LTC4281 Datasheet Hot Swap Controller

Manufacturer: Analog Devices

General Description

The LTC®4281 hot swap controller allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a live backplane.

Using an external N-channel pass transistor, board supply voltage and inrush current are ramped up at an adjustable rate.

An I2C interface and onboard ADC allows for monitoring of board current, voltage, power, energy and fault status.
