DATASHEET
ISL6146
Low Voltage OR-ing FET Controller
The
ISL6146
represents a family of OR-ing MOSFET controllers
capable of OR-ing voltages from 1V to 18V. Together with suitably
sized N-channel power MOSFETs, the ISL6146 increases power
distribution efficiency when replacing a power OR-ing diode in high
current applications. It provides gate drive voltage for the
MOSFET(s) with a fully integrated charge pump.
The ISL6146 allows users to adjust with external resistor(s) the
V
OUT
- V
IN
trip point, which adjusts the control sensitivity to system
power supply noise. An open drain FAULT pin will indicate if a
conditional or FET fault has occurred.
The ISL6146A and ISL6146B are optimized for very low voltage
operation, down to 1V with an additional independent bias of 3V
or greater.
The ISL6146C provides a voltage compliant mode of operation
down to 3V with programmable undervoltage lock out and
overvoltage protection threshold levels.
The ISL6146D and ISL6146E are like the ISL6146A and ISL6146B
respectively, but do not have conduction state reporting via the
fault output

DESCRIPTION
Gate Drive output to the external N-Channel MOSFET generated by the IC internal charge pump. Gate turn-on time is typically
<1ms. Allows active control of external N-Channel FET gate to perform OR-ing function.
The GATE drive is between V
IN
+ 7V at V
IN
= 3.3V and V
IN
+12V at V
IN
= 18V.
Connected to the sourcing supply side (OR-ing MOSFET source), this pin serves as the sense pin to determine the OR’d supply
voltage. The OR-ing MOSFET will be turned off when V
IN
becomes lower than V
OUT
by a value more than the externally set
threshold or the defaulted internal threshold. Range: 0V to 24V
Primary bias pin. Connected to an independent voltage supply greater than or equal to 3V and greater than V

Chip ground reference.
Open-drain pull-down fault indicating output with internal on-chip filtering (T
FLT
). The ISL6146 fault detection circuitry pulls
down this pin to GND as it detects a fault or a disabled input (EN = ‘0’ or EN = ‘1’).
Different types of faults and their detection mechanisms are discussed in more detail on
page 17.
These faults include:
a. GATE is OFF (GATE < V
IN
+0.2V) when enabled [this condition is not reported on the ISL6146D and ISL6146E]
b. V

Voltage Threshold (Vth) of the High Speed Comparator. This pin is either directly
connected to VOUT or can be connected through a 5kΩ to 100kΩ resistor to GND. Allows for adjusting the voltage difference
threshold to prevent unintended turn-off of the pass FET due to normal system voltage fluctuations.
Range: 0.4 to V
OUT
The second sensing node for external FET control and connected to the Load side (OR-ing MOSFET Drain). This is the
common connection point for multiple paralleled supplies. V
OUT
is compared to V
IN
to determine when the OR-ing FET has
to be turned off. Range: 0V to 24V
