LINER LT4356CMS-1

LT4356-1
Overvoltage Protection
Regulator and Inrush Limiter
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
n
The LT®4356-1 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 LT4356-1 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.

The spare 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 during shutdown.

(DE/MS)
AOUT (Pin 11 DE Only): Amplifier Output. 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.
EN (Pin 9/Pin 8): 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.
Exposed Pad (Pin 13 DE Only): Exposed pad may be left
open or connected to device ground (GND).
FB (Pin 2/Pin 1): 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 (Pin 8/Pin 7): 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 (Pin 4/Pin 3): 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 (Pin 10/Pin 9): Device Ground.
IN+ (Pin 12 DE 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.
OUT (Pin 3/Pin 2): 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.
SHDN (Pin 7/Pin 6): Shutdown Control Input. The LT4356-1
can be shutdown to a low current mode by pulling the
SHDN pin below the shutdown threshold of 0.6V. Pull
this pin above 1.7V or disconnect it and allow the inter43561fd
6
LT4356-1
nal 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.
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. The pull up current stops and
a 2μA current source starts to pull the TMR pin down
as soon as the fault condition disappears. When VTMR
reaches the retry threshold of 0.5V, the GATE pin pulls
high turning back on the pass transistor.
SNS (Pin 5/Pin 4): 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.

LT4356-1
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 LT4356-1 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 loads 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 resistor
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 LT4356-1 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.
A spare amplifier (SA) is provided with the negative input
connected to an internal 1.25V reference. The output pull
down 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.

LT4356-1
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LT4356-1 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 LTC4356-1 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 cool down 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 LT4356-1 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
cool down period has transpired, the GATE pin is allowed
to pull back up and turn on the pass transistor.
Fault Timer
The LT4356-1 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 cool down 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.
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.

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
The gate drive for the MOSFET is guaranteed to be more
than 10V and less than 18V 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 LT4356-1 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.
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. 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).

For the transient conditions of VPK = 80V, VIN = 12V,
VREG = 16V, tr = 10μs and τ = 1ms, and a load current
of 3A, P2t is 16.7W2s—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:
P 2 t = (VIN • Δ VSNS / RSNS )2 • t TMR (W 2s)
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 ac43561fd

count for circuit tolerances this figure should be doubled
to 13.2W2s.
Limiting Inrush Current and GATE Pin Compensation
The LT4356-1 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 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).

INPUT
The LTC4356-1 does not need extra compensation components at the GATE pin for stability during an overvoltage or
overcurrent event. However, with fast, high voltage transient
steps at the input, a gate capacitor, C1, to ground is needed
to prevent turn-on 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.
Auxiliary Amplifier
An uncommitted amplifier is included in the LT4356-1 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.

Reverse Input Protection
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 LT4356-1 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.
Shutdown

The LT4356-1 can be shut down to a low current mode

Supply Transient Protection
The LT4356-1 is 100% tested and guaranteed to be safe
from damage with supply voltages up to 80V. 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
faster than 10μs. A total bulk capacitance in the range of
22μF is also required close to the VCC pin of the DC/DC
converter, if not already provided by the 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.
