APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
SUPPLY OVERVOLTAGE DETECTION/
PROTECTION USING FILTER PIN
In addition to using external protection devices around the
LTC4211 for large scale transient protection, low power
Zener diodes can be used with the LTC4211’s FILTER pin
to act as a supply overvoltage detection/protection circuit
on either the high side (input) or low side (output) of the
external pass transistor. Recall that internal control cir-
cuitry keeps the LTC4211 GATE voltage from ramping up
if V

High Side (Input) Overvoltage Protection
As shown in Figure 23, a low power Zener diode can be
used to sense an overvoltage condition on the input
(high) side of the main 5V supply. In this example, a low
bias current 1N4691 Zener diode is chosen to protect the
system. Here, the Zener diode is connected from V
the LTC4211’s FILTER pin (Pin 3 MS). If the input voltage
to the system is greater than 6.8V during start-up, the
voltage on the FILTER pin is pulled higher than its 1.156V

to
threshold. As a result, the GATE pin is not allowed to ramp
and the second timing cycle will not commence until the
supply overvoltage condition is removed. Should the
supply overvoltage condition occur during normal op-
eration, internal control logic would trip the electronic
circuit breaker and the GATE would be pulled to ground,
shutting OFF the external pass transistor. If a lower
supply overvoltage threshold is desired, use a Zener
diode with a smaller breakdown voltage.
A timing diagram for illustrating LTC4211 operation under
a high side overvoltage condition is shown in Figure 24.
The start-up sequence in this case (between Time Points
1 and 2) is identical to any other start-up sequence under
normal operating conditions. At Time Point 2A, the input
supply voltage causes the Zener diode to conduct thereby
forcing V
asserted low and the TIMER pin voltage ramps down. At
Time Point 4, the LTC4211 checks if V
