APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO

Power Supply Tracking and Sequencing

The LTC2926 handles a variety of power-up profiles to

satisfy the requirements of digital logic circuits including

FPGAs, PLDs, DSPs and microprocessors. These require-

ments fall into one of the four general categories illustrated

in Figures 1 to 4.

Some applications require that the potential difference

between two power supplies must never exceed a speci-

fied voltage. This requirement applies during power-up

and power-down as well as during steady-state operation,

often to prevent destructive latch-up in a dual supply IC.

Typically, this is achieved by ramping the supplies up

and down together (Figure 1). In other applications it is

desirable to have the supplies ramp up and down ratio-

metrically (Figure 2) or with fixed voltage offsets between

them (Figure 3).

Certain applications require one supply to come up after

another. For example, a system clock may need to start

before a block of logic. In this case, the supplies are se-

quenced as in Figure 4, where the 1.8V supply ramps up

completely followed by the 2.5V supply.

Operation

The LTC2926 provides a simple solution to allow all of

the power supply tracking and sequencing profiles shown

in Figures 1 to 4. A single LTC2926 controls up to three

supplies: two “slave” supplies that track a “master” signal.

With just four resistors and an external N-channel MOSFET,

each slave supply is configured to ramp up and down as

a function of the master signal. This master signal can

be a third supply that is ramped up through an external

MOSFET, whose ramp rate is set with a single capacitor,

or it can be a signal generated by tying the MGATE and

RAMP pins together to an external capacitor.

Tracking Cell and Gate Controller Cell

The LTC2926’s operation is based on the combination of

a tracking cell and a gate controller cell that is shown in

Figure 5. The tracking cell servos the TRACK pin at 0.8V,

and the current supplied by the TRACK pin is mirrored at the

FB pin. The gate controller cell servos the FB pin at 0.8V by

driving the gate of the external N-channel MOSFET (QEXT),

and establishes the slave output voltage at the source of

the MOSFET based on the TRACK pin current and resistors
