Description
Demonstration circuit 2027A showcases the
surge stopper with ideal diode in a 12V, 1A application.
DC inputs of up to 80V and transients to 250V are limited
to just 28.7V at the output. Sagging and reverse-polarity
inputs of up to –24V are isolated from the output by a
reverse-blocking MOSFET configured as an ideal diode.
Further, the output is protected against backfeeding. The
output may be driven –20V to +30V without circuit damage
or backfeeding into the input.
A 4.7μF timer capacitor and robust forward MOSFET
permit the load to operate through ISO-7637-2 load dump

DANGER! HIGH VOLTAGE TESTING SHOULD BE
PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY.
As a safety precaution at least two people
should be present during high voltage testing.
Board Layout
DC2027A is a 2-layer board. There are planes for input,
output and ground; these are replicated on each layer. The
93mil input and output connection turrets are not swaged
and may be removed for attachment of up to 12 AWG wire.
Banana jacks facilitate bench testing. There are exposed
conductors on the bottom of the board, and any banana

tions cause the LTC4364 to turn off after a timer delay.
The LTC4364-1 (DC2027A-A) latches off and is reset
by pulling SHDN low for at least 100μs. The LTC4364-2
(DC2027A-B) automatically retries after a three minute
cool down delay. Start-up and retry are inhibited in the
presence of an input overvoltage.

present), D3, M1, RSNUB and CSNUB. These components
are chosen for wide pad spacing, pulse power capability
and voltage stand off, but ultimately limit the maximum
transient input voltage to ≈250V. The time spent above
80V is limited by the pulse power capability of R4.
