APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Select Between Two Input Supplies
With the part in shutdown, the V
driven by separate power supplies. The LTC4365 then
automatically drives the GATE pin just below the lower of
the two supplies, thus turning off the external back-to-back
MOSFETs. The application of Figure 11 uses two LTC4365s
to select between two power supplies. Care should be taken
to ensure that only one of the two LTC4365s is enabled
at any given time.

Limiting Inrush Current During Turn-On
The LTC4365 turns on the external N-channel MOSFET
with a 20μA current source. The maximum slew rate at
the GATE pin can be reduced by adding a capacitor on
the GATE pin:
Since the MOSFET acts like a source follower, the slew
rate at V
Therefore, inrush current is given by:
For example, a 1A inrush current to a 330μF output
capacitance requires a GATE capacitance of:
The 6.8nF C
Figure 13 limits the inrush current to approximately 1A.
