ADI LTC2924CGN#PBF

The LTC2924 is a power supply sequencer designed for use with external N-channel MOSFETs or power supplies with shutdown pins. Four power supplies can be fully sequenced by a single LTC2924 and up to five supplies can be sequenced to a sixth master supply. The LTC2924 requires a minimum of external components, using only two feedback resistors per sequenced power supply and a single resistor to set hysteresis. An internally regulated charge pump provides gate drive voltages for external logic and sub-logic-level MOSFETs. Adding a single capacitor enables an adjustable time delay between power supplies during both Power On and Power Off sequencing. A second capacitor can be added to enable a power good timer for detecting the failure of any power supply to turn on within the selected time. Errors in power supply sequencing and the control input are detected and reported at the FAULT output. The LTC2924 features pre­ cision input comparators which can provide 1% accuracy in monitoring power supply voltages. Multiple LTC2924s may be easily cascaded to sequence a virtually unlimited number of power supplies.
