MAX5921/MAX5939
-48V Hot-Swap Controllers with External RSENSE and High Gate Pulldown Current
General Description
The MAX5921/MAX5939 hot-swap controllers allow a circuit card to be safely hot plugged into a live backplane. The MAX5921/MAX5939 operate from -20V to -80V and are well suited for -48V power systems. These devices are pin compatible with both the LT1640 and LT4250 and provide improved features over these devices.
The MAX5921/MAX5939 provide a controlled turn-on to circuit cards preventing damage to board connectors, board components, and preventing glitches on the power-supply rail. The MAX5921/MAX5939 provide undervoltage, overvoltage, and overcurrent protection.
