PI2002 Datasheet | Vicor Corporation

Feature Description The PI2002 Cool-ORing TM solution is a high-speed Active ORing controller IC with a load disconnect feature designed for use with back-to-back Nchannel MOSFETs in redundant power system architectures. The PI2002 Cool-ORing controller enables an extremely low power loss solution with fast dynamic response to fault conditions, critical for high availability systems. The PI2002 controls backto-back MOSFETs providing true bi-directional switch capabilities to protect against both power source and load fault conditions. The gate drive output turns the MOSFETs on in normal steady state operation, while achieving highspeed turn-off during input power source fault conditions, that cause reverse current flow, with auto-reset once the fault clears. The PI2002 has the added benefit of being able to protect against output load fault conditions that may induce excessive forward current and device over-temperature by removing gate drive from the back-to-back MOSFETs with an auto-retry programmable off-time. The back-to-back MOSFETs drain-to-drain voltage is monitored to detect normal forward, excessive forward, light load and reverse current flow. The PI2002 provides an active low fault flag output to the system during fault condition. A temperature .. sensing function turns off the MOSFETs and indicates a fault if the junction temperature exceeds 145°C.
