DESCRIPTION
The LTC
®
1477/LTC1478 protected high side switches
provide extremely low R
DS(ON)
switching with built-in
protection against short-circuit and thermal overload con-
ditions. A built-in charge pump generates gate drive
higher than the supply voltage to fully enhance the internal
NMOS switch. This switch has no parasitic body diode and
therefore no current flows through the switch when it is
turned off and the output is forced above the input supply
voltage. (DMOS switches have parasitic body diodes that
become forward biased under these conditions.)
Two levels of protection are provided by the
LTC1477/LTC1478. The first level of protection is short-
circuit current limit which is set at 2A. The short-circuit
current can be reduced to as low as 0.85A by disconnect-
ing portions of the power device (see Applications Infor-
mation). The second level of protection is provided by
thermal overload protection which limits the die tempera-
ture to approximately 130°C.
The LTC1477 single is available in 8-lead SO packaging.
The LTC1478 dual is available in 16-lead SO packaging.

Note 3:

Note 4:
The output is protected with fold-back current limit which reduces
the short-circuit (0V) currents below peak permissible current levels at
higher output voltages. (See Typical Performance Characteristics for
further detail on output current versus output voltage).

PIN FUNCTIONS
LTC1477
EN (Pin 4):
The enable input is a high impedance CMOS
gate with an ESD protection diode to ground and should
not be forced below ground. This input has about 100mV
of built-in hysteresis to ensure clean switching.
V
INS
, V
IN1
(Pins 3,2):
The V
INS
supply pin must always be
connected to the V
IN1
supply pin (see Block Diagram). The
V
INS
supply pin provides power for the input control logic,
the current limit and thermal shutdown circuitry; plus
provides a sense connection to the input power supply.
The gate of the NMOS switch is powered by a charge pump
from the V
INS
supply pin (see Block Diagram). The V
IN1
supply pin provides connection to the drain of 1/2 of the
output power device.
V
IN2
, V
IN3
(Pins 7,6):
The V
IN2
and V
IN3
supply pins are
typically tied to the V
INS
and V
IN1
supply pins for lowest ON
resistance; i.e., when all four V
IN
pins are connected
together the entire power device is connected (see Block
Diagram). Each auxiliary supply pin, V
IN2
and V
IN3
, is
connected to the drain of 1/4 of the power device. The V
IN2
and V
IN3
pins can be selectively disconnected to reduce
the short-circuit current limit at the expense of higher
R
DS(ON)
. (See Applications Information section for more
details.)
V
OUT
(Pins 1,8):
The output pins of the LTC1477 must
always be tied together. The output is protected against
accidental short circuits to ground by a current limit circuit
which protects the system power supply and load against
damage. A second level of protection is provided by
thermal shutdown circuitry which limits the die tempera-
ture to 130°C.

The outputs of the LTC1478

by a current limit circuit which protects the system power
supplies and loads against damage. A second level of
protection is provided by thermal shutdown circuitry
which limits the die temperature to approximately 130°C.
LTC1477/LTC1478
OPERATION
(LTC1477 or single channel of LTC1478)
Input TTL-CMOS Converter
The LTC1477 enable input is designed to accommodate a
wide range of 3V and 5V logic families. The input threshold
voltage is approximately 1.4V with 100mV of hysteresis.
The input enables the bias generator, the gate charge
pump and the protection circuitry. Therefore, when the
enable input is turned off, the entire circuit is powered
down and the supply current drops below 1µA.
Ramped Switch Control
The LTC1477 gate charge pump includes circuitry which
ramps the NMOS switch on slowly (1ms typical rise time)
but turns it off much more quickly (typically 20µs).
Bias, Oscillator and Gate Charge Pump
When the switch is enabled, a bias current generator and
high frequency oscillator are turned on. The on-chip
capacitive charge pump generates approximately 12V of
gate drive for the internal low R
DS(ON)
NMOS switch from
the power supply. No external 12V supply is required to
switch the output.
Switch Protection
Two levels of protection are designed into the power
switch in the LTC1477. The switch is protected against
accidental short circuits with a current limit circuit which
limits the output current to typically 2A when the output is
shorted to ground. The LTC1477 also has thermal shut-
down set at approximately 130°C which limits the power
dissipation to safe levels.

The LTC1477 is designed to current limit at approximately
2A during a short circuit with all the V
IN
pins connected to
the input power supply. It is possible however, to reduce
this current by selectively disconnecting two of the four
power supply pins (V

The LTC1478 dual protected switch can be thought of as
two independent LTC1477 single protected switches. The
input supply voltages may be from separate power sources.
The ground connection, however, is common to both
channels and must be connected to the same potential.
