Control External FET for N+1 and ORing
DESCRIPTION
Controls Buses From 3 V to 16.5 V
External Enable
The TPS2419 controller, in conjunction with an
external N-channel MOSFET, provides the reverse
current protection of an ORing diode with the
efficiency of a MOSFET. The TPS2419 can be used
to combine multiple power supplies to a common bus
in an N+1 configuration, or to combine redundant
input power buses.
N-Channel MOSFETControl
Rapid Device Turnoff Protects Bus Integrity
Programmable Turn-Off Threshold
Soft Turn on Reduces Bus Transients
Industrial Temperature Range: –40°C to 85°C
8-Pin TSSOP and SOIC Packages
Applications for the TPS2419 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. Redundant
power sources must have the equivalent of a diode
OR to prevent reverse current during faults and
hotplug.

characteristics. The TPS2419 brings out an enable
pin which allows the system to force the MOSFET off
under light-load, high noise conditions.
