conductance is needed, an external P-channel MOSFET
transistor can be added from BAT to V_OUT.
When an external P-channel MOSFET transistor is pres-
ent, the GATE pin of the LTC3566 family drives its gate for
automatic ideal diode control. The source of the external
P-channel MOSFET should be connected to V_OUT and the
drain should be connected to BAT. Capable of driving a
1nF load, the GATE pin can control an external P-channel
MOSFET transistor having an on-resistance of 40mΩ or
lower.
Suspend LDO
If the LTC3566 family is configured for USB suspend mode,
the switching regulator is disabled and the suspend LDO
provides power to the V_OUT pin (presuming there is power
available to V_BUS). This LDO will prevent the battery from
running down when the portable product has access to
a suspended USB port. Regulating at 4.6V, this LDO only
becomes active when the switching converter is disabled
(suspended). In accordance with the USB specification, the
input to the LDO is current limited so that it will not exceed
the 500μA low power suspend specification. If the load
on V_OUT exceeds the suspend current limit, the additional
current will come from the battery via the ideal diode.
3.3V Always-On Supply
The LTC3566 family includes a low quiescent current low
dropout regulator that is always powered. This LDO can be
used to provide power to a system pushbutton controller,
standby microcontroller or real time clock. Designed to
deliver up to 25mA, the always-on LDO requires at least
a 1μF low impedance ceramic bypass capacitor for com-
pensation. The LDO is powered from V_OUT, and therefore
will enter dropout at loads less than 25mA as V_OUT falls
near 3.3V. If the LDO3V3 output is not used, it should be
disabled by connecting it to V_OUT.
V_BUS Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
An internal undervoltage lockout circuit monitors V_BUS and
keeps the PowerPath switching regulator off until V_BUS
rises above 4.30V and is about 200mV above the battery
voltage. Hysteresis on the UVLO turns off the regulator if
V_BUS drops below 4.00V or to within 50mV of BAT. When
this happens, system power at V_OUT will be drawn from
the battery via the ideal diode.
