DEMO MANUAL DC1555C
LTC4365/LTC4365-1:
Overvoltage, Undervoltage and
Reverse Supply Protection Controller
Description
Demonstration circuit DC1555C is intended to demon-
strate the performance of the LTC4365 and LTC4365-1
Undervoltage, Overvoltage and Reverse Supply Protection
Controllers.
The
LTC
®
4365/LTC4365-1
protect circuits from input volt-
ages that may be too high, too low or negative. It operates
by controlling the gates of two back-to-back connected
MOSFETs to keep the output in a safe range. The OV and
UV protection levels are adjusted by resistive dividers at
the OV and UV pins. Asserting the
SHDN
pin disables the
MOSFETs and places the controller in a low-current shut-
down state. The
FAULT
pin is asserted when the Controller
is in shutdown mode or when the input voltage is outside
of the UV or OV level.
The LTC4365 and LTC4365-1 can withstand DC voltages
between –40V and +60V and have a valid operating range
of 2.5V to 34V.
Regarding the supply protection parameters, the LTC4365
and LTC4365-1 are identical. The only differences are
in the gate fault recovery delay time and the delay from
turn-off to low-power operation. These delays are 36ms
(typ, both) for the LTC4365, while they are 1ms and 0.7ms
respectively for the LTC4365-1.
The DC1555C includes the controller, two back-to-back
connected power MOSFETs, three jumpers and three
LEDs to indicate the input and output voltages and the
FAULT
pin signal.

operating principles
The LTC4365/LTC4365-1 monitors the input rail voltage
and disconnects downstream circuits when the input volt-
age is too low, too high or negative. The LTC4365 provides
accurate overvoltage and undervoltage comparators to
ensure that power is applied to the system only if the input
supply is within the allowable voltage window. Reverse
supply protection circuit automatically isolates the load
from negative input voltages.
During normal operation, a high voltage charge pump
enhances the gate of external N-channel power MOSFETs.
The controller consumes 10µA during shutdown and
125µA while operating.

Quick start proceDure
Demonstration circuit 1555C is easy to set up to evaluate
the performance of the LTC4365/LTC4365-1. Refer to
Figures 1a and 1b for proper measurement equipment
setup and follow the procedure below.
Note that the circuit on the DC1555C is optimized for 12V
operation. The Si4214 FET limits overvoltage and reverse
voltage to 30V and –30V, respectively. Refer to the LTC4365
data sheet for applications optimized for other voltages.
Reverse Voltage Test (Figure 1b)
1) Set JP1 to EN.
2) Set JP2 and JP3 to CONNECT LED.
3) Connect a power supply across VIN and GND in a
negative configuration (connect positive rail to GND
and negative rail to VIN).
4) Connect voltmeters at the input and output and am-
meter in series with supply.
5) Ramp VIN down to –30V (referenced to GND).
6) Verify that the output voltage is between 0V and –0.5V,
all LEDs are off, and the input current is <1.8mA. (FET
leakage or other board leakage paths can pull VOUT
slightly negative, but it will be clamped by the internal
protection diode.)
7) Ramp supply back to 0V.
Undervoltage/Overvoltage Test (Figure 1a)
8) Reverse the polarity of power supply connection across
VIN to GND (connect positive rail to VIN and negative
rail to GND).
9) Ramp supply up to 30V and verify green VIN LED, red
FAULT
LED, green VOUT LED, and VOUT according to
Table 1 within the various voltage ranges.
10) Ramp supply down from 30V down to 0V and verify
green VIN LED, red
FAULT
LED, green VOUT LED, and
VOUT according to Table 1.
