Unlike diode-OR products, little current is drawn from the inactive supply even if its voltage is greater than the active supply. Internal 2Ω, current limited PMOS switches provide power path selection from a primary input (V1) or a backup input (V2) to the output. Two adjustable voltage monitors set via external resistive dividers provide flexibility in setting V1 to V2 switchover and V2 undervoltage thresholds. V1 is monitored continuously while V2 supply monitoring includes controllable low duty cycle UV monitoring. When primary input V1 drops, the ADJ monitor causes OUT to be switched to V2. When V2 drops, it is disconnected from OUT if V2DIS is low. Fast non-overlap switchover circuitry prevents reverse and cross conduction while minimizing output droop. Auxiliary voltage monitor CMP1 provides flexible voltage monitoring and output V2OK provides V2 undervoltage status. Freshness seal mode prevents V2 battery discharge during storage or shipment.
