The LTC®1473L provides reliable and efficient switching between two DC power sources. This device drives two external sets of back-to-back N-channel MOSFET switches to route power to the input of a low voltage system.
An internal boost regulator provides the voltage to fully enhance the logic-level N-channel MOSFET switches while an internal undervoltage lock-out circuit keeps the system alive down to 2.8V. The LTC1473L senses current to limit inrush between the batteries and the system supply capacitor during switchover transitions or during fault conditions.
A user-programmable timer of LTC1473L monitors the time the MOSFET switches are in current limit and latches them off when the programmed time is exceeded. A unique "2-diode" logic mode ensures system start-up regardless of which input receives power first.
