LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 Surge Stopper FEATURES DESCRIPTION n The LT®4356 surge stopper protects loads from high voltage transients. It regulates the output during an overvoltage event, such as load dump in automobiles, by controlling the gate of an external N-channel MOSFET. The output is limited to a safe value thereby allowing the loads to continue functioning. The LT4356MP also monitors the voltage drop between the VCC and SNS pins to protect against overcurrent faults. An internal amplifier limits the current sense voltage to 50mV. In either fault condition, a timer is started inversely proportional to MOSFET stress. If the timer expires, the FLT pin pulls low to warn of an impending power-down. If the condition persists, the MOSFET is turned off. After a cooldown period, the GATE pin pulls up turning on the MOSFET again. n n n n n n n n n n n n Stops High Voltage Surges Adjustable Output Clamp Voltage Overcurrent Protection Wide Operation Range: 4V to 80V Reverse Input Protection to –60V Low 7μA Shutdown Current, LT4356-1 Adjustable Fault Timer Controls N-channel MOSFET Shutdown Pin Withstands –60V to 100V Fault Output Indication Guaranteed Operation –55°C to 125°C Auxiliary Amplifier for Level Detection Comparator or Linear Regulator Controller Available in 10-Pin MSOP or 16-Pin SO Packages APPLICATIONS n n n n Automotive/Avionic Surge Protection Hot Swap/Live Insertion High Side Switch for Battery Powered Systems Intrinsic Safety Applications L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.

The auxiliary amplifier may be used as a voltage detection comparator or as a linear regulator controller driving an external PNP pass transistor. Back-to-back FETs can be used in lieu of a Schottky diode for reverse input protection, reducing voltage drop and power loss. A shutdown pin reduces the quiescent current to less than 7μA for the LT4356-1 during shutdown. The LT4356-2 differs from the LT4356-1 during shutdown by reducing the quiescent current to 60μA and keeping alive the auxiliary amplifier for uses such as an undervoltage lockout or always-on regulator.

Open collector output of the auxiliary amplifier. It is capable of sinking up to 2mA from 80V. The negative input of the amplifier is internally connected to a 1.25V reference. OUT: Output Voltage Sense Input. This pin senses the voltage at the source of the N-channel MOSFET and sets the fault timer current. When the OUT pin voltage reaches 0.7V away from VCC, the EN pin goes high impedance. EN: Open-Collector Enable Output. The EN pin goes high impedance when the voltage at the OUT pin is above (VCC – 0.7V), indicating the external MOSFET is fully on. The state of the pin is latched until the OUT pin voltage resets at below 0.5V and goes back up above 2V. The internal NPN is capable of sinking up to 3mA of current from 80V to drive an LED or opto-coupler. SHDN: Shutdown Control Input. The LT4356 can be shut down to a low current mode by pulling the SHDN pin below 0.4V. Pull this pin above 2.1V or disconnect it and allow the internal current source to turn the part back on. The leakage current to ground at the pin should be limited to no more than 1μA if no pull-up device is used to turn the part on. The SHDN pin can be pulled up to 100V or below GND by 60V without damage. In shutdown, the auxiliary amplifier turns off in the LT4356-1 but continues operating in the LT4356-2. FB: Voltage Regulator Feedback Input. Connect this pin to the center tap of the output resistive divider connected between the OUT pin and ground. During an overvoltage condition, the GATE pin is servoed to maintain a 1.25V threshold at the FB pin. This pin is clamped internally to 7V. Tie to GND to disable the OV clamp. FLT: Open-Collector Fault Output. This pin pulls low after the voltage at the TMR pin has reached the fault threshold of 1.25V. It indicates the pass transistor is about to turn off because either the supply voltage has stayed at an elevated level for an extended period of time (voltage fault) or the device is in an overcurrent condition (current fault). The internal NPN is capable of sinking up to 3mA of current from 80V to drive an LED or opto-coupler. GATE: N-channel MOSFET Gate Drive Output. The GATE pin is pulled up by an internal charge pump current source and clamped to 14V above the OUT pin. Both voltage and current amplifiers control the GATE pin to regulate the output voltage and limit the current through the MOSFET. GND: Device Ground. IN+ (SO Package Only): Positive Input of the Auxiliary Amplifier. This amplifier can be used as a level detection comparator with external hysteresis or linear regulator controlling an external PNP transistor. This pin is clamped internally to 7V. Connect to ground if unused. SNS: Current Sense Input. Connect this pin to the output of the current sense resistor. The current limit circuit controls the GATE pin to limit the sense voltage between VCC and SNS pins to 50mV. At the same time the sense amplifier also starts a current source to charge up the TMR pin. This pin can be pulled below GND by up to 60V, though the voltage difference with the VCC pin must be limited to less than 30V. Connect to VCC if unused. TMR: Fault Timer Input. Connect a capacitor between this pin and ground to set the times for early warning, fault and cooldown periods. The current charging up this pin during fault conditions depends on the voltage difference between the VCC and OUT pins. When VTMR reaches 1.25V, the FLT pin pulls low to indicate the detection of a fault condition. If the condition persists, the pass transistor turns off when VTMR reaches the threshold of 1.35V. As soon as the fault condition disappears, the pull-up current stops and a 2μA current starts to pull the TMR pin down. When VTMR reaches the retry threshold of 0.5V, the GATE pin pulls high turning back on the pass transistor. VCC: Positive Supply Voltage Input. The positive supply input ranges from 4V to 80V for normal operation. It can also be pulled below ground potential by up to 60V during a reverse battery condition, without damaging the part. The supply current is reduced to 7μA with all the functional blocks off. 4356mp12fb 7 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 BLOCK DIAGRAM VCC GATE + – 14V CHARGE PUMP + OUT FB + 50mV SNS – VA IA 1.25V – SHDN FLT AOUT OC 1.25V AUXILIARY AMPLIFIER SHDN RESTART OUT OV EN CONTROL LOGIC GATEOFF FLT – + IN+ 1.35V – VCC + 0.5V + ITMR – + 2μA 1.25V TMR – GND 4356mp12 BD 4356mp12fb 8 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 OPERATION Some power systems must cope with high voltage surges of short duration such as those in automobiles. Load circuitry must be protected from these transients, yet high availability systems must continue operating during these events. The potential at the TMR pin starts decreasing as soon as the overvoltage condition disappears. When the voltage at the TMR pin reaches 0.5V the GATE pin begins rising, turning on the MOSFET. The FLT pin will then go to a high impedance state. The LT4356 is an overvoltage protection regulator that drives an external N-channel MOSFET as the pass transistor. It operates from a wide supply voltage range of 4V to 80V. It can also be pulled below ground potential by up to 60V without damage. The low power supply requirement of 4V allows it to operate even during cold cranking conditions in automotive applications. The internal charge pump turns on the N-channel MOSFET to supply current to the loads with very little power loss. Two MOSFETs can be connected back to back to replace an inline Schottky diode for reverse input protection. This improves the efficiency and increases the available supply voltage level to the load circuitry during cold crank. The fault timer allows the load to continue functioning during short transient events while protecting the MOSFET from being damaged by a long period of supply overvoltage, such as a load dump in automobiles. The timer period varies with the voltage across the MOSFET. A higher voltage corresponds to a shorter fault timer period, ensuring the MOSFET operates within its safe operating area (SOA). Normally, the pass transistor is fully on, powering the loads with very little voltage drop. When the supply voltage surges too high, the voltage amplifier (VA) controls the gate of the MOSFET and regulates the voltage at the source pin to a level that is set by the external resistive divider from the OUT pin to ground and the internal 1.25V reference. A current source starts charging up the capacitor connected at the TMR pin to ground. If the voltage at the TMR pin, VTMR, reaches 1.25V, the FLT pin pulls low to indicate impending turn-off due to the overvoltage condition. The pass transistor stays on until the TMR pin reaches 1.35V, at which point the GATE pin pulls low turning off the MOSFET. The LT4356 senses an overcurrent condition by monitoring the voltage across an optional sense resistor placed between the VCC and SNS pins. An active current limit circuit (IA) controls the GATE pin to limit the sense voltage to 50mV. A current is also generated to start charging up the TMR pin. This current is about 5 times the current generated during an overvoltage event. The FLT pin pulls low when the voltage at the TMR pin reaches 1.25V and the MOSFET is turned off when it reaches 1.35V. An auxiliary amplifier is provided with the negative input connected to an internal 1.25V reference. The output pulldown device is capable of sinking up to 2mA of current allowing it to drive an LED or opto coupler. This amplifier can be configured as a linear regulator controller driving an external PNP transistor or a comparator function to monitor voltages. A shutdown pin turns off the pass transistor and reduces the supply current to less than 7μA for the LT4356-1. The supply current drops down to 60μA while keeping the internal reference and the auxiliary amplifier active for the LT4356-2 version during shutdown. 4356mp12fb 9 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION The LT4356 can limit the voltage and current to the load circuitry during supply transients or overcurrent events. The total fault timer period should be set to ride through short overvoltage transients while not causing damage to the pass transistor. The selection of this N-channel MOSFET pass transistor is critical for this application. It must stay on and provide a low impedance path from the input supply to the load during normal operation and then dissipate power during overvoltage or overcurrent conditions. The following sections describe the overcurrent and the overvoltage faults, and the selection of the timer capacitor value based on the required warning time. The selection of the N-channel MOSFET pass transistor is discussed next. Auxiliary amplifier, reverse input, and the shutdown functions are covered after the MOSFET selection. External component selection is discussed in detail in the Design Example section. Overvoltage Fault The LT4356 limits the voltage at the OUT pin during an overvoltage situation. An internal voltage amplifier regulates the GATE pin voltage to maintain a 1.25V threshold at the FB pin. During this period of time, the power MOSFET is still on and continues to supply current to the load. This allows uninterrupted operation during short overvoltage transient events. When the voltage regulation loop is engaged for longer than the time-out period, set by the timer capacitor connected from the TMR pin to ground, an overvoltage fault is detected. The GATE pin is pulled down to the OUT pin by a 150mA current. After the fault condition has disappeared and a cooldown period has transpired, the GATE pin starts to pull high again. This prevents the power MOSFET from being damaged during a long period of overvoltage, such as during load dump in automobiles. Overcurrent Fault The LT4356 features an adjustable current limit that protects against short circuits or excessive load current. During an overcurrent event, the GATE pin is regulated to limit the current sense voltage across the VCC and SNS pins to 50mV. An overcurrent fault occurs when the current limit circuitry has been engaged for longer than the time-out delay set by the timer capacitor. The GATE pin is then immediately pulled low by a 10mA current to GND turning off the MOSFET. After the fault condition has disappeared and a cooldown period has transpired, the GATE pin is allowed to pull back up and turn on the pass transistor. Fault Timer The LT4356 includes an adjustable fault timer pin. Connecting a capacitor from the TMR pin to ground sets the delay timer period before the MOSFET is turned off. The same capacitor also sets the cooldown period before the MOSFET is allowed to turn back on after the fault condition has disappeared. Once a fault condition, either overvoltage or overcurrent, is detected, a current source charges up the TMR pin. The current level varies depending on the voltage drop across the drain and source terminals of the power MOSFET(VDS), which is typically from the VCC pin to the OUT pin. This scheme takes better advantage of the available Safe Operating Area (SOA) of the MOSFET than would a fixed timer current. The timer function operates down to VCC = 5V across the whole temperature range. 4356mp12fb 10 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Fault Timer Current The timer current starts at around 2μA with 0.5V or less of VDS, increasing linearly to 50μA with 75V of VDS during an overvoltage fault (Figure 1). During an overcurrent fault, it starts at 4μA with 0.5V or less of VDS but increases to 260μA with 80V across the MOSFET (Figure 2). This arrangement allows the pass transistor to turn off faster during an overcurrent event, since more power is dissipated during this condition. Refer to the Typical Performance Characteristics section for the timer current at different VDS in both overvoltage and overcurrent events. When the voltage at the TMR pin, VTMR, reaches the 1.25V threshold, the FLT pin pulls low to indicate the detection of a fault condition and provide warning to the load of the impending power loss. In the case of an overvoltage fault, the timer current then switches to a fixed 5μA. The interval between FLT asserting low and the MOSFET turning off is given by: t WARNING = CTMR • 100mV 5μA VTMR(V) ITMR = 5μA ITMR = 5μA 1.35 1.25 VDS = 75V (ITMR = 50μA) VDS = 10V (ITMR = 8μA) 0.50 TIME tFLT = 15ms/μF tWARNING = 20ms/μF tFLT = 93.75ms/μF tWARNING = 20ms/μF TOTAL FAULT TIMER = tFLT + tWARNING 4356mp12 F01 Figure 1.

Overcurrent Fault Timer Current 4356mp12fb 11 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION This fixed early warning period allows the systems to perform necessary backup or house-keeping functions before the power supply is cut off. After VTMR crosses the 1.35V threshold, the pass transistor turns off immediately. Note that during an overcurrent event, the timer current is not reduced to 5μA after VTMR has reached 1.25V threshold, since it would lengthen the overall fault timer period and cause more stress on the power MOSFET. As soon as the fault condition has disappeared, a 2μA current starts to discharge the timer capacitor to ground. When VTMR reaches the 0.5V threshold, the internal charge pump starts to pull the GATE pin high, turning on the MOSFET. The TMR pin is then actively regulated to 0.5V until the next fault condition appears. The total cooldown timer period is given by: tCOOL C • 0.85V = TMR 2μA MOSFET Selection The LT4356 drives an N-channel MOSFET to conduct the load current. The important features of the MOSFET are on-resistance RDS(ON), the maximum drain-source voltage V(BR)DSS, the threshold voltage, and the SOA. The maximum allowable drain-source voltage must be higher than the supply voltage. If the output is shorted to ground or during an overvoltage event, the full supply voltage will appear across the MOSFET. The gate drive for the MOSFET is guaranteed to be more than 10V and less than 16V for those applications with VCC higher than 8V. This allows the use of standard threshold voltage N-channel MOSFETs. For systems with VCC less than 8V, a logic level MOSFET is required since the gate drive can be as low as 4.5V. The SOA of the MOSFET must encompass all fault conditions. In normal operation the pass transistor is fully on, dissipating very little power. But during either overvoltage or overcurrent faults, the GATE pin is servoed to regulate either the output voltage or the current through the MOSFET. Large current and high voltage drop across the MOSFET can coexist in these cases. The SOA curves of the MOSFET must be considered carefully along with the selection of the fault timer capacitor. Transient Stress in the MOSFET During an overvoltage event, the LT4356 drives a series pass MOSFET to regulate the output voltage at an acceptable level. The load circuitry may continue operating throughout this interval, but only at the expense of dissipation in the MOSFET pass device. MOSFET dissipation or stress is a function of the input voltage waveform, regulation voltage and load current. The MOSFET must be sized to survive this stress. Most transient event specifications use the model shown in Figure 3. The idealized waveform comprises a linear ramp of rise time tr, reaching a peak voltage of VPK and exponentially decaying back to VIN with a time constant of t. A common automotive transient specification has constants of tr = 10μs, VPK = 80V and τ = 1ms. A surge condition known as “load dump” has constants of tr = 5ms, VPK = 60V and τ = 200ms. VPK T VIN tr 4356mp12 F03 Figure 3. Prototypical Transient Waveform 4356mp12fb 12 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION MOSFET stress is the result of power dissipated within the device. For long duration surges of 100ms or more, stress is increasingly dominated by heat transfer; this is a matter of device packaging and mounting, and heatsink thermal mass. This is analyzed by simulation, using the MOSFET thermal model. For short duration transients of less than 100ms, MOSFET survival is increasingly a matter of safe operating area (SOA), an intrinsic property of the MOSFET. SOA quantifies the time required at any given condition of VDS and ID to raise the junction temperature of the MOSFET to its rated maximum. MOSFET SOA is expressed in units of watt-squared-seconds (P2t). This figure is essentially constant for intervals of less than 100ms for any given device type, and rises to infinity under DC operating conditions. Destruction mechanisms other than bulk die temperature distort the lines of an accurately drawn SOA graph so that P2t is not the same for all combinations of ID and VDS. In particular P2t tends to degrade as VDS approaches the maximum rating, rendering some devices useless for absorbing energy above a certain voltage. Calculating Transient Stress To select a MOSFET suitable for any given application, the SOA stress must be calculated for each input transient which shall not interrupt operation. It is then a simple matter to chose a device which has adequate SOA to survive the maximum calculated stress. P2t for a prototypical transient waveform is calculated as follows (Figure 4). Let a = VREG – VIN b = VPK – VIN (VIN = Nominal Input Voltage) Then 3 ⎡ ⎞⎤⎥ 1 ⎛ 2 b 2 2 2 2 ⎢ 1 (b – a ) P t = ILOAD tr + τ ⎜2a ln + 3a +b − 4ab⎟ ⎠⎥⎦ ⎢⎣ 3 b 2 ⎝ a VPK T VREG VIN tr 4356mp12 F04 Figure 4. Safe Operating Area Required to Survive Prototypical Transient Waveform Typically VREG ≈ VIN and τ >> tr simplifying the above to P2 t = 1 2 ILOAD 2 ( VPK – VREG ) τ 2 (W 2s) For the transient conditions of VPK = 80V, VIN = 12V, VREG = 16V, tr = 10μs and τ = 1ms, and a load current of 3A, P2t is 18.4W2s—easily handled by a MOSFET in a D-pak package. The P2t of other transient waveshapes is evaluated by integrating the square of MOSFET power versus time. Calculating Short-Circuit Stress SOA stress must also be calculated for short-circuit conditions. Short-circuit P2t is given by: P2t = (VIN • ΔVSNS/RSNS)2 • tTMR (W2s) where, ΔVSNS is the SENSE pin threshold, and tTMR is the overcurrent timer interval. For VIN = 14.7V, VSNS = 50mV, RSNS = 12mΩ and CTMR = 100nF, P2t is 6.6W2s—less than the transient SOA calculated in the previous example. Nevertheless, to account for circuit tolerances this figure should be doubled to 13.2W2s. Limiting Inrush Current and GATE Pin Compensation The LT4356 limits the inrush current to any load capacitance by controlling the GATE pin voltage slew rate. An external capacitor can be connected from GATE to ground to slow down the inrush current further at the expense of slower turn-off time. The gate capacitor is set at: C1 = IGATE(UP) IINRUSH • CL 4356mp12fb 13 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION The LT4356 does not need extra compensation components at the GATE pin for stability during an overvoltage or overcurrent event. With transient input voltage step faster than 5V/μs, a gate capacitor, C1, to ground is needed to prevent self enhancement of the N-channel MOSFET. The extra gate capacitance slows down the turn-off time during fault conditions and may allow excessive current during an output short event. An extra resistor, R1, in series with the gate capacitor can improve the turn-off time. A diode, D1, should be placed across R1 with the cathode connected to C1 as shown in Figure 5. The amplifier can also be configured as a low dropout linear regulator controller. With an external PNP transistor, such as 2N2905A, it can supply up to 100mA of current with only a few hundred mV of dropout voltage. Current limit can be easily included by adding two diodes and one resistor (Figure 6).

Auxiliary LDO Output with Optional Current Limit Reverse Input Protection 4356mp F05 Figure 5 Auxiliary Amplifier An uncommitted amplifier is included in the LT4356 to provide flexibility in the system design. With the negative input connected internally to the 1.25V reference, the amplifier can be connected as a level detect comparator with external hysteresis. The open collector output pin, AOUT, is capable of driving an opto or LED. It can also interface with the system via a pull-up resistor to a supply voltage up to 80V. Another use is to implement undervoltage lockout, as shown in the typical application “Overvoltage Regulator with Undervoltage Lockout.” In shutdown, the auxiliary amplifier turns off in the LT4356-1 but continues operating in the LT4356-2. A blocking diode is commonly employed when reverse input potential is possible, such as in automotive applications. This diode causes extra power loss, generates heat, and reduces the available supply voltage range. During cold crank, the extra voltage drop across the diode is particularly undesirable. The LT4356 is designed to withstand reverse voltage without damage to itself or the load. The VCC, SNS, and SHDN pins can withstand up to 60V of DC voltage below the GND potential. Back-to-back MOSFETs must be used to eliminate the current path through their body diodes (Figure 7). Figure 8 shows the approach with a P-channel MOSFET in place of Q2. 4356mp12fb 14 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION RSNS 10mΩ VIN 12V Q2 IRLR2908 D2* SMAJ58CA R4 R5 10Ω 1M Q3 2N3904 VOUT 12V, 3A CLAMPED AT 16V R3 10Ω R1 59k D1 1N4148 8 Shutdown Q1 IRLR2908 R7 10k 7 SNS 4 OUT 5 GATE VCC FB 2 R2 4.99k LT4356S 9 14 16 SHDN FLT AOUT IN+ GND EN TMR 12 1 *DIODES INC. 10 RSNS 10mΩ Q2 Si4435 Supply Transient Protection 4356mp12 F07 CTMR 0.1μF Q1 IRLR2908 VOUT 12V, 3A CLAMPED AT 16V D1 1N5245 15V D2* SMAJ58CA R3 10Ω R6 10k 7 SNS 8 5 GATE The LT4356 is guaranteed to be safe from damage with supply voltages up to 100V. Nevertheless, voltage transients above 100V may cause permanent damage. During a short-circuit condition, the large change in current flowing through power supply traces and associated wiring can cause inductive voltage transients which could exceed 100V. To minimize the voltage transients, the power trace parasitic inductance should be minimized by using wide traces. A small surge suppressor, D2, in Figure 9, at the input will clamp the voltage spikes. R1 59k 4 OUT FB VCC The SHDN pin can be pulled up to VCC or below GND by up to 60V without damaging the pin. Leaving the pin open allows an internal current source to pull it up and turn on the part while clamping the pin to 2.5V. The leakage current at the pin should be limited to no more than 1μA if no pull-up device is used to help turn it on. 11 Figure 7.

Overvoltage Regulator with Low-Battery Detection 4356mp12fb 15 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION A total bulk capacitance of at least 22μF low ESR electrolytic is required close to the source pin of MOSFET Q1. In addition, the bulk capacitance should be at least 10 times larger than the total ceramic bypassing capacitor on the input of the DC/DC converter. Layout Considerations To achieve accurate current sensing, Kelvin connection to the current sense resistor (RSNS in Figure 9) is recommended. The minimum trace width for 1oz copper foil is 0.02" per amp to ensure the trace stays at a reasonable temperature. 0.03" per amp or wider is recommended. Note that 1oz copper exhibits a sheet resistance of about 530μΩ/square. Small resistances can cause large errors in high current applications. Noise immunity will be improved significantly by locating resistive dividers close to the pins with short VCC and GND traces. RSNS = As a design example, take an application with the following specifications: VCC = 8V to 14V DC with transient up to 80V, VOUT ≤ 16V, current limit (ILIM) at 5A, low battery detection at 6V, and 1ms of overvoltage early warning (Figure 9). First, calculate the resistive divider value to limit VOUT to 16V during an overvoltage event: 1.25V • (R1 + R2) =16V R2 Set the current through R1 and R2 during the overvoltage condition to 250μA. 1.25V R2 = = 5k 250μA 50mV 50mV = = 10mΩ ILIM 5A CTMR is then chosen for 1ms of early warning time: CTMR = 1ms • 5μA = 50nF 100mV The closest standard value for CTMR is 47nF. Finally, calculate R4 and R5 for the 6V low battery threshold detection: 6V = 1.25V • (R4 + R5) R5 Choose 100k for R5. R4 = Design Example VREG = Next calculate the sense resistor, RSNS, value: (6V – 1.25V ) • R5 1.25V = 380k Select 383k for R4. The pass transistor, Q1, should be chosen to withstand the output short condition with VCC = 14V. The total overcurrent fault time is: tOC = 47nF • 0.85V = 0.878ms 45.5μA The power dissipation on Q1 equals to: P= 14V • 50mV = 70W 10mΩ These conditions are well within the Safe Operating Area of IRLR2908. Choose 4.99k for R2. R1 = (16V – 1.25V ) • R2 1.25V = 58.88k The closest standard value for R1 is 59k. 4356mp12fb 16 LT4356MP-1/LT4356MP-2 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Wide Input Range 5V to 28V Hot Swap with Undervoltage Lockout RSNS 20mΩ Q1 SUD50N03-10 VIN VOUT 100μF R3 10Ω R6 118k C1 47nF 8 VCC 9 14 16 7 SNS 5 GATE 4 OUT SHDN FB 2 AOUT IN+ LT4356S-1 R7 49.9k FLT GND 12 TMR 1 EN 10 11 4356mp12 TA02 CTMR 1μF 24V Overvoltage Regulator Withstands 150V at VIN VIN 24V Q1 IRF640 R9 1k 1W VOUT CLAMPED AT 32V R3 10Ω 5 GATE 7 SNS 8 VCC FB D2* SMAT70A 2 R2 4.99k 9 10 11 LT4356S SHDN FLT EN GND 12 *DIODES INC.
