LTC4211 Overview
The LTC®4211 is a hot swap controller that allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a live backplane. An internal high side switch driver controls the gate of an external N-channel MOSFET for supply voltages ranging from 2.5V to 16.5V. The LTC4211 provides soft-start and inrush current limiting during the start-up period which has a programmable duration.
LTC4211 Applications
- 50mV and activates in 20µs (or is programmed by an external filter capacitor, MS only). The fast parator trips at VCC
- 150mV and typically responds in 300ns
