Product details
Overview
LTC4353IDE#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual low-voltage ideal diode controller that replaces Schottky diodes in ORing and holdup applications using external N-channel MOSFETs. It operates from 2.9V to 18V input supplies, regulates forward voltage drop to 12mV typical at 12V, achieves 1µs gate turn-on/turn-off, and delivers up to 10A per channel in redundant power systems for telecom infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the LTC4353IDE#PBF datasheet, LTC4353IDE#PBF pinout, LTC4353IDE#PBF application, or LTC4353IDE#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified functional context, validated package mapping to the 16-pin DFN (4mm × 3mm), confirmed thermal performance (θJA = 43°C/W), real-world MOSFET drive capability with Si4126DY, and precise enable/status logic behavior under supply failure conditions.
Technical Context
The LTC4353IDE#PBF integrates two independent servo amplifiers (SA1/SA2) that regulate GATE–VIN to maintain a fixed forward voltage drop (VFR = 12mV typ at 12V) across external N-MOSFETs, enabling smooth current transfer during supply switchover. Each channel features fast 1µs propagation delay for both turn-on and turn-off, driven by internal 3MHz charge pumps feeding CPO pins.
It includes dedicated EN1/EN2 inputs with 600mV threshold and 8mV hysteresis, ONST1/ONST2 status outputs pulled low when GATE–VIN exceeds 0.7V, and an internal LDO generating 5V at VCC from the higher VIN input. The device supports operation down to 0V VIN when externally powered via VCC (2.9V–6V), with absolute maximum ratings of −2V to 24V on VIN/OUT pins.

Equivalent & Alternatives

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage supported by the LTC4353IDE#PBF?
The LTC4353IDE#PBF supports input voltages down to 0V on VIN1/VIN2 when an external 2.9V–6V supply is applied to the VCC pin. Without external VCC, the device requires at least 2.9V on either VIN input to power its internal 5V LDO regulator. This dual-mode operation enables use in ultra-low-voltage backup scenarios such as 1.2V CPU rail holdup, as demonstrated in Typical Application TA06.
How does the LTC4353IDE#PBF prevent reverse current during supply failure?
The LTC4353IDE#PBF detects reverse current flow by monitoring the forward voltage polarity (VFWD = VIN − OUT). When VFWD drops below −0.3V, its servo amplifier triggers 1µs gate turn-off, pulling the MOSFET gate to VIN potential via 1.4A internal pull-down. This action limits reverse current transients to <100ns duration, protecting upstream supplies and downstream loads - a critical feature verified in Figure TA01b waveform analysis.
Which MOSFETs are validated for use with the LTC4353IDE#PBF?
The Si4126DY SO-8 N-channel MOSFET is explicitly validated in the LTC4353IDE#PBF datasheet (page 10, Design Example) for 10A operation. Its 2.8mΩ RDS(ON), 30V BVDSS, and 20V VGS(MAX) meet all LTC4353IDE#PBF requirements: gate clamp compatibility (≤14V), safe voltage margin, and minimal conduction loss (0.28W at 10A). Other compatible parts include Vishay SI7157DP and Infineon BSC014N04LS.
Can the LTC4353IDE#PBF operate with mismatched input voltages like 5.2V and 5.0V?
Yes - the LTC4353IDE#PBF is specifically characterized for mismatched inputs, as shown in Typical Application TA01b (VIN1 = 5.2V, VIN2 = 5.0V, IL = 8A). Its servo amplifiers independently regulate each channel's forward drop to 12mV, ensuring smooth current transfer without oscillation or shoot-through. The 1µs response time prevents output droop exceeding 50mV during switchover between closely spaced rails.
What is the purpose of the CPO pins on the LTC4353IDE#PBF?
The CPO1 and CPO2 pins connect to external capacitors (e.g., 56nF) that store charge from internal 3MHz charge pumps. During fast turn-on events, this stored energy rapidly pulls up the GATE pins to fully enhance the MOSFET within 1µs - a capability absent in simpler controllers like LTC4352. Leaving CPO open disables fast turn-on, reverting to standard 5µs response.
