LT1640A

PRODUCTION

Negative Voltage Hot Swap Controller

Viewing:

Overview

  • Allows Safe Board Insertion and Removal from a Live -48V Backplane
  • Operates from -10V to -80V
  • Programmable Inrush Current
  • Allows 50mA of Reverse Drain Pin Current
  • Programmable Electronic Circuit Breaker
  • Programmable Overvoltage Protection
  • Programmable Undervoltage Lockout
  • Power Good Control Output

The LT1640AL/LT1640AH are 8-pin, negative voltage Hot Swap controllers that allow a board to be safely inserted and removed from a live backplane. Inrush current is limited to a programmable value by controlling the gate voltage of an external N-channel pass transistor. The pass transistor is turned off if the input voltage is less than the programmable undervoltage threshold or greater than the overvoltage threshold. A programmable electronic circuit breaker protects the system against shorts. The PWRGD (LT1640AL) or PWRGD (LT1640AH) signal can be used to directly enable a power module. The LT1640AL is designed for modules with a low enable input and the LT1640AH for modules with a high enable input.

The LT1640AL/LT1640AH are available in 8-pin PDIP and SO packages.
