AP74701Q Ideal Diode Controller

Diodes AP74701Q ideal diode controller with VDS clamp removes the need for external TVS in automotive RVP circuits

Image of Diodes AP74701Q Ideal Diode ControllerThe Diodes automotive-compliant* AP74701Q provides a simple, cost effective, and fast response solution for automotive reverse voltage protection (RVP) circuits without the need for an external TVS diode.

With its wide 3.2 V to 65 V operating voltage range, coupled with a -33 V reverse voltage clamp, the device provides a small footprint solution to both 12 V and 24 V battery systems including enhanced cold crank conditions.

The AP74701Q ideal diode controller actively drives an external N-channel MOSFET to achieve a 20 mV voltage drop, thereby providing a highly efficient reverse voltage-protection solution for automotive systems.

Its optimized regulation scheme ensures immediate reverse current blocking (<0.75 µs), meeting stringent output voltage holdup requirements during transient events like ISO 7637 pulse testing.

The AP74701Q has a low 1 µA shutdown current, operates across the -40°C to +125°C ambient temperature range, and is available in the SOT28 package.
