FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The LM5067 is designed to control the in-rush current to the load upon insertion of a circuit card into a live
backplane or other “hot” power source, thereby limiting the voltage sag on the backplane’s supply voltage, and
the dV/dt of the voltage applied to the load. Effects on other circuits in the system are minimized, preventing
possible unintended resets. During the system power up, the maximum power dissipation in the series pass
device is limited to a safe value within the device’s Safe Operating Area (SOA). After the system power up is
complete, the LM5067 monitors the load for excessive currents due to a fault or short circuit at the load. Limiting
the load current and/or the power in the external MOSFET for an extended period of time results in the shutdown
of the series pass MOSFET. After a fault event, the LM5067-1 latches off until the circuit is re-enabled by
external control, while the LM5067-2 automatically restarts with defined timing. The circuit breaker function
quickly switches off the series pass device upon detection of a severe over-current condition caused by, e.g. a
short circuit at the load. The Power Good (PGD) output pin indicates when the output voltage is close to the
normal operating value. Programmable under-voltage lock-out (UVLO) and over-voltage lock-out (OVLO) circuits
shut down the LM5067 when the system input voltage is outside the desired operating range. The typical
configuration of a circuit card with LM5067 hot swap protection is shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5. LM5067 Application
The LM5067 can be used in a variety of applications, other than plug-in boards, to monitor for excessive load
current, provide transient protection, and ensuring the voltage to the load is within preferred limits. The circuit
breaker function protects the system from a sudden short circuit at the load. Use of the UVLO/EN pin allows the
LM5067 to be used as a solid state relay. The PGD output provides a status indication of the voltage at the load
relative to the input system voltage.
Power Up Sequence
The system voltage range of the LM5067 is -9V to -80V, with a transient capability to -100V. Referring to the
Block Diagram,Figure 4, and Figure 6, as the system voltage (VSYS) initially increases from zero, the external N-
channel MOSFET (Q1) is held off by an internal 110 mA pull-down current at the GATE pin. The strong pull-
down current at the GATE pin prevents an inadvertent turn-on as the MOSFET’s gate-to-drain (Miller)
capacitance is charged. When the operating voltage of the LM5067 (VCC VEE) reaches the PORIT threshold
(7.7V) the insertion timer starts. During the insertion time, the capacitor at the TIMER pin (CT) is charged by a 6
µA current source, and Q1 is held off by a 2.2 mA pull-down current at the GATE pin regardless of the system
voltage. The insertion time delay allows ringing and transients at VSYS to settle before Q1 can be enabled. The
insertion time ends when the TIMER pin voltage reaches 4.0V above VEE, and CTis then quickly discharged by
an internal 1.5 mA pull-down current. After the insertion time, the LM5067 control circuitry is enabled when the
operating voltage reaches the POREN threshold (8.4V). As VSYS continues to increase, the LM5067 operating
voltage is limited at 13V by an internal zener diode. The remainder of the system voltage is dropped across the
input resistor RIN.

The GATE pin switches on Q1 when VSYS exceeds the UVLO threshold (UVLO pin >2.5V above VEE). If VSYS
exceeds the UVLO threshold at the end of the insertion time, Q1 is switched on at that time. The GATE pin
sources 52 µA to charge Q1’s gate capacitance. The maximum gate-to-source voltage of Q1 is limited by the
LM5067’s operating voltage (VZ) to approximately 13V. During power up, as the voltage at the OUT pin increases
in magnitude with respect to Ground, the LM5067 monitors Q1’s drain current and power dissipation. In-rush
current limiting and/or power limiting circuits actively control the current delivered to the load. During the in-rush
limiting interval (t2 in Figure 6) an internal current source charges CTat the TIMER pin. When the load current
reduces from the limiting value to a value determined by the load the in-rush limiting interval is complete and CT
is discharged. The PGD pin switches high when the voltage at the OUT pin reaches to within 1.25V of the
voltage at the SENSE pin.
If the TIMER pin voltage reaches 4.0V before in-rush current limiting or power limiting ceases (during t2), a fault
is declared and Q1 is turned off. See Fault Timer and Restart for a complete description of the fault mode.
Figure 6. Power Up Sequence (Current Limit only)
Operating Voltage
The LM5067 operating voltage is the voltage from VCC to VEE. The maximum operating voltage is set by an
internal 13V zener diode. With the IC connected as shown in Figure 4, the LM5067 controller operates in the
voltage range between VEE and VEE+13V. The remainder of the system voltage is dropped across the input
resistor RIN, which must be selected to pass at least 2 mA into the LM5067 at the minimum system voltage.

Gate Control
The external N-channel MOSFET is turned on when the GATE pin sources 52 µA to enhance the gate. During
normal operation (t3 in Figure 6) Q1’s gate is held charged to approximately 13V above VEE, typically within 20
mV of the voltage at VCC. If the maximum VGS rating of Q1 is less than 13V, a lower voltage external zener
diode must be added between the GATE and SENSE pins. The external zener diode must have a forward
current rating of at least 110 mA.
When the system voltage is initially applied (before the operating voltage reaches the PORIT threshold), the
GATE pin is held low by a 110 mA pull-down current. The pull-down current helps prevent an inadvertent turn-on
of the MOSFET through its drain-gate capacitance as the applied system voltage increases.
During the insertion time (t1 in Figure 6) the GATE pin is held low by a 2.2 mA pull-down current. This maintains
Q1 in the off-state until the end of t1, regardless of the voltage at VCC and UVLO.
Following the insertion time, during t2 in Figure 6, the gate voltage of Q1 is modulated to keep the current or
Q1’s power dissipation level from exceeding the programmed levels. Current limiting and power limiting are
considered fault conditions, during which the voltage on the TIMER pin capacitor increases. If the current and
power limiting cease before the TIMER pin reaches 4V the TIMER pin capacitor is discharged, and the circuit
enters normal operation. See Fault Timer and Restart for details on the fault timer.
If the system input voltage falls below the UVLO threshold, or rises above the OVLO threshold, the GATE pin is
pulled low by the 2.2 mA pull-down current to switch off Q1.
Figure 7. Gate Control
Current Limit
The current limit threshold is reached when the voltage across the sense resistor RS(SENSE to VEE) reaches
50 mV. In the current limiting condition, the GATE voltage is controlled to limit the current in MOSFET Q1. While
the current limit circuit is active, the fault timer is active as described in the Fault Timer & Restart section. If the
load current reduces below the current limit threshold before the end of the Fault Timeout Period, the LM5067
resumes normal operation. For proper operation, the RSresistor value should be no larger than 100 m.

Circuit Breaker
If the load current increases rapidly (e.g., the load is short-circuited) the current in the sense resistor (RS) may
exceed the current limit threshold before the current limit control loop is able to respond. If the current exceeds
approximately twice the current limit threshold (100 mV/RS), Q1’s gate is quickly pulled down by the 110 mA pull-
down current at the GATE pin, and a Fault Timeout Period begins. When the voltage across RSfalls below 100
mV the 110 mA pull-down current at the GATE pin is switched off, and the gate voltage of Q1 is then determined
by the current limit or the power limit functions. If the TIMER pin reaches 4.0V before the current limiting or
power limiting condition ceases, Q1 is switched off by the 2.2 mA pull-down current at the GATE pin as
described in the Fault Timer & Restart section.
Power Limit
An important feature of the LM5067 is the MOSFET power limiting. The Power Limit function can be used to
maintain the maximum power dissipation of MOSFET Q1 within the device SOA rating. The LM5067 determines
the power dissipation in Q1 by monitoring its drain-source voltage (OUT to SENSE), and the drain current
through the sense resistor (SENSE to VEE). The product of the current and voltage is compared to the power
limit threshold programmed by the resistor at the PWR pin. If the power dissipation reaches the limiting threshold,
the GATE voltage is modulated to reduce the current in Q1, and the fault timer is active as described in the Fault
Timer & Restart section.
Fault Timer and Restart
When the current limit or power limit threshold is reached during turn-on or as a result of a fault condition, the
gate-to-source voltage of Q1 is modulated to regulate the load current and power dissipation in Q1. When either
limiting function is active, an 85 µA fault timer current source charges the external capacitor (CT) at the TIMER
pin as shown in Figure 9 (Fault Timeout Period). If the fault condition subsides before the TIMER pin reaches
4.0V, the LM5067 returns to the normal operating mode and CTis discharged by the 2.5 µA current sink. If the
TIMER pin reaches 4.0V during the Fault Timeout Period, Q1 is switched off by a 2.2 mA pull-down current at
the GATE pin. The subsequent restart procedure depends on which version of the LM5067 is in use.
The LM5067-1 latches the GATE pin low at the end of the Fault Timeout Period, and CTis discharged by the 2.5
µA fault current sink. The GATE pin is held low until a power up sequence is externally initiated by cycling the
input voltage (VSYS), or momentarily pulling the UVLO/EN pin within 2.5V of VEE with an open-collector or open-
drain device as shown in Figure 8. The voltage across CTmust be <0.3V for the restart procedure to be effective.
Figure 8. Latched Fault Restart Control
The LM5067-2 provides an automatic restart sequence which consists of the TIMER pin cycling between 4.0V
and 1.25V seven times after the Fault Timeout Period, as shown in Figure 9. The period of each cycle is
determined by the 85 µA charging current, and the 2.5 µA discharge current, and the value of the capacitor CT.
When the TIMER pin reaches 0.3V during the eighth high-to-low ramp, the 52 µA current source at the GATE pin
turns on Q1. If the fault condition is still present, the Fault Timeout Period and the restart cycle repeat.

Figure 9. Restart Sequence (LM5067-2)
Under-Voltage Lock-Out (UVLO)
The series pass MOSFET (Q1) is enabled when the input supply voltage (VSYS) is within the operating range
defined by the programmable under-voltage lockout (UVLO) and over-voltage lock-out (OVLO) levels. Typically
the UVLO level at VSYS is set with a resistor divider (R1-R3) as shown in Figure 4. When VSYS is less than the
UVLO level, the internal 22 µA current sink at UVLO/EN is enabled, the current source at OVLO is off, and Q1 is
held off by the 2.2 mA pull-down current at the GATE pin. VSYS reaches its UVLO level when the voltage at the
UVLO/EN pin reaches 2.5V above VEE. Upon reaching the UVLO level, the 22 µA current sink at the UVLO/EN
pin is switched off, increasing the voltage at the pin, providing hysteresis for this threshold. With the UVLO/EN
pin above 2.5V, Q1 is switched on by the 52 µA current source at the GATE pin.
See Application Information for a procedure to calculate the values of the threshold setting resistors (R1-R3). The
minimum possible UVLO level can be set by connecting the UVLO/EN pin to VCC. In this case Q1 is enabled
when the operating voltage (VCC VEE) reaches the POREN threshold (8.4V).
Over-Voltage Lock-Out (OVLO)
The series pass MOSFET (Q1) is enabled when the input supply voltage (VSYS) is within the operating range
defined by the programmable under-voltage lockout (UVLO) and over-voltage lock-out (OVLO) levels. Typically
the OVLO level at VSYS is set with a resistor divider (R1-R3) as shown in Figure 4. If VSYS raises the OVLO pin
voltage more than 2.5V above VEE Q1 is switched off by the 2.2 mA pull-down current at the GATE pin, denying
power to the load. When the OVLO pin is above 2.5V, the internal 22 µA current source at OVLO is switched on,
raising the voltage at OVLO and providing threshold hysteresis. When the voltage at the OVLO pin is reduced
below 2.5V the 22 µA current source is switched off, and Q1 is enabled. See Application Information for a
procedure to calculate the threshold setting resistor values.
Shutdown/Enable Control
See Application Information for a description of how to use the UVLO/EN pin and/or the OVLO pin for remote
shutdown and enable control of the LM5067.
Power Good Pin
The Power Good output indicator pin (PGD) is connected to the drain of an internal N-channel MOSFET. An
external pull-up resistor is required at PGD to an appropriate voltage to indicate the status to downstream
circuitry. The off-state voltage at the PGD pin must be more positive than VEE, and can be up to 80V above VEE
with transient capability to 100V. PGD is switched high at the end of the turn-on sequence when the voltage from
OUT to SENSE (the external MOSFET’s VDS) decreases below 1.23V. PGD switches low if the MOSFET’s VDS
increases past 2.5V, if the system input voltage goes below the UVLO threshold or above the OVLO threshold,
or if a fault is detected. The PGD output is high when the operating voltage (VCC-VEE) is less than 2V.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (REFER TO FIGURE 4)
RIN, CIN
The LM5067 operating voltage is determined by an internal 13V shunt regulator which receives its current from
the system voltage via RIN. When the system voltage exceeds 13V, the LM5067 operating voltage (VCC VEE)
is between VEE and VEE+13V. The remainder of the system voltage is dropped across the input resistor RIN,
which must be selected to pass at least 2 mA into the LM5067 at the minimum system voltage. The resistor’s
power rating must be selected based on the power dissipation at maximum system voltage, calculated from:
PRIN = (VSYS(max) 13V)2/RIN (1)
CURRENT LIMIT, RS
The LM5067 monitors the current in the external MOSFET (Q1) by measuring the voltage across the sense
resistor (RS), connected from SENSE to VEE. The required resistor value is calculated from:
where
ILIM is the desired current limit threshold (2)
When the voltage across RSreaches 50 mV, the current limit circuit modulates the gate of Q1 to regulate the
current at ILIM. While the current limiting circuit is active, the fault timer is active as described in the Fault Timer &
Restart section. For proper operation, RSmust be no larger than 100 m.
While the maximum load current in normal operation can be used to determine the required power rating for
resistor RS, basing it on the current limit value provides a more reliable design since the circuit can operate near
the current limit threshold continuously. The resistor’s surge capability must also be considered since the circuit
breaker threshold is approximately twice the current limit threshold. Connections from RSto the LM5067 should
be made using Kelvin techniques. In the suggested layout of Figure 10 the small pads at the upper corners of the
sense resistor connect only to the sense resistor terminals, and not to the traces carrying the high current. With
this technique, only the voltage across the sense resistor is applied to VEE and SENSE, eliminating the voltage
drop across the high current solder connections.
Figure 10. Sense Resistor Connections
POWER LIMIT THRESHOLD
The LM5067 determines the power dissipation in the external MOSFET (Q1) by monitoring the drain current (the
current in RS), and the VDS of Q1 (OUT to SENSE pins). The resistor at the PWR pin (RPWR) sets the maximum
power dissipation for Q1, and is calculated from the following equation:

RPWR = 1.42 x 105x RSx PFET(LIM)
where
PFET(LIM) is the desired power limit threshold for Q1
RSis the current sense resistor described in the Current Limit section (3)
For example, if RSis 10 m, and the desired power limit threshold is 60W, RPWR calculates to 85.2 k. If Q1’s
power dissipation reaches the power limit threshold, Q1’s gate is modulated to control the load current, keeping
Q1’s power from exceeding the threshold. For proper operation of the power limiting feature, RPWR must be 150
k. While the power limiting circuit is active, the fault timer is active as described in the Fault Timer & Restart
section. Typically, power limit is reached during startup, or when the VDS of Q1 increases due to a severe
overload or short circuit.
The programmed maximum power dissipation should have a reasonable margin relative to the maximum power
defined by the SOA chart if the LM5067-2 is used since the FET will be repeatedly stressed during fault restart
cycles. The FET manufacturer should be consulted for guidelines. The PWR pin can be left open if the
application does not require use of the power limit function.
TURN-ON TIME
The output turn-on time depends on whether the LM5067 operates in current limit only, or in both power limit and
current limit, during turn-on.
A) Turn-on with current limit only: If the current limit threshold is less than the current defined by the power
limit threshold at maximum VDS the circuit operates only at the current limit threshold during turn-on. Referring to
Figure 13a, as the drain current reaches ILIM, the gate-to-source voltage is controlled at VGSL to maintain the
current at ILIM. As the output voltage reaches its final value (VDS 0V) the drain current reduces to the value
defined by the load, and the gate is charged to approximately 13V (VGATE). The time for the OUT pin voltage to
transition from zero volts to VSYS is equal to:
where
CLis the load capacitance (4)
For example, if VSYS = -48V, CL= 1000 µF, and ILIM = 1A, tON calculates to 48 ms. The maximum instantaneous
power dissipated in the MOSFET is 48W. This calculation assumes the time from t1 to t2 in Figure 13a is small
compared to tON, and the load does not draw any current until after the output voltage has reached its final value,
and PGD switches high (Figure 11).
Figure 11. No Load Current During Turn-on
If the load draws current during the turn-on sequence (Figure 12), the turn-on time is longer than the above
calculation, and is approximately equal to:

RLis the load resistance and VSYS is the absolute value of the system input voltage (5)
The Fault Timeout Period must be set longer than tON to prevent a fault shutdown before the turn-on
sequence is complete.
Figure 12. Load Draws Current During Turn-On
B) Turn-on with power limit and current limit: The power dissipation limit in Q1 (PFET(LIM)) is defined by the
resistor at the PWR pin, and the current sense resistor RS. See POWER LIMIT THRESHOLD. If the current limit
threshold (ILIM) is higher than the current defined by the power limit threshold at maximum VDS (PFET(LIM)/VSYS)
the circuit operates initially in power limit mode when the VDS of Q1 is high, and then transitions to current limit
mode as the current increases to ILIM as VDS decreases. See Figure 13b. Assuming the load (RL) is not
connected during turn-on, the time for the output voltage to reach its final value is approximately equal to:
(6)
For example, if VSYS = -48V, CL= 1000 µF, ILIM = 1A, and PFET(LIM) = 20W, tON calculates to 68 ms, and the
initial current level (IP) is approximately 0.42A. The Fault Timeout Period must be set longer than tON.
Figure 13. MOSFET Power Up Waveforms
MOSFET SELECTION
It is recommended that the external MOSFET (Q1) selection be based on the following criteria:
The BVDSS rating should be greater than the maximum system voltage (VSYS), plus ringing and transients
which can occur at VSYS when the circuit card, or adjacent cards, are inserted or removed.
The maximum continuous current rating should be based on the current limit threshold (50 mV/RS), not the
maximum load current, since the circuit can operate near the current limit threshold continuously.
The Pulsed Drain Current spec (IDM) must be greater than the current threshold for the circuit breaker function
(100 mV/RS).

The SOA (Safe Operating Area) chart of the device, and the thermal properties, should be used to determine
the maximum power dissipation threshold set by the RPWR resistor. The programmed maximum power
dissipation should have a reasonable margin from the maximum power defined by the FET's SOA chart if the
LM5067-2 is used since the FET will be repeatedly stressed during fault restart cycles. The FET manufacturer
should be consulted for guidelines.
RDS(on) should be sufficiently low that the power dissipation at maximum load current (IL(max)2x RDS(on)) does
not raise its junction temperature above the manufacturer’s recommendation.
If the device chosen for Q1 has a maximum VGS rating less than 13V, an external zener diode must be added
from its gate to source, with the zener voltage less than the maximum VGS rating. The zener diode’s forward
current rating must be at least 110 mA to conduct the GATE pull-down current during startup and in the circuit
breaker mode.
TIMER CAPACITOR, CT
The TIMER pin capacitor (CT) sets the timing for the insertion time delay, fault timeout period, and restart timing
of the LM5067-2.
A) Insertion Delay - Upon applying the system voltage (VSYS) to the circuit, the external MOSFET (Q1) is held
off during the insertion time (t1 in Figure 6) to allow ringing and transients at VSYS to settle. Since each
backplane’s response to a circuit card plug-in is unique, the worst case settling time must be determined for each
application. The insertion time starts when the operating voltage (VCC-VEE) reaches the PORIT threshold, at
which time the internal 6 µA current source charges CTfrom 0V to 4.0V. The required capacitor value is
calculated from:
where
t1 is the desired insertion delay (7)
For example, if the desired insertion delay is 250 ms, CTcalculates to 0.38 µF. At the end of the insertion delay,
CTis quickly discharged by a 1.5 mA current sink.
B) Fault Timeout Period - During turn-on of the output voltage, or upon detection of a fault condition where the
current limit and/or power limit circuits regulate the current through Q1, CTis charged by the fault timer current
source (85 µA). The Fault Timeout Period is the time required for the TIMER pin voltage to reach 4.0V above
VEE, at which time Q1 is switched off. The required capacitor value for the desired Fault Timeout Period tFAULT is
calculated from:
(8)
For example, if the desired Fault Timeout Period is 16 ms, CTcalculates to 0.34 µF. After a fault timeout, if the
LM5067-1 is in use, CTmust be allowed to discharge to <0.3V by the 2.5 µA current sink, after which a power up
sequence can be initiated by external circuitry. See Fault Timer and Restart and Figure 8. If the LM5067-2 is in
use, after the Fault Timeout Period expires a restart sequence begins as described below (Restart Timing).
Since the LM5067 normally operates in power limit and/or current limit during a power up sequence, the Fault
Timeout Period MUST be longer than the time required for the output voltage to reach its final value. See TURN-
ON TIME.
C) Restart Timing If the LM5067-2 is in use, after the Fault Timeout Period described above, CTis discharged
by the 2.5 µA current sink to 1.25V. The TIMER pin then cycles through seven additional charge/discharge
cycles between 1.25V and 4.0V as shown in Figure 9. The restart time ends when the TIMER pin voltage
reaches 0.3V during the final high-to-low ramp. The restart time, after the Fault Timeout Period, is equal to:

For example, if CT= 0.33 µF, tRESTART = 3.1 seconds. At the end of the restart time, Q1 is switched on. If the fault
is still present, the fault timeout and restart sequence repeats. The on-time duty cycle of Q1 is approximately
0.5% in this mode.
UVLO, OVLO
By programming the UVLO and OVLO thresholds the LM5067 enables the series pass device (Q1) when the
input supply voltage (VSYS) is within the desired operational range. If VSYS is below the UVLO threshold, or above
the OVLO threshold, Q1 is switched off, denying power to the load. Hysteresis is provided for each threshold.
NOTE
All voltages are with respect to Vee in the discussions below. Use absolute values in the
equations.
Option A: The configuration shown in Figure 14 requires three resistors (R1-R3) to set the thresholds.
Figure 14. UVLO and OVLO Thresholds Set By R1-R3
The procedure to calculate the resistor values is as follows:
Determine the upper UVLO threshold (VUVH) to enable Q1, and the lower UVLO threshold (VUVL) to disable
Q1.
Determine the upper OVLO threshold (VOVH) to disable Q1.
The lower OVLO threshold (VOVL), to enable Q1, cannot be chosen in advance in this case, but is determined
after the values for R1-R3 are determined. If VOVL must be accurately defined in addition to the other three
thresholds, see Option B below.

SHUTDOWN / ENABLE CONTROL
Figure 17 shows how to use the UVLO/EN pin for remote shutdown and enable control. Taking the UVLO/EN pin
below its 2.5V threshold (with respect to VEE) shuts off the load current. Upon releasing the UVLO/EN pin the
LM5067 switches on the load current with in-rush current and power limiting. In Figure 18 the OVLO pin is used
for remote shutdown and enable control. When the external transistor is off, the OVLO pin is above its 2.5V
threshold (with respect to VEE) and the load current is shut off. Turning on the external transistor allows the
LM5067 to switch on the load current with in-rush current and power limiting.

Pin Pin
POWER GOOD PIN
During initial power up, the Power Good pin (PGD) is high until the operating voltage (VCC VEE) increases
above 2V. PGD then switches low, remaining low as the system voltage and the operating voltage increase.
After Q1 is switched on, when the voltage at the OUT pin is within 1.23V of the SENSE pin (Q1’s VDS <1.23V),
PGD switches high indicating the output voltage is at, or nearly at, its final value. Any of the following situations
will cause PGD to switch low within 10 µs:
The VDS of Q1 increases above 2.5V.
The system input voltage decreases below the UVLO level.
The system input voltage increase above the OVLO level.
The TIMER pin increases to 4V due to a fault condition.
A pull-up resistor is required at PGD as shown in Figure 19. The pull-up voltage (VPGD) can be as high as 80V
above VEE, with transient capability to 100V, and can be higher or lower than the system ground.
Figure 19. Power Good Output
If a delay is required at PGD, suggested circuits are shown in Figure 20.InFigure 20a, capacitor CPG adds delay
to the rising edge, but not to the falling edge. In Figure 20b, the rising edge is delayed by RPG1 + RPG2 and CPG,
while the falling edge is delayed a lesser amount by RPG2 and CPG. Adding a diode across RPG2.Figure 20c
allows for equal delays at the two edges, or a short delay at the rising edge and a long delay at the falling edge.

Figure 20. Adding Delay to the Power Good Output Pin
Design-in Procedure
The recommended design-in procedure for the LM5067 is as follows:
Determine the minimum and maximum system voltages (VEE). Select the input resistor (RIN) to provide at
least 2 mA into the VCC pin at the minimum system voltage.The resistor’s power rating must be suitable for
its power dissipation at maximum system voltage ((VSYS 13V)2/RIN).
Determine the current limit threshold (ILIM). This threshold must be higher than the normal maximum load
current, allowing for tolerances in the current sense resistor value and the LM5067 Current Limit threshold
voltage. Use equation 1 to determine the value for RS.
Determine the maximum allowable power dissipation for the series pass FET (Q1), using the device’s SOA
information. Use equation 2 to determine the value for RPWR.
Determine the value for the timing capacitor at the TIMER pin (CT) using equation 3. The fault timeout
period (tFAULT) must be longer than the circuit’s turn-on-time. The turn-on time can be estimated using
the equations in the Turn-on Time section of this data sheet, but should be verified experimentally. Allow for
tolerances in the values of the external capacitors, sense resistor, and the LM5067 Electrical Characteristics
for the TIMER pin, current limit and power limt. Review the resulting insertion time, and the restart timing if
the LM5067-2 is used.
Choose option A, B, C, or D from the UVLO, OVLO section of the Application Information for setting the
UVLO and OVLO thresholds and hysteresis. Use the procedure in the appropriate option to determine the
resistor values at the UVLO and OVLO pins.
Choose the appropriate voltage, and pull-up resistor, for the Power Good output.
PC Board Guidelines
The following guidelines should be followed when designing the PC board for the LM5067:
Place the LM5067 close to the board’s input connector to minimize trace inductance from the connector to the
FET.
Place RIN and CIN close to the VCC and VEE pins to keep transients below the Absolute Maximum rating of
the LM5067. Transients of several volts can easily occur when the load current is shut off.
The sense resistor (RS) should be close to the LM5067, and connected to it using the Kelvin techniques
shown in Figure 10.
The high current path from the board’s input to the load, and the return path (via Q1), should be parallel and
close to each other wherever possible to minimize loop inductance.
The VEE connection for the various components around the LM5067 should be connected directly to each
other, and to the LM5067’s VEE pin, and then connected to the system VEE at one point. Do not connect the
various components to each other through the high current VEE track.
Provide adequate heat sinking for the series pass device (Q1) to help reduce thermal stresses during turn-on
and turn-off.
The board’s edge connector can be designed to shut off the LM5067 as the board is removed, before the
supply voltage is disconnected from the LM5067. In Figure 21 the voltage at the UVLO/EN pin goes to VEE
before VSYS is removed from the LM5067 due to the shorter edge connector pin. When the board is inserted
into the edge connector, the system voltage is applied to the LM5067’s VEE and VCC pins before voltage is
applied to the UVLO/EN pin.

If power dissipation within the LM5067 is high, an exposed copper pad should be provided beneath the
package, and that pad should be connected to exposed copper on the board’s other side with as many vias
as possible. See Thermal Considerations.
Figure 21. Suggested Board Connector Design
Thermal Considerations
The LM5067 should be operated so that its junction temperature does not exceed 125°C. The junction
temperature is equal to:
TJ= TA+ (RθJA x PD)
where
TAis the ambient temperature
RθJA is the thermal resistance of the LM5067 (17)
PDis the power dissipated within the LM5067, calculated from:
PD= 13V x ICC
where
ICC is the current into the VCC pin (the current through the RIN resistor). (18)
Values for RθJA and RθJC are in Electrical Characteristics.
System Considerations
1. Continued proper operation of the LM5067 hot swap circuit requires capacitance be present on the supply
side of the connector into which the hot swap circuit is plugged in, as depicted in Figure 5. The capacitor in
the “Live Backplane” section is necessary to absorb the transient generated whenever the hot swap circuit
shuts off the load current. If the capacitance is not present, inductance in the supply lines will generate a
voltage transient at shut-off which can exceed the absolute maximum rating of the LM5067, resulting in its
destruction.
2. If the load powered via the LM5067 hot swap circuit has inductive characteristics, a diode is required across
the LM5067’s output to provide a recirculating path for the load’s current. Adding the diode prevents possible
damage to the LM5067 as the OUT pin will be taken above ground by the inductive load at shutoff. See
Figure 22.
