Cool-ORing® PI2007 Product Description
The Cool-ORing PI2007 with an external industry
standard 25V N-channel MOSFET provides a complete
Active ORing solution designed for use in 12V Bus (10V to
14V) redundant power system architectures. The PI2007
controller with an N-channel MOSFET enables extremely
low power loss with fast dynamic response to fault
conditions, critical for high availability systems.
The PI2007 controller with a low R
DS(on)
N-channel
MOSFET provides very high efficiency and low power loss
during steady state operation. The PI2007 controller
provides an active low fault flag output to the system
during excessive forward current or reverse current, or
under VC under voltage condition.
Figure 1 shows a photo of the PI2007-EVAL2 evaluation
board, with two PI2007 controllers and two N-channel
MOSFET used to form the two Active ORing channels. The
board is built with two identical Active ORing circuits with
options and features that enable the user to fully explore
the capabilities of the PI2007 Active ORing controller.
* VL1, VL2 voltage can be higher than 5.5V, but R5 and R6
values have to be increased to accommodate the LEDs

Power source Input #1 or bus input designed to accommodate up to 15A continuous current.
Power source Input #2 or bus input designed to accommodate up to 15A continuous current.
PI2007 (U1) Fault pin: Monitors U1 fault conditions.
PI2007 (U2) Fault pin: Monitors U2 fault conditions.
PI2007 (U1) VC input: Leave this pin unconnected unless an alternative controller bias voltage.
PI2007 (U2) VC input: Leave this pin unconnected unless an alternative controller bias voltage.
Output: Q1 and Q2 MOSFETs drain connection, connect to the load high side.
Return Connection: Three Rtn connections are available and are connected to a common point, the Ground plane. Input
supplies Vin1, Vin2, and the output load at Vout should all be connected to their respective local Rtn connection.
