LTC4211
APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
voltage side of the MOSFET switch. An abrupt connection,
produced by inserting the board into a backplane connec-
tor, resulting in a fast rising edge applied on the supply line
of the LTC4211.
Since there is no bulk capacitance to damp the parasitic
track inductance, supply voltage transients excite
parasitic resonant circuits formed by the power MOSFET
capacitance and the combined parasitic inductance from
the wiring harness, the backplane and the circuit board
traces.
In these applications, there are two methods that should
be applied together for eliminating these supply voltage
transients: using transient voltage suppressor to clip the
transient to a safe level and snubber networks. Snubber
networks are series RC networks whose time constants
are experimentally determined based on the board’s para-
sitic resonance circuits. As a starting point, the capacitors
in these networks are chosen to be 10× to 100× the power
MOSFET’s C
determined experimentally and ranges from 1Ω to 50Ω,
depending on the parasitic resonance circuit. For applica-
tions with supply voltages of 12V or higher the ringing and
overshoot during hot-swapping or when the output is
short-circuited can easily exceed the absolute maximum
specification of the LTC4211. To reduce the danger,
transient voltage suppressors and snubber networks are
highly recommended. For applications with lower supply

voltage such as 5V, usually a snubber is adequate to
reduce the supply ringing. Although, the need of a tran-
sient voltage suppressor arises for inductive and high
current application. Note that in all LTC4211 5V applica-
tions schematics, transient suppressor and snubber net-
works have been added for protection. The transient
suppressor is optional and a simple short-circuit test can
be performed to determine the need of it. These protection
networks should be mounted very close to the LTC4211’s
supply input rail using short lead lengths to minimize lead
inductance. This is shown schematically in Figure 21, and
a recommended layout of the transient protection devices
around the LTC4211 is shown in Figure 22.
