Negative Power Supply Control
The LT
®
4250L/LT4250H are 8-pin, negative 48V 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 tran-
sistor is turned off if the input voltage is less than the
programmable undervoltage threshold or greater than
the overvoltage threshold. A programmable current limit
protects the system against shorts. After a 500μs timeout
the current limit activates the electronic circuit breaker.
The PWRGD (LT4250L) or PWRGD (LT4250H) signal can
be used to directly enable a power module. The LT4250L
is designed for modules with a low enable input and the
LT4250H for modules with a high enable input.
The LT4250L/LT4250H are available in 8-pin PDIP and
SO packages
