100% Duty Cycle Pass-Through Mode During
tects loads from high voltage transients. High efficiency
switching allows high output currents, small solution sizes,
and high reliability. During an input overvoltage event, the
LTC7862 controls the gates of two external N-channel
MOSFETs to act as a switching DC/DC step-down regu-
lator. This maintains the output voltage at a safe value,
allowing the loads to continue to operate through the input
overvoltage event. During normal operation, the LTC7862
turns on the top external N-channel MOSFET continuously,
passing the input voltage through to the output, with mini-
mal voltage drop. Using a fast peak current comparator,
the LTC7862 also limits the maximum output current to
protect against overcurrent and short-circuit faults.

An adjustable timer limits the time that the LTC7862 can
spend switching during an overvoltage, overcurrent, or
startup condition. When the timer expires, the external
MOSFETs are turned off for a cooldown period and then
the LTC7862 restarts. By strictly limiting how long the
LTC7862 can switch, when the power loss is relatively
high, the components and thermal design can be opti-
mized for normal pass-through operation while still safely
operating through high voltage input surges and/or over-
current events.
