin 15, DE Package Only):
Exposed pad
may be left open or connected to GND.
FUSEFLTx
(Pins 11,12/13,14):
Fuse Fault Outputs.
Open-drain output that pulls to GND when V
INx
< 3.5V,
indicating that the fuse has blown open. Otherwise, this
output is high-impedance. Connect to GND if unused.
GATEx (Pins 2,4/2,6):
Gate Drive Outputs. The GATE
pins pull high, enhancing the N-channel MOSFET when
the load current creates more than 25mV of voltage drop
across the MOSFET. When the load current is small,
the gates are actively driven to maintain 25mV across
the MOSFET. If the reverse current develops more than
–25mV of voltage drop across a MOSFET, a fast pulldown
circuit quickly connects the GATE pin to the IN pin, turning
off the MOSFET. Limit the capacitance between the GATE
and IN pins to less than 0.1µF.
GND (7/9):
Device Ground.
INx (Pins 1,5/1,7):
Input Voltages and GATE Fast Pulldown
Returns. The IN pins are the anodes of the ideal diodes
and connect to the sources of the N-channel MOSFETs.
The voltages sensed at these pins are used to control the
source-drain voltages across the MOSFETs and are used
by the fault detection circuits that drive the
PWRFLT,
FUSEFLT,
and
VDSFLT
pins. The GATE fast pulldown cur-
rent is returned through the IN pins. Connect these pins
as close to the MOSFET sources as possible. Connect to
OUT if unused.
MONx (Pins 9,14/11,16):
Input Supply Monitors. These
pins are used to sense the input supply voltages. Connect
these pins to external resistive dividers between the input
supplies and GND. If V
MONx
falls below 1.23V, the
PWRFLTx
pin pulls to GND. Connect to GND if unused.
OUT (Pin 3/4):
Drain Voltage Sense and Positive Sup-
ply Input. OUT is the diode-OR output of IN1 and IN2. It
connects to the common drain connection of the N-chan-
nel MOSFETs. The voltage sensed at this pin is used to
control the source-drain voltages across the MOSFETs
and is used by the fault detection circuits that drive the
PWRFLT
and
VDSFLT
pins. The LTC4355 is powered from
the OUT pin.
PWRFLTx
(Pins 10,13/12,15):
Power Fault Outputs.
Open-drain output that pulls to GND when V
MONx
falls
below 1.23V or the forward voltage across the MOSFET
exceeds
DV
SD(FLT)
. When V
MONx
is above 1.23V and
the forward voltage across the MOSFET is less than
DV
SD(FLT)
,
PWRFLTx
is high-impedance. Connect to GND
if unused.
SET (Pin 8/10):
DV
SD(FLT)
Threshold Configuration In-
put. Tying SET to GND, to a 100kW resistor connected
to GND, or leaving SET open configures the
DV
SD(FLT)
forward voltage fault threshold to 250mV, 500mV, or 1.5V
respectively. When the voltage across a MOSFET exceeds
DV
SD(FLT)
, the
VSDFLT
pin and at least one of the
PWRFLT
pins pull to GND.
VDSFLT
(Pin 6, DE Package Only):
MOSFET Fault Output.
Open-drain output that pulls to GND when the forward volt-
