Cold Crank

Cold crank testing is performed to ensure the design prevents reverse current during conditions where the input is lower than the output.

As shown in Figure 3-11, the input voltage drops to be lower than the output voltage for a period of time before eventually moving back to normal voltage levels. In these cold crank events, LM74810 provides reverse current blocking through the use of the DGATE driven MOSFETs. As shown in Figure 3-12, the green trace which is the DGATE voltage, turns off when the input voltage drops to prevent reverse current to flow back to the battery. For the testing shown in Figure 3-12, the current load is set to a 4A load.
