ADM1064
POWERING THE ADM1064
The ADM1064 is powered from the highest voltage input on either
the positive-only supply inputs (VPx) or the high voltage supply
input (VH). This technique offers improved redundancy because
the device is not dependent on any particular voltage rail to keep
it operational. The same pins are used for supply fault detection
(see the Supply Supervision section). A VDD arbitrator on the device
chooses which supply to use. The arbitrator can be considered an
OR’ing of five low dropout regulators (LDOs) together. A supply
comparator chooses the highest input to provide the on-chip supply.
There is minimal switching loss with this architecture (~0.2 V),
resulting in the ability to power the ADM1064 from a supply as low
as 3.0 V. Note that the supply on the VXx pins cannot be used to
power the device.
An external capacitor to GND is required to decouple the on-chip
supply from noise. This capacitor should be connected to the
VDDCAP pin, as shown in Figure 18. The capacitor has another
use during brownouts (momentary loss of power). Under these
conditions, when the input supply (VPx or VH) dips transiently
below VDD, the synchronous rectifier switch immediately turns
off so that it does not pull VDD down. The VDD capacitor can
then act as a reservoir to keep the device active until the next
highest supply takes over the powering of the device. A 10 μF
capacitor is recommended for this reservoir/decoupling function.
The VH input pin can accommodate supplies up to 14.4 V, which
allows the ADM1064 to be powered using a 12 V backplane
supply. In cases where this 12 V supply is hot swapped, it is
recommended that the ADM1064 not be connected directly to
the supply. Suitable precautions, such as the use of a hot swap
controller, should be taken to protect the device from transients
that could cause damage during hot swap events.
Data Sheet
When two or more supplies are within 100 mV of each other,
the supply that first takes control of VDD keeps control. For
example, if VP1 is connected to a 3.3 V supply, VDD powers up
to approximately 3.1 V through VP1. If VP2 is then connected
to another 3.3 V supply, VP1 still powers the device, unless VP2
goes 100 mV higher than VP1.

SLEW RATE CONSIDERATION
When the ambient temperature of operation is less than
approximately −20°C, and in the event of a power loss where all
supply inputs fail for less than a few hundreds of milliseconds
(for example, due to a system supply brownout), it is recommended
that the supply voltage recover with a ramp rate of at least
1.5 V/ms or less than 0.5 V/ms.
