Description
The ADM1178 is an integrated hot swap controller and current sense amplifier that offers digital current and voltage monitoring via an on-chip, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), communicated through an I2C interface.
Features
- Allows safe board insertion and removal from a live backplane Controls supply voltages from 3.15 V to 16.5 V Precision current sense amplifier Precision voltage input 12-bit ADC for current and voltage readback Charge pumped gate drive for external N-channel FET Adjustable analog current limit with circuit breaker ±3% accurate hot swap current limit level Fast response limits peak fault current Automatic retry or latch-off on current fault Programmable hot swap timing via TIMER pin Active-high O.
