MAX5917
MAX5917 is +65V Simple Swapper Hot-Swap Switches manufactured by Maxim Integrated.
- Part of the MAX5910 comparator family.
- Part of the MAX5910 comparator family.
Description
The MAX5910/MAX5917 are fully integrated hot-swap switches for positive supply rails. These devices allow the safe insertion and removal of circuit cards into live backplanes or ports without causing glitches on the backplane power-supply rail. They also monitor various circuit parameters and disconnect the load if a fault condition occurs, alerting the host with a logic-level IFAULT output. The MAX5910/MAX5917 operate over a +10V to +65V input voltage range. They are designed to permit hot plugging of an internet appliance such as an IP phone but are not limited to that application.
During startup, an internal power FET regulates the current between the backplane power source and the load to 280m A for the MAX5910, 567m A for the MAX5917A, and 420m A for the MAX5917B. After startup, the FET is fully enhanced to reduce its on-resistance. To ensure robust operation, the MAX5910/MAX5917...
