TPS2410 Overview
The TPS241x controller, in conjunction with an external N-channel MOSFET, emulates the function of a low forward-voltage diode. The device can be used to bine multiple power supplies to a mon bus in an N+1 configuration, or to bine redundant input power buses. The TPS2410 provides a linear turn-on control while the TPS2411 has an on/off control method.
