DESCRIPTION
The TPS2410/11 controller, in conjunction with an
external N-channel MOSFET, emulates the function
of a low forward-voltage diode. The TPS2410/11 can
be used to combine multiple power supplies to a
common bus in an N+1 configuration, or to combine
redundant input power buses. The TPS2410 provides
a linear turn-on control while the TPS2411 has an
on/off control method.
Applications for the TPS2410/11 include a wide range
of systems including servers and telecom. These
applications often have either N+1 redundant power
supplies, redundant power buses, or both. These
redundant power sources must have the equivalent of
a diode OR to prevent reverse current during faults
and hotplug. A TPS2410/11 and N-channel MOSFET
provide this function with less power loss than a
schottky diode.
Accurate voltage sensing, programmable fast turn-off
threshold, and input filtering allow operations to be
tailored for a wide range of implementations and bus
characteristics.
A number of monitoring features are provided to
indicate voltage bus UV/OV, ON/OFF state, and a
shorted MOSFET gate.
