LTC4412HV
TM
36V, Low Loss PowerPath
Controller in ThinSOT
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LTC®4412HV controls an external P-channel MOSFET
to create a near ideal diode function for power switchover
or load sharing. This permits highly efficient OR’ing of
multiple power sources for extended battery life and low
self- heating. When conducting, the voltage drop across
the MOSFET is typically 20mV. For applications with a
wall adapter or other auxiliary power source, the load
is automatically disconnected from the battery when the
auxiliary source is connected. Two or more LTC4412HVs
may be interconnected to allow load sharing between
multiple batteries or charging of multiple batteries from
a single charger. The LTC4412HV is an extended supply
and temperature range version of the LTC4412.

The wide supply operating range supports operation from
one to eight Li-Ion cells in series. The low quiescent cur-
rent (11µA typical) is independent of the load current. The
gate driver includes an internal voltage clamp for MOSFET
protection.

APPLICATIONS
The STAT pin can be used to enable an auxiliary P-channel
MOSFET power switch when an auxiliary supply is
detected. This pin may also be used to indicate to a micro
controller that an auxiliary supply is connected. The con-
trol (CTL) input enables the user to force the primary
MOSFET off and the STAT pin low.
