Feb 28, 2019 at 12:37 | comment | added | Marko Buršič | Ideal diode circuits for example LTC4358 do always apply such voltage on gate, so that there is a minimal yet operational/detectable forward voltage drop. It works as variable resistor, if the voltage tends to be smaller or even negative it forces the MOSFET to reach high resistance and stop conducting. | |
Feb 28, 2019 at 12:07 | comment | added | Jeroen | just wondering.... suppose the external power is connected AND solar panel is generating a minumum amount of power and gets to 3 volts, it opens the diode. Will the higher voltage on "OUT" pin of the diode close the ideal diode preventing feedback to the solar panel? | |
