Ideal Diodes/Voltage References
- Senses the input and output voltages of two back-to-back p-channel MOSFETs to provide overvoltage protection with ideal-diode characteristics
- When forward biased, the two pFETs have a voltage drop that is much lower than a traditional blocking diode
- The two pFETs are turned off to prevent reverse current flow during reverse-battery fault conditions
- Shunt and series voltage reference ICs offer low-noise, high-accuracy, and excellent long-term stability performance
- Small package options for space-constrained applications, low-power options for portable and handheld devices, and low temperature coefficients for high-precision applications
