LTC4232 Datasheet 5A Integrated Hot Swap Controller

Manufacturer: Linear Technology (now Analog Devices)

General Description

The LTC®4232 is an integrated solution for Hot Swap applications that allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a live backplane.

The part integrates a Hot Swap controller, power MOSFET and current sense resistor in a single package for small form factor applications.

The LTC4232 provides separate inrush current control and a 10% accurate 5A current limit with foldback current limiting.
