SPOR30D28 TECHNICAL DATA DATA SHEET 5054, REV- ACTIVE ORING CONTROLLER MODULE DESCRIPTION In fault tolerant, redundant power distribution systems, oring power diodes are commonly used, when paralleling multiple power supplies, to prevent the occurrence of reverse current if an individual power supply voltage falls significantly below the others. Despite of low-cost and easy implementation, the use of oring power diodes suffers from high power dissipation especially in high current applications. The active oring controller module is designed to replace oring power diodes in high-reliable 28V DC aircraft power systems. Each module is designed to parallel two power supplies with current rated up to 30A on each line. The module uses low onresistance oring MOSFETs driven by an oring controller. Compared to oring power diodes, this module dissipates very low power loss and can be operated without any heat sink. In addition, the module can detect faults of dead short in the sourcing supply, a blown fuse, over load current, or opencircuit of oring MOSFETs. This module also provides an interface for customers to diagnose the shortcircuit fault of oring MOSFETs.

Otherwise short LINE1, 2 and FUSE1, 2. Output pin of the module. This pin is used to connect to the load. FET check input pins. Together with PWFLT1, 2 output pins, the FETCHK1, 2 pins can be used to determine the short-circuit fault of oring MOSFETs. These two pins indicate which channel has higher line voltage. The pin of higher line voltage gives open drain output, otherwise it is shorted to GND. Ground of the module. This pin should be connected to 28V return. Output pin of fault detection. (see Fault Table for details) Output pin of blown fuse detection.
