Control External FET for N+1 and ORing
Wide Supply Voltage Range of 3 V to 16.5 V
Controls Buses From 0.8 V to 16.5 V
Linear or On/Off Control Method
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.
Internal Charge Pump for N-Channel MOSFET
Rapid Device Turnoff Protects Bus Integrity
Positive Gate Control on Hot Insertion
Soft Turn on Reduces Bus Transients
Input Voltage Monitoring
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.
N-channel MOSFET provide this function with less
power loss than a schottky diode.

High Availability Systems
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.
