LTC4221 Dual Hot Swap Controller/ Power Sequencer with Dual Speed, Dual Level Fault Protection FEATURES DESCRIPTIO TM Allows Safe Board Insertion and Removal from a The LTC 4221 is a 2-channel Hot Swap controller that Live Backplane allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a Configurable Power Supply Sequencing live backplane. Using two independent high side gate Soft-Start with Current Foldback Limits Inrush drivers to control two external N-channel pass transistors, Current the output voltages can be ramped up with current foldback No External Gate Capacitor Required to limit the inrush current during the start-up period. No Adjustable Dual Level Circuit Breaker Protection external compensation capacitors are required at the Controls Supply Voltages from 1V to 13.5V GATE pins. The two channels can be configured to ramp up Independent N-Channel MOSFET High Side Drivers and down separately or simultaneously for supply volt- FB Pin Monitors V for Overvoltage Protection ages ranging from 2.7V to 13.5V and 1V to 13.5V for OUT Latch Off or Automatic Retry on Current Fault channels 1 and 2 respectively. FAULT and PWRGD Outputs Each channel has two current limit comparators that Narrow 16-Pin SSOP Package provide dual level and dual speed overcurrent circuit U breaker protection after the start-up period. If any current APPLICATIO S sense voltage exceeds 100mV for 1s or 25mV for the Electronic Circuit Breaker timeout delay (set by the C at the FILTER pin), then FILTER Power Supply Sequencing the FAULT latch is set and both GATE pins are pulled low. Live Board Insertion and Removal The FB pins monitor the respective channel output volt- Industrial High Side Switch/Circuit Breaker ages and provide the inputs for the PWRGD comparators , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation. as well as overvoltage protection.
