Introduction
The PI2001-EVAL1 allows the user to test the basic principle
and operational characteristics of an Active ORing function in
a redundant power architecture, while also experiencing the
benefits and value of the PI2001 solution versus conventional
Active ORing solutions. The PI2001-EVAL1 evaluation board is
configured to receive two independent power source inputs,
per a typical redundant power architecture, through two
Active ORing channels that are combined to form a
redundant power output. Each channel contains a PI2001
controller and an N-channel power MOSFET. The MOSFET
foot print can take an SO-8 or Power SO-8 MOSFET package.
Each channel is capable of up to 20 A, for high current Active
ORing, above 20 A, the two channels provided on the
evaluation board can be paralleled in a master / slave
configuration and OR’d with a second evaluation board.

The PI2001-EVAL1 evaluation board is designed with
optimized PCB layout and component placement to represent
a realistic high density final design for an embedded Active
ORing solution for ≤ 7 Vbus applications requiring up to 20 A.
This evaluation board is intended as an easy and simple way
to test the electrical and thermal performance of the PI2001
Active ORing controller.
Both dynamic and steady state testing of the PI2001 can be
completed on the PI2001-EVAL1 evaluation board, in addition
to using the key features of the product. Dynamic testing can
be completed under a variety of system level fault conditions
to check for response time to faults.
This document provides basic instructions for initial start-up
and configuration of the evaluation board. Further
information on the functionality of the PI2001 can be
found in the PI2001 product data sheet.

Cool-ORingTM PI2001 Product Description
The Cool-ORing PI2001 with an external industry standard
N-channel MOSFET provides a complete Active ORing
solution designed for use in redundant power system
architectures. The PI2001 controller with N-channel MOSFET
enables extremely low power loss with fast dynamic response
to fault conditions, critical for high availability systems. A
master / slave feature allows the paralleling of PI2001
solutions for high current Active ORing requirements. The
PI2001 can also drive multiple paralleled MOSFETs.
The PI2001 controller with a low Rds(on) N-channel MOSFET
provides very high efficiency and low power loss during
steady state operation. The PI2001 controller provides an
active low fault flag output to the system during excessive
forward current, light load, reverse current, over-voltage,
under-voltage, and over-temperature fault conditions.
A temperature sensing function indicates a fault if the
maximum junction temperature exceeds 160°C. The undervoltage and over-voltage thresholds are programmable via
an external resistor divider.
Figure 1 shows a photo of the PI2001-EVAL1 evaluation
board, with two PI2001 controllers and two N-channel
MOSFETs used to form the two Active ORing channels. The
board is built with two identical Active ORing circuits with
options and features that enable the user to fully explore the
capabilities of the PI2001 universal Active ORing controller.

3.0 Blanking timer setup:
3.1 The blanking timer provides noise filtering for
typical switching power conversion that might
cause premature reverse current detection by
masking the reverse fault condition. The shortest
blanking time is 50 ns when the BK pin is
connected to ground. Connecting an external
resistor (RBK, reference designators R7 for U1 and
R14 for U2) between the BK pin and ground will
increase the blanking time as shown in Figure 5.

If Vaux is higher than the Clamp voltage, 15.5 V
typical, the Rbias value has to be changed using the
following equations:
4.4.1 Select the value of Rbias using the following
equation:

4.0 Auxiliary Power Supply (Vaux):
4.1 The PI2001 Controller has a separate input (VC) that
provides power to the control circuitry and the gate
driver. An internal voltage regulator (VC) clamps the
VC voltage to 15.5 V typically.
4.2 Connect independent power source to Vaux inputs of
PI2001-EVAL1 Evaluation Board to supply power to
the VC input. The Vaux voltage should be 5V higher
than Vin (redundant power source output voltage) to
fully enhance the MOSFET. If the MOSFET is replaced
with different MOSFET, make sure that Vaux= Vin +
0.5 V + required voltage to be enhance the MOSFET.

Note: Minimize the resistor value for low Vaux voltage
levels to avoid a voltage drop that may reduce the VC

and R10) are installed on the PI2001-EVAL1 between
each Vaux input and VC pin of one of the PI2001
controller.

5.0 Hook Up of the Evaluation Board
5.1 OV and UV resistors values are configured for a 3.3 V
input voltage. If you are using the evaluation board in
a different input voltage level you have to adjust the
resistor values by replacing R1, R2, R8 and R9, or
remove R2, R5, R9 and R12 to disable UV and OV.
Please refer to the UV/OV section for details to set R1,
R2, R8 and R9 proper values.

that the MOSFET is in conduction mode.
5.12 D1 should be off. This verifies that there is no
fault condition.
5.13 Reduce PS1 output voltage to 2 V,
5.14 D1 should turn on, this verifies that the circuit is in
an under-voltage fault condition.
5.15 Increase PS1 output to 3.3 V, D1 should turn off, then
increase PS1 output to 4 V, D1 should turn on
indicating an over-voltage fault condition
5.16 Verify that Vin2 is at 0V. This verifies that the
PI2001 (U2) FET (Q2) is off.
5.17 D2 should be on. This is due to a reverse voltage
fault condition caused by the bus voltage being
high with respect to the input voltage (Vin2).
5.18 Enable (turn ON) PS2 output.
5.19 Verify that both PS1 and PS2 are sharing load
current evenly by looking at the supply current.
5.20 Disable (turn OFF) PS1, PS2 and PS3 outputs.

(U2) MOSFET (Q2) is in conduction mode.
5.23 D2 should be off. This verifies that there is no
fault condition.
5.24 Reduce PS2 output voltage to 2 V,
5.25 D2 should turn on, this verifies that the circuit is in
an under-voltage fault condition.
5.26 Increase PS2 output to 3.3 V, D2 should turn off, then
increase PS2 output to 4 V, D2 should turn on
indicating an over voltage fault condition.
5.27 Verify that Vin1 is at 0V. This verifies that the
PI2001 (U1) FET (Q1) is off.
5.28 D1 should be on. This is due to a reverse voltage
fault condition caused by the bus voltage being
high with respect to the input voltage (Vin1).
6.0 Slave Mode: Slave Mode can be demonstrated in two
setups; either by using one PI2001-EVAL1 evaluation board as
a single ORing function with both PI2001 effectively in
parallel or two PI2001-EVAL1 evaluation boards to
demonstrate a true redundant 40A system. The following test
steps use a single PI2001-EVAL1 in a slave mode application.
Note: In this experiment U1 is configured in master mode and
U2 is configured in slave mode.

drop below PS2. This verifies that the Q2 is off due to
the Master (U1) not being on.
5.21 Enable (turn ON) PS2 output then Enable PS3 output.
Picor Corporation • www.picorpower.com
P12001-EVAL1 User Guide Rev 1.1 Page 7 of 11
6.9 Enable (turn on) PS1 output:
6.10 Verify that the electronic load input voltage reading is
a few millivolts below 3.3 V and PS1 and PS2 are
sharing the load current evenly. This verifies that both
MOSFET's, Q1 and Q2, are in conduction mode.
7.0 Input short circuit test
7.1 To emulate a real application, the BUS supplies for this
test should have a solid output source such as DC-DC
converter that supplies high current and can be
connected very close to the evaluation board to
reduce stray parasitic inductance. Or use the
prospective supply sources of the end application
where the PI2001 will be used.
7.2 Stray parasitic inductance in the circuit can contribute
to significant voltage transient conditions, particularly
when the MOSFET is turned-off after a reverse current
fault has been detected. When a short is applied at
the output of the input power sources and the .
evaluation board input (Vin), a large reverse current is
sourced from the evaluation board output through
the ORing MOSFET. The reverse current in the MOSFET
may reach over 60 A in some conditions before the
MOSFET is turned off. Such high current conditions
will store high energy even in a small parasitic
element, and can be represented as ½ Li2. A 1 nH
parasitic inductance with 60 A reverse current will
generate 1.8 µJ. When the MOSFET is turned off, the
stored energy will be released and will produce a high
negative voltage at the MOSFET source and high
positive voltage at the MOSFET drain. This event will
create a high voltage difference across the drain and
source of the MOSFET.
7.3 Apply a short at one of the inputs (Vin1 or Vin2) when
the evaluation board is configured with both
controllers (U1 and U2) in master mode. The short can
be applied electronically using a MOSFET connected
between Vin and Gnd or simply by connecting Vin to
Gnd. Then measure the response time between when
the short is applied and the MOSFET is disconnected
(or turned off). An example for PI2001 response time
to an input short circuit is shown in Figure 6.
