3 Description
The LM74610-Q1 is a controller device that can be
used with an N-Channel MOSFET in a reverse
polarity protection circuitry. It is designed to drive an
external MOSFET to emulate an ideal diode rectifier
when connected in series with a power source. A
unique advantage of this scheme is that it is not
referenced to ground and thus has Zero Iq.
The LM74610-Q1 controller provides a gate drive for
an external N-Channel MOSFET and a fast response
internal comparator to discharge the MOSFET Gate
in the event of reverse polarity. This fast pull-down
feature limits the amount and duration of reverse
current flow if opposite polarity is sensed. The device
design also meets CISPR25 Class 5 EMI
specifications and automotive ISO7637 transient
requirements with a suitable TVS diode.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
Most systems in automotive or industrial applications require fast response reverse polarity protection at the input
stage. Schottky diodes or P-Channel MOSFETs are typically used in most power systems to protect the load in
the case of negative polarity. The main disadvantage of using diodes is voltage drop during forward conduction,
which reduces the available voltage and increases the associated power losses. PFET solutions are inefficient
for handling high load current at low input voltage.
The LM74610-Q1 is a zero Iq controller that is combined with an external N-channel MOSFET to replace a diode
or PFET reverse polarity solution in power systems. The voltage across the MOSFET source and drain is
constantly monitored by the LM74610-Q1 ANODE and CATHODE pins. An internal charge pump is used to
provide the GATE drive for the external MOSFET. . This stored energy is used to drive the gate of MOSFET. The
voltage drop depends on the RDSON of a particular MOSFET in use, which is significantly smaller than a PFET.
The LM74610-Q1 has no ground reference which makes it identical to a diode.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 During T0
When power is initially applied, the load current (ID) will flow through the body diode of the MOSFET and produce
a voltage drop (Vf) during T0 in Figure 9. This forward voltage drop (Vf) across the body diode of the MOSFET is
used to charge up the charge pump capacitor Vcap. During this time, the charge pump capacitor Vcap is
charged to a higher threshold of 6.3V (typical).

7.3.2 During T1
Once the voltage on the capacitor reaches the higher voltage level of 6.3V (typical), the charge pump is disabled
and the MOSFET turns ON. The energy stored in the capacitor is used to provide the gate drive for the MOSFET
(T1 in Figure 9). When the MOSFET is ON, it provides a low resistive path for the drain current to flow and
minimizes the power dissipation associated with forward conduction. The power losses during the MOSFET ON
state depend primarily on the RDSON of the selected MOSFET and load current. At the time when the capacitor
voltage reaches its lower threshold VcapL 5.15V (typical), the MOSFET gate turns OFF. The drain current ID will
then begin to flow through the body diode of the MOSFET, causing the MOSFET body diode voltage drop to
appear across Anode and Cathode pins. The charge pump circuitry is re-activated and begins charging the
charge pump capacitor. The LM74610-Q1 operation keeps the MOSFET ON at approximately 98% duty cycle
(typical) regardless of the external charge pump capacitor value. This is the key factor to minimizing the power
losses. The forward voltage drop during this time is determined by the RDSON of the MOSFET.
7.3.3 Pin Operation
7.3.3.1 Anode and Cathode Pins
The LM74610-Q1 Anode and Cathode pins are connected to the source and drain of the external MOSFET. The
current into the Anode pin is 30 µA (typical). When power is initially applied, the load current flows through the
body diode of the external MOSFET, the voltage across Anode and Cathode pins is equal to the forward diode
drop (Vf). The minimum value of Vf required to enable the charge pump circuitry is 0.48V. Once the MOSFET is
turned ON, the Anode and Cathode pins constantly sense the voltage difference across the MOSFET to
determine the magnitude and polarity of the voltage across it. When the MOSFET is on, the voltage difference
across Anode and Cathode pins depends on the RDSON and load current. If voltage difference across source and
drain of the external MOSFET becomes negative, this is sensed as a fault condition by Anode and Cathode pins
and gate is turned off by Gate Pull Down pin as shown in Figure 1. The reverse voltage threshold across Anode
and Cathode to detect the fault condition is -20 mV. The consistent sensing of voltage polarity across the
MOSFET enables the LM74610-Q1 to provide a fast response to the power source failure and limit the amount
and duration of the reverse current flow.
7.3.3.2 VcapH and VcapL Pins
VcapH and VcapL are high and low voltage thresholds respectively that the LM74610-Q1 uses to detect when to
turn the charge pump circuitry ON and OFF. The capacitor charging and discharging time can be correlated to
the duty cycle of the MOSFET gate. Figure 10 shows the voltage behavior across the Vcap. During the time
period T0, the capacitor is storing energy from the charge pump. The MOSFET is turned off and current flow is
only through the body diode during this time period. The conduction though body diode of the MOSFET is for a

Feature Description (continued)
very small period of time (2% typical) which rules out the chances of overheating the MOSFET, regardless of the
output current. Once the capacitor voltage reaches its high threshold, the MOSFET is turned ON and charge
pump circuity is deactivated until the Vcap reaches its lower voltage threshold again (T1). The voltage difference
between Vcap high and low threshold is typically 1.15V. The LM74610-Q1 charge pump has 46µA charging
capability with 5-8MHz frequency.

Figure 10. Vcap Charging and Discarding by the Charge Pump
The Vcap current consumption is 1 µA (typical) to drive the gate. The MOSFET OFF time (T0) and ON time (T1)
can be calculated using the following expression
dV
'T C
dI
(1)
Where:
• C = Vcap Capacitance
• dV = 1.15V
• dI = 46 µA for charging
• dI = 0.95 µA for discharging
Note: Temperature dependence of these parameters – The duty cycle is dependent on temperature since the
capacitance variation over temperature has a direct correlation to the MOSFET OFF and ON periods and the
frequency. If the capacitor varies 20% the periods and the frequency will also vary by 20% so it is recommended
to use a quality X7R/COG cap and not to place the cap in close proximity to high temperature devices. The
variation of the capacitor does not have a thermal impact in the application as the duty cycle does not change.
7.3.3.3 Gate Drive Pin
When the charge pump capacitor is charged to the high voltage level of 6.3 V (typical), the Gate Drive pin
provides a 6.8 µA (typical) of drive current. When the charge pump capacitor reaches its lower voltage threshold
of 5.15 V (typical), Gate is pulled down to the Anode voltage (Vin). During normal operation, the gate turns ON
and OFF with a slow 2msec slew rate in order to avoid switching noise and EMI issues. To protect the gate of
the MOSFET, a built-in internal 11.5V Zener clamp the maximum gate to source voltage (VGS(MAX)).
7.3.3.4 Gate Pull Down Pin
The Gate Pull Down pin is connected to the Gate Drive pin in a typical application circuit. When the controller
detects negative polarity, possibly due to failure of the input supply or voltage ripple, the Pull-Down quickly
discharges the MOSFET gate through a discharge transistor. The Gate Pull Down pin can discharge the
MOSFET gate capacitance with 160-mA pull down current to speed up the MOSFET turn OFF time. This fast pull
down reacts regardless of the Vcap charge level. If the input supply abruptly fails, as would happen if the supply
gets shorted to ground, a reverse current will temporarily flow through the MOSFET. This reverse current can be
due to parallel connected supplies and load capacitance and is dependent upon the RDSON of the MOSFET.

Feature Description (continued)
When the negative voltage across the Anode and Cathode pins reaches -20mV (typical), the LM74610-Q1
immediately reacts and discharges the MOSFET gate capacitance as shown in Figure 11 . A MOSFET with 5nF
of effective gate capacitance can be turned off by the LM74610-Q1 within 2µs (typical). The fast turnoff time
minimizes the reverse current flow from MOSFET drain by opening the circuit. The reverse leakage current does
not exceed 110µA for a constant 13.5V reverse voltage across Anode and Cathode pins. The reverse leakage
current for a Schottky diode is 15mA under the same voltage and temperature conditions.

7.4 Device Functional Modes
The LM74610-Q1 operates in two modes:
• Body Diode Conduction Mode
The LM74610-Q1 solution works like a conventional diode during this time with higher forward voltage drop.
The power dissipation during this time can be given as:
PDissipation
VForward Drop u IDrain Current

However, the current only flows through the body diode while the MOSFET gate is being charged to VGS(TH).
This conduction is only for 2% duty cycle, therefore it does not cause any thermal issues.

The MOSFET Conduction Mode
The MOSFET is turned on during this time and current flow is only through the MOSFET. The forward voltage
drop and power losses are limited by the RDSON of the specific MOSFET used in the solution. The LM74610Q1 solution output is comprised of the MOSFET conduction mode for 98% of its duty cycle. This time period
is given by the following expression:

7.4.1 Duty Cycle Calculation
The LM74610-Q1 has an operating duty cycle of 98% at 25 ̊C and >90% at 125 ̊C. The duty cycle doesn’t
depend on the Vcap capacitance value. However, the variation in capacitance value over temperature has direct
correlation to the switching frequency between the MOSFET and body diode. If the capacitance value decreases,
the charging and discharging time will also decrease, causing more frequent switching between body diode and
the MOSFET condition. The following expression can be used to calculate the duty cycle of the LM74610-Q1:

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The LM74610-Q1 is used with N-Channel MOSFET controller in a typical reverse polarity protection application.
This device is connected to the N-Channel MOSFET as shown in Figure 12 . The schematic for the typical
application is shown in Figure 13 where the LM74610-Q1 is used in series with a battery to drive the MOSFET
Q1. The TVS+ and TVS- are not required for the LM74610-Q1. However, they are typically used to clamp the
positive and negative voltage surges respectively. The output capacitor Cout is recommended to protect the
immediate output voltage collapse as a result of line disturbance.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
To begin the design process, determine the following:
8.2.2.1 Design Considerations
• Input voltage range
• Output current range
• Body Diode forward voltage drop for the selected MOSFET
• MOSFET Gate threshold voltage
8.2.2.2 Startup Voltage
The LM74610-Q1 will not initiate the charge pump operation if a closed loop system is in standby mode or the
drain current is smaller than 1mA (typical). This is due to a minimum body diode voltage requirement of the
LM74610-Q1 controller. If the drain current is too small to produce a minimum voltage drop of 0.48V at 25 ͦC, the
charge pump circuitry will remain off and the MOSFET will act just like a diode. It is very important to know the
body diode voltage parameter of a MOSFET before implementing it into the Smart Diode solution. Some Nchannels MOSFETs have very low body diode voltage at higher temperature. This makes their drain current
requirement higher to achieve 0.48V across the body diode in order to initiate the LM74610-Q1 controller at
higher temperatures.
8.2.2.3 Capacitor Selection
A ceramic capacitor should be placed between VcapL and VcapH. The capacitor acts as a holding tank to power
up the control circuitry when the MOSFET is on.
When the MOSFET is off, this capacitor is charged up to higher voltage threshold of ~6.3 V. Once this voltage is
reached, the Gate Drive of LM74610-Q1 will provide drive for the external MOSFET. When the MOSFET is ON,
the voltage across its body diode is collapsed because the forward conduction is through the MOSFET. During
this time, the capacitor acts as a supply for the Gate Drive to keep the MOSFET ON.
The capacitor voltage will gradually decay when the MOSFET is ON. Once the capacitor voltage reaches a lower
voltage threshold of 5.15V, the MOSFET is turned off and the capacitor gets recharged again for the next cycle.
A capacitor value of 220nF to 4.7uF with X7R/COG characteristic and 16V rating or higher is recommended for
this application. A higher value capacitor sets longer MOSFET ON time and OFF time; however, the duty cycle
remains at ~98% for MOSFET ON time irrespective of capacitor value.
If the Vcap value is 2.2µF, the MOSFET ON time and OFF time can be calculated using Equation 1 :
MOSFET ON Time = (2.2 µF × 1.15 V)/0.95 µA = 2.66 seconds
Body Diode ON Time = (2.2 µF × 1.15 V)/46 µA = 55 miliseconds
(6)
(7)
The duty cycle can be calculated using Equation 5 :
Duty Cycle % = 2.66 sec / (2.66 sec + 0.055 sec) = 98%

8.2.2.4 MOSFET Selection
The LM74610-Q1 can provide up to 5V of gate to source voltage (VGS). The important MOSFET electrical
parameters are the maximum continuous Drain current ID, the maximum drain-to-source voltage VDS(MAX), and
the drain-to-source On resistance RDSON. The maximum continuous drain current, ID, rating must exceed the
maximum continuous load current. The rating for the maximum current through the body diode, IS, is typically
rated the same as, or slightly higher than the drain current, but body diode current only flows for a small period
when the charge pump capacitor is being charged.
The voltage across the MOSFET's body diode must be higher than 0.48 V at low current. The body diode voltage
for a MOFET typically decreases as the ambient temperature increases. This will increase the source current
requirement to achieve the minimum body diode drain-to-source voltage for the charge pump to initiate. The
maximum drain-to-source voltage, VDS(MAX), must be high enough to withstand the highest differential voltage
seen in the application. This would include any anticipated fault conditions. The LM74610-Q1 does not have
positive voltage limitation, however, it is recommended to use MOSFETs with voltage rating up to 45 V for
automotive applications. Table 2 shows the examples of recommended MOSFETs to be used with the LM74610Q1.

8.2.4 Selection of TVS Diodes in Automotive Reverse Polarity Applications
TVS diodes can be used in automotive systems for protection against transients. There are 2 types of TVS
diode, one that offers bi-directional clamping and one that is uni-directional. In the application circuit show in
Figure 12, 2 unidirectional TVS diodes are used. TVS + does the clamping for positive pulses as seen in load
dump and TVS- does the clamping for negative pulses such as seen in the ISO specs.
There are two important specs to be aware of: breakdown voltage and clamping voltage. Breakdown voltage is
the voltage at which the TVS diode goes into avalanche similar to a zener diode and is specified at a low current
value typ 1mA. Clamping voltage is the voltage the TVS diode clamps to in high current pulse situations.
In the case of an ISO 7637-2 pulse 1, the voltages go to -150V with a generator impedance of 10Ω. This
translates to 15A flowing through the TVS - and the voltage across the TVS would be close to its clamping
voltage. A rule of thumb with TVS diode voltage selection is that the breakdown voltage should be higher than
worst case steady state voltages seen in the system. TVS diodes are meant to clamp pulses and not meant for
steady state voltages.
The value of the TVS + is selected such that the breakdown voltage of the TVS is higher than 24V which is a
commonly used battery for jump start. LM74610-Q1 does not have a positive voltage limit so the selection of the
voltage rating of TVS + is determined by the max voltage tolerated by the downstream electronics. If the
downstream parts can withstand at least 37V (suppressed load dump) then there is no need to use the TVS+. In
this case it can be replaced with a diode as seen in Figure 20. A 1A diode with a 30A surge current rating and at
least 40V reverse voltage rating is recommended. In case positive clamping voltage is desired then
SMBJ24A/SMBJ26A is recommended for TVS + as seen in Figure 12.

The value of the TVS – is selected such that 2 criteria are met. The breakdown voltage of the TVS should be
higher than the max reverse battery voltage which is typically 15V. The second criterion is that the abs max
rating for reverse voltage of the LM74610 is not exceeded (-45V).

SNOSCZ1B – JULY 2015 – REVISED JUNE 2016
In case of reverse voltage pulses such as in ISO specs, the LM74610 turns the MOSFET off. When the MOSFET
turns off the voltage seen by the LM74610, Anode to Cathode is - (clamping voltage of TVS- (plus) the output
capacitor voltage). If the max voltage on output capacitors is 16V, then the clamping voltage of the TVS- should
not exceed, 45V – 16V = 29V.
SMBJ14A/SMBJ15A/SMBJ16A TVS diodes can be used for TVS-. The breakdown voltage of SMBJ14A is 15.6V
and SMBJ16A is 17.8V. This meets criteria one. The clamping voltage of SMBJ14A is 23.2V and SMBJ16A is
26V. This meets the second criteria.
Bi-directional TVS diodes are not recommended due to their symmetrical clamping specs. SMBJ24CA has a
breakdown voltage of 26.7V and a clamping voltage of 38.9V. The breakdown voltage meets the criteria for being
higher than 24V. However the clamping voltage is 38.9V. The high clamping voltage is not an issue for the
positive pulses however for a negative ISO pulse, the abs max of the LM74610 can be violated. Voltage across
Anode to Cathode in this case is –(38.9V + 16V) = -54.9V which violates abs max rating of -45V.
As far as power levels for TVS diodes the ‘B’ in the SMBJ stands for 600W peak power levels. This is sufficient
for ISO 7637-2 pulses and suppressed load dump case (ISO-16750-2 pulse B). For unsuppressed load dumps
(ISO-16750-2 pulse A) higher power TVS diodes such as SMCJ or SMDJ may be required.
8.2.5 OR-ing Application Configuration
Basic redundant power architecture comprises of two or more voltage or power supply sources driving a single
load. In its simplest form, the OR-ing solution for redundant power supplies consists of Schottky OR-ing diodes
that protect the system against an input power supply fault condition. A diode OR-ing device provides effective
and low cost solution with few components. However, the diodes forward voltage drops affects the efficiency of
the system permanently, since each diode in an OR-ing application spends most of its time in forward conduction
mode. These power losses increase the requirements for thermal management and allocated board space.
The LM74610-Q1 ICs combined with external N-Channel MOSFETs can be used to in OR-ing Solution as shown
in Figure 21 . The source to drain voltage VDS for each MOSFET is monitored by the Anode and Cathode pins of
the LM74610-Q1. The forward conduction is through MOSFETs 98% of the time which avoids the diode forward
voltage drop. The body diode of each MOSFET only conducts the remaining 2% of the time to allow the charge
pump capacitor to be fully charged.
This is essential for an OR-ing device to quickly detect the reverse current and instantly pull-down the MOSFET
gate to block the reverse current flow. An effective OR-ing solution needs to be extremely fast to limit the reverse
current amount and duration. The LM74610-Q1 devices in OR-ing configuration constantly sense the voltage
difference between Anode and Cathode pins, which are the voltage levels at the power sources (PS1, PS2) and
the common load point respectively. When either of the power sources operates at lower voltage, the LM74610Q1 detects a negative polarity and shuts down the Gate Drive through a fast Pull-Down within 2μsec (typical).

9 Power Supply Recommendations
While testing the LM74610-Q1 solution, it is important to use low impedance power supply which allows current
sinking. If the power supply does not allow current sinking, it would prevent the current flow in the reverse
direction in the event of reverse polarity. The MOSFET gate won't get pulled down immediately due to the
absence of reverse current flow.

22
The VIN terminal is recommended to have a low-ESR ceramic bypass-capacitor. The typical recommended
bypass capacitance is a 10-μF ceramic capacitor with a X5R or X7R dielectric.
The VIN terminal must be tied to the source of the MOSFET using a thick trace or polygon.
The Anode pin of the LM74610-Q1 is connected to the Source of the MOSFET for sensing.
The Cathode pin of the LM74610-Q1 is connected to the drain of the MOSFET for sensing.
The high current path of for this solution is through the MOSFET, therefor it is important to use thick traces for
source and drain of the MOSFET.
The charge pump capacitor Vcap must be kept away from the MOSFET to lower the thermal effects on the
capacitance value.
The Gate Drive and Gate pull down pins of the LM74610-Q1 must be connected to the MOSFET gate without
using vias. Avoid excessively thin traces to the Gate Drive.
Obtaining acceptable performance with alternate layout schemes is possible, however this layout has been
shown to produce good results and is intended as a guideline.
Keep the Drive pin close to the MOSFET to avoid further reduce MOSFET turn-on delay.
