ISL6161, Dual Power Distribution Controller

DATASHEET ISL6161 Dual Power Distribution Controller The ISL6161 is a hot swap dual supply power distribution controller that can be used in PCI Express (PCIe) applications.

Two external N-channel MOSFETs are driven to distribute and control power while providing load fault isolation.

At turn-on, the gate of each external N-channel MOSFET is charged with a 10µA current source.

Capacitors on each gate create a programmable ramp (soft turn-on) to control in-rush currents, as Figure 1 shows.
