Analog Devices Inc. LTC44xx Monolithic PowerPath™ Prioritizers

Analog Devices Inc. LTC44xx Monolithic PowerPath™ Prioritizers feature a low operating current to provide a backup switchover for keeping circuitry alive during power loss conditions. The Analog Devices LTC44xx selects the highest priority valid supply from two inputs. Unlike diode-OR products, little current is drawn from the inactive supply even if its voltage is greater than the active supply.

Features

  • Selects highest priority valid supply from two inputs
  • Wide 1.8V to 18V operating range
  • Internal dual 2Ω, 0.5A switches
  • Low 3.6μA operating current
  • Low 320nA V2 current when V1 connected to OUT
  • Blocks reverse and cross conduction currents
  • Reverse supply protection to -15V
  • Built-in V2 test with optional V2 disconnect
  • ±1.5% accurate adjustable switchover threshold
  • V2 freshness seal/ship mode
  • ±2.3% accurate V2 monitor and comparator
  • Overcurrent and thermal protection
  • Thermally enhanced 10-pin or 12-pin 3mm × 3mm
  • DFN and 12-lead exposed pad MSOP packages

Applications

  • Low power battery backup
  • Portable equipment
  • Point-of-sale (POS) equipment
