DEMO MANUAL DC1624A
LTC4225-1/LTC4225-2
Dual Ideal Diode and
Hot Swap Controller
Description
Demonstration circuit 1624A contains two independent rail
circuits each with Hot Swap™ and ideal diode functionality
provided by the LTC4225-1/LTC4225-2 dual ideal diode
and Hot Swap controller.
rail, four LEDs to indicate power good and fault conditions
separately for each channel, and input voltage snubbers.
There are pads for optional RC circuits for each Hot Swap
MOSFET gate in order to adjust output voltage slew rate.
DC1624A facilitates evaluation of LTC4225 performance in
different operation modes such as supply ramp-up, power
supply switchover, steady state, and overcurrent faults.
Power supply switchover mode can be realized as either
an ideal diode functionality or as a prioritizer functionality.
The standard configuration (as DC1624A populated by
default) places the ideal diode MOSFET ahead of the
Hot Swap MOSFET. The board also has pads for an alternative configuration with the Hot Swap MOSFET located
ahead of the ideal diode MOSFET.
Each DC1624A rail circuit is assembled to operate with a
12V supply and 11.5A maximum current load.
Design files for this circuit board are available at
http://www.linear.com/demo
The main components of the board are the LTC4225
controller, two MOSFETs operating as ideal diodes, two
MOSFETs operating as Hot Swap devices, two power sense
resistors, two jumpers for independently enabling each

quick start procedure
The LTC4225 functions as an ideal diode with inrush current limiting and overcurrent protection by controlling
two external back-to-back N-channel MOSFETs in a power
path. The LTC4225 has two ideal diode and two Hot Swap
controllers. Each ideal diode MOSFET is intended to operate with a defined Hot Swap MOSFET, because they are
tied by common on/off control, and ideal diode controller
sense voltage includes both MOSFETs and sense resistor
voltage drop. Therefore, LTC4225 provides independent
control for the two input supplies.
An active current limit amplifier servos the gate of the
MOSFET to 65mV across the current sense resistor. Inrush current can be further reduced, if desired, by adding
a capacitor from HGATE to GND. When the MOSFET’s
gate overdrive (HGATE to OUT voltage) exceeds 4.2V, the
PWRGD pin pulls low.
The LTC4225 gate drive amplifiers (DGATEN,) monitor
the voltage between the INN and OUTN pins and drive the
DGATEN pins. The amplifier quickly pulls up the DGATE
pin, turning on the MOSFET (Q1 or Q3), for ideal diode
control when it senses a large forward voltage drop.
When both MOSFETs (Q1 and Q2 or Q3 and Q4) are turned
on, the gate drive amplifier controls DGATE to servo the
forward voltage drop (VIN - VOUT) across the sense resistor
and the back-to-back MOSFETs to 25mV. If the load current
causes more than 25mV of voltage drop, the gate voltage
rises to enhance the MOSFET used for ideal diode control.
For large output currents the MOSFET’s gate is driven
fully on and the voltage drop is equal to the sum of the
ILOAD • RDS(ON) of the two MOSFETs in series.
Pulling the ON pin high and EN pins low initiates a 100ms
debounce timing cycle. After 100ms, a 10µA current source
from the charge pump ramps up the HGATEN pin. When
the Hot Swap MOSFET (Q2 or Q4) turns on, the inrush
current is limited to a set level set by an external sense
resistor placed between IN and SENSE pins.
In the case of an input supply short circuit when the
MOSFETs are conducting, a large reverse current starts
flowing from the load towards the input. The gate drive
amplifier detects this failure condition as soon as it appears and turns off the ideal diode MOSFET by pulling
down the DGATE pin.

DEMO MANUAL DC1624A
quick start procedure
Demonstration circuit DC1624A can be easily to set up to
evaluate the performance of the LTC4225-1/LTC4225-2.
Refer to the Figure 1 for proper measurement equipment
setup and follow the procedure below.
position to the ON position. Observe the transient. The
output voltage rise time should be in the range of 12ms
to 29ms. PWRGD1 (PWRGD2) green LED should be lit.
Turn off the rail using the ON1_SEL (ON2_SEL) jumper.
The DC1624A test includes independent tests of the
LTC4225 Hot Swap functionality, ideal diode functionality and two power rails prioritizer functionality with the
channel 1 highest priority.
Second Step
HOT SWAP FUNCTIONALITY TEST
This test is identical for each 12V rail and is performed
in the three steps by the measuring of the transient’s
parameters in the different operation modes.
The first step is a power-up without any additional load.
The second step is the current limit operation after successful power-up transient. The third step is a power-up
with a shorted output.
Initially install the jumper heads in the following positions:
ON1_SEL and ON2_SEL in position OFF;
EN1_SEL and EN2_SEL in position LOW.
First Step
Connect a 12V power supply to the board input turrets
IN1 (IN2) and GND. Do not load the output. Place current
probe on the 12V supply and voltage probes on the OUT1
(OUT2) turret.
Provide ON1 (ON2) signal at the ON1 (ON2) pin by moving the ON1_SEL (ON2_SEL) jumper header from OFF
Initially adjust an electronic resistive load to 10Ω to 12Ω
and connect it to the OUT1 (OUT2) turret and GND. Turn
on the rail and slowly increase load current up to the circuit
breaker threshold level. The current limit range should be
from 11.5A to 13.3A. Turn off the rail using the ON1_SEL
(ON2_SEL) jumper.
Third Step
Short the output to ground with a wire. Place the current
probe on this wire. Turn on the rail and record the current
shape. The maximum current should be in the (13.6A to
18.9A) range. The LTC4225-1 latches off after overcurrent
condition, but the LTC4225-2 automatically retries after
200ms to 450ms.
IDEAL DIODE FUNCTIONALITY TEST
Use an individual 12V power supply for each rail; connect
the two outputs together at a common load. Adjust each
input voltage to 12V with maximum possible accuracy.
In this test, both rails are active and small variations in
the input voltage will force one channel off and the other
channel on.

DEMO MANUAL DC1624A
quick start procedure
Place a voltmeter between IN1 and IN2 turrets to measure
the difference between two input voltages. Activate both
rails and keep a load around 1A to 3A. Adjust with the input
voltage levels and verify that when the difference between
input voltages exceeds 40mV only one rail is active.
THE PRIORITIZER FUNCTIONALITY TEST
The DC1624A is assembled with components to implement a two power rails prioritizer with channel 1 having
the higher priority.
Install R17 with 470 and R18 with 41.2k.
Place JP5 PPR_SEL (power priority select) jumper in position ON2 and JP4 ON2_SEL (ON2 select) in position OFF.
Apply independent supply voltages (12V) to both inputs.
Channel 1 will be connected to load. Reduce channel 1
input voltage until it reaches an undervoltage condition
and D5 (PWRGD2) lights. At the same time channel 2
power supply will deliver power to the load.
