voltage suppressor,
Z1, and snubber network, R

and
C
X
, connected at SENSEP pin are highly recommended
to protect the 5V supply system from ringing and voltage
spikes during a fault condition. The RC network, R
Y
and
C

, connected at the V
CC
pin, allows the LTC4216 bias
supply to ride out supply glitches during a fault condition
or adjacent board short.
Auto-Retry after a Fault
As shown in Figure 18, the LTC4216 can be configured to
automatically retry after a fault condition by connecting
both the FAULT and ON pins together with an RC network.
The network has a pull-up resistor, R
AUTO
, tied to the load
supply (V
IN
) and an external capacitor, C
AUTO
, connected
to ground. The auto-retry circuit will attempt to restart
the LTC4216 after a circuit breaker trip, as shown in the
timing diagram of Figure 19. In addition to the cooling
cycle provided by the TIMER period during auto-retry
sequence, the RC time constant for the ON pin voltage to
reach 0.8V provides additional turn-off time to prevent
the external MOSFET from overheating. The auto-retry
duty cycle is
given by:
