Part Number:LM5060-Q1
Hello,
we're looking for an IC that can control a high side back to back N-MOSFETs power supply switch.
There are up to 5 independently controlled switches in the considered application. IC with an integrated charge pump is preferred, but less integrated solutions are acceptable as well (for example circuits that relay on an external charge pump).
Important aspects:
- Cost, including required external components.
- Switch has to withstand at least 32V for 300ms.
- Reverse polarity protection.
- GS voltage in on state around 10V.
- Failure modes – does a damaged component (for example MOSFET) in one channel affects operation of other channels?
- Possibility to disable/configure overload protection on the switch side if such feature is present in the IC.
- EMC robustness.
- Current consumption in the disabled state.
LM5060-Q1 looks promising, but requires external components for functions that are not needed in our application (UVLO, OVP, VDS Fault Detection). An IC with access to the internal charge pump would be better, so the charge pump voltage can be reused in the circuit to drive other switches (provided the charge pump stays active if the switch is disabled). Load discharge by the OUT pin in the off state is not desirable in some of the intended applications.
LM74700-Q1 does not seem to provide switch-off functionality by the EN pin. It looks like back-to-back MOSFET arrangement is not possible – the ANODE pin provides both reference for GATE voltage and supply for the charge pump.
Can you recommend any better alternatives?
About the high side drivers without integrated charge pump: can TI offer an IC that can act as a switch between a charge pump and a MOSFET gate in a high side back-to-back arrangement (level shifter)?
Thanks for your help.
