AAT4710
Power Path with Input Current Limit and Capacitor Charger
General Description
Features
The AAT4710 is a programmed, current limited P-channel
MOSFET power switch designed for high-side load-switching applications for SSD memory buffer saving solutions.
With the programmed current limit, the AAT4710 ensures
that the power ratings of the host are not exceeded and
balances the system load and supercap charging current
automatically to provide enough system load current in
top-priority. The integrated discharge path control assures
that the system load can still be supported in the short
term when the input power has not fully charged the
supercap. The current limit is programmed by an external
resistor allowing ±10% accuracy at room temperature.
• VCC Range: 2.5V – 5.5V
• Input Current Limits:
▪ 75 - 1200mA
▪ ±10% Current Accuracy at 1A Input Current Limit
Setting
• Low Quiescent Current:
▪ 70µA Typical (VCC Input)
▪ 12µA Typical (OUT Input)
• Under-Voltage Lockout
• Integrated Discharge Path for SYS (to System Load)
from VCC Input or OUT Input (Connect to Supercap)
• Maximum 100mΩ RDS(ON) from OUT to SYS at 5V VCC
• Reverse Blocking Protection
• Power Loop Current Reduction
• Over-Temperature Protection
• SYS Short Circuit Protection
• Input Power Good Detect Threshold Setting (ADJ)
• Input Power Good Indicate (POK)
• Supercap Charge Ready (RDY) Output
• Temperature Range: -40 to 85°C
• 16-Pin TDFN34 Package
The AAT4710 integrates discharge path for SYS (to
system load) from VCC input or OUT input (connect to
supercap). The low RDS(ON) from OUT to SYS prolongs the
supercap backup time when VCC drops below a threshold
voltage which is programmed by an external resistor
from ADJ to ground.
The AAT4710 incorporates a POK function which can
indicate system input power good. An ADJ pin is provided with the addition of an external resistor for setting
the input power good detect threshold. The AAT4710
also incorporates a supercap charge ready (RDY) indicate
function. The quiescent supply current is typically a low
70µA from the discharge path of VCC to SYS.

Functional Description
The AAT4710 is an integrated P-channel MOSFET load
switch with adjustable current limits, integrated discharge
path, over temperature protection, a power loop and a
super capacitor charger. The input current limit control is
combined with an over-temperature thermal limit and
power loop circuit to provide a comprehensive system to
protect the load switch and its supply from load conditions
exceeding the supply specifications. The AAT4710
integrates the discharge path for SYS (to system load)
from the VCC input or OUT input (connected to supercap)
determined by whether VCC is higher than the programmed
threshold setting by ADJ through an external resistor.
The input current is limited and is programmed by an
external resistor for both system load and supercapacitor charging; system load always has higher priority. The
device decreases supercapacitor charging current to
provide more current to system load when the system
load increases and keeps the host power rating from
exceeding the input current limit.
8
Power
Loop
ISET
The integrated over-temperature circuits act independently of the input current limit. The device input current
limit is activated when the output load current exceeds
an internal threshold level. The input current limit
threshold in each case is determined by external resistors connected between the ISET pin and ground. The
minimum input current limit threshold is specified by
ILIM(MIN). If the load condition maintains the device in current limit and the chip temperature reaches a critical
point, then an internal power loop will reduce the current
to a safe level.
VCC pin under-voltage lockout circuitry ensures that the
VCC supply is high enough for correct operation of the IC.
OUT pin under-voltage lockout circuitry ensures that the
VOUT supply is high enough for correct operation of the IC
when no VCC input power or VCC below UVLO voltage. An
integrated POK function is adopted to indicate the system input power good.

DATA SHEET
AAT4710
Power Path with Input Current Limit and Capacitor Charger
Setting the Input Current Limit
Discharge Path Control
The AAT4710 current limit is set via the ISET resistor.
The ISET node operates within a window of 0.6V to 1.2V
for resistor values ranging from 93.75kΩ to 1.5MΩ.
Resistor values outside this range are not recommended.
The ISET source current varies with the resistor value as
shown in Table 1.
When the input voltage drops below the power good
detect threshold programmed by the external resistor
from ADJ pin to GND and the OUT pin voltage is greater
than the VUVLO_OUT and SYS pin voltage, the AAT4710
turns on the OUT to SYS switch discharge path after 6µs
(TSW) response time, then turns off the path of VCC to
the SYS P-channel load switch. The OUT to SYS switch
remains continuously on until the OUT pin voltage falls
below VUVLO_OUT.
VISET = RSET · IISET = 0.6V to 1.2V
If the set pin is open circuit or allowed to exceed 2V, all
power devices are disabled and the input is disconnected
from the output.
SYS Load and Capacitor Charge
The input current limit is equal to the SYS current plus
the OUT charging current. If the SYS current increases/
decreases, the OUT charging current will automatically
decrease/increase accordingly by the device control
loop. For example, if the input current limit is programmed to 1A and the SYS load current is 0.5A, then
the OUT charging current is 0.5A; if the SYS load current
increases to 0.8A, the OUT current decreases to 0.2A
accordingly; if the SYS load current decreases to 0.2A,
the OUT current increases to 0.8A dynamically.
Power Loop
The AAT4710's power loop limits the load current if
device power dissipation becomes excessive. The power
loop decreases the load current gradually to 1/32 of the
current limit set point when the die temperature exceeds
110°C. The load current then increases in increments of
1/32 of the current limit set point until the set current
limit point is reached or the die temperature exceeds
110°C. Figures 1 and 2 show the the power loop function
as the device temperature increases and decreases at a
1A current limit setting.

Application Information
The delay time between die temperature measurements
varies depending on the load current limit set point. The
delay ranges from 0.5ms for a 75mA current limit set
point to 4ms for a 1.2A current limit set point.
The input current limit is programmed by RSET from ISET
to ground in the range from 75mA to 1.2A. The current
limit limits the maximum current of both VCC to SYS and
VCC to OUT. The RSET can be calculated by:
Over-Temperature Protection
If the die temperature rises quickly enough to exceed
the power loop regulated temperature, over-temperature shutdown disables the device. The over-temperature threshold is 145°C. After over-temperature shutdown, soft start is initiated once the die temperature
drops to 130°C.

Power OK Indicator (POK)
On initial power-up, if VCC is higher than the power good
detect threshold programmed by the external resistor
from the ADJ pin to GND, the POK signal switches from
low to high after 2µs delay time (TDETECT) to indicate input
power good.
If VCC drops below the power good detect point, the
POK signal switches from high to low after 2µs delay
time (TDETECT).
Capacitor Charge Ready Indicator (RDY)
The internal comparator senses the OUT voltage and
delivers a high level as ready signal to the external
microcontroller when the OUT voltage reaches 98% of
the VCC voltage with fixed 200mV hysteresis.
The capacitor charge ready pin (RDY) is an open drain
output. A external pull up resistor with a typical value of
100kΩ is required.

Power Good Detect Threshold Setting
The power good detect threshold (VPOK_TH) determines the
point at which the discharge path changes from VCC –
SYS to OUT – SYS if the OUT pin voltage is above VUVLO_
OUT and the SYS pin voltage. The power good detect
threshold is programmed by the external resistor RADJ
connected from the ADJ pin to GND. The RADJ value can

As the AAT4710 powers the system load, the device
automatically selects VCC or OUT as the power source.
OUT is designed to connect a supercapacitor as a backup
source. Figure 3 shows the discharge path control operation at 1A current limit setting. When VCC is powered on
from zero to 5V, the SYS voltage also rises to 5V and
500mA current is passed through from VCC to SYS as
system load. With the 1A current limit, the additional
500mA is used to charge the supercapacitor via IOUT as
shown. After 3.5 seconds, the 550mF supercapacitor is
fully charged; the charging current decreases to zero,
and ICC current decreases to 500mA. When VCC drops
from 5V to zero, the backup power source VOUT provides the 500mA load current to SYS until the supercapacitor voltage is discharged to below the UVLO voltage
threshold (typ. 1.8V).
A 10μF capacitor is typically recommended for CIN. CIN
should be located as close to the device VCC pin as practically possible. Ceramic, tantalum, or aluminum electrolytic capacitors may be selected for CIN. There is no specific capacitor equivalent series resistance (ESR) requirement for CIN. However, for higher current operation,
ceramic capacitors are recommended for CIN due to their
inherent capability over tantalum capacitors to withstand
input current surges from low impedance sources.

System Output Capacitor
A small output capacitance of approximately 10μF is
required at the system output. The output capacitor
helps to filter the SYS voltage when the device works
between reverse blocking and normal operation. For
higher output voltage ripple requirements at light load
(below 1/3 current limit), a greater output capacitor
value is required.

Reverse Blocking
The internal reverse blocking comparator disconnects
the VCC to SYS path by turning off the power PMOSFETs
when SYS is higher than VCC minus 18mV, preventing
any reverse current from the system load to the input.
With 22mV hysteresis, the VCC to SYS path will be
reconnected by turning on the power PMOSFETs when
the SYS voltage drops to VIN minus 40mV. The reverse
blocking comparator has a typical 5µs delay time, which
may lead to output voltage ripple on the SYS output at
light load. Increasing the SYS output capacitor value can
improve the output voltage ripple when the application
has special SYS voltage ripple requirements.
The AAT4710's OUT pin is designed to connect a supercapacitor to ground to give the system a backup when
VCC experiences short power interrupts. A supercapacitor offers high capacitance in a small package; it adopts
special electrodes and some electrolyte. Three types of
electrode materials are suitable for the supercapacitor:
high surface area activated carbons, metal oxide, and
conducting polymers. The first option is the lowest cost
to manufacture; the electrolyte usually is aqueous or
organic. An aqueous electrolyte offers low internal resistance but limits the voltage to 1V; the organic allows
2.5V of charge but has higher internal resistance. For
higher voltage applications, supercapacitors are connected in series. To prevent any cell from charging overvoltage, a balance resistor is required on a string of
more than three cells.
Three parameters should be considered when selecting a
supercapacitor. These parameters are capacitance, rated
voltage, and ESR. Table 4 shows some recommended
supercapacitors. Other parameters such as temperature
range, RMS current, leakage current, etc. should also be
considered during the system design.

Power Path with Input Current Limit and Capacitor Charger
SYS Short Circuit Protection
PCB Layout Recommendations
The series pass power MOSFET from VCC to SYS limits
the current to a low level after the SYS output shorts to
ground to protect the device and downstream components. During the fault condition, the power loop is still
active to monitor the die temperature and reduce the
current when the die temperature exceeds 110°C. Once
the short-circuit fault is removed, the SYS voltage recovers to the normal value automatically.
For proper thermal management and to take advantage
of the low RDS(ON) of the AAT4710, certain circuit board
layout rules should be followed:
1. VCC, VOUT, and VSYS should be routed using wide
traces.
2. GND should be connected to a ground plane. The
ground plane area connected to the ground pins
should be made as large as possible.
3. For best performance, CIN and CSYS should be placed
close to the VCC and SYS pins.
4. For maximum power dissipation of the AAT4710
TDFN package, the exposed pad should be soldered
to the board ground plane to further increase local
heat dissipation. A ground pad below the exposed
pad is strongly recommended.
The AAT4710 also includes short-circuit protection circuitry for the discharge path from OUT to SYS to avoid
large current discharging through the device over a long
term and avoid damage to the device.
