The LM7311x family is a highly
integrated, circuit-protection and power-management device in a small package. The
devices provide multiple protection modes that use few external components and are a
robust defense against overloads, short-circuits, voltage surges and excessive
inrush current. With integrated back-to-back FETs, reverse current flow from output
to input is blocked at all times, making the devices designed for power MUX and
ORing applications, as well as systems that need load side energy hold up storage if
input power supply fails. The devices use a linear ORing based scheme to maintain
almost zero DC reverse current and emulate ideal diode behavior with minimum forward
voltage drop and power dissipation.
Output slew rate and inrush current
can be adjusted using a single external capacitor. Loads are protected from input
overvoltage conditions by cutting off the output if input exceeds an adjustable
overvoltage threshold.
The devices are available in a 3mm ×
3mm, for improved thermal performance and reduced system footprint.
The devices are characterized for
operation over a junction temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.
