LTC4282
Overview
The LTC®4282 hot swap controller allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a live backplane. Using one or more external N-channel pass transistors, board supply voltage and inrush current are ramped up at an adjustable rate.
- Allows Safe Board Insertion Into Live Backplane
- 12-/16-Bit ADC with ±0.7% Total Unadjusted Error
- Monitors Current, Voltage, Power and Energy
- Controls Two Parallel N-Channel MOSFETs for SOA Sharing in High Current Applications
- Internal EEPROM for Nonvolatile Configuration
- Wide Operating Voltage Range: 2.9V to 33V
- I2C/SMBus Digital Interface (Coexists with PMBus Devices)
- 12V Gate Drive for Lower MOSFET RDS(ON)
- Programmable Current Limit with 2% Accuracy
- MOSFET Power Limiting with Current Foldback
