DESCRIPTIO
The LT®4220 16-pin dual voltage Hot Swap controller
allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a
live backplane. The device operates with any combination
of 2.7V to 16.5V and –2.7V to –16.5V supplies. Using two
external N-channel pass transistors, the board supply
voltages can be ramped up at an adjustable rate. A select-
able tracking mode allows dual supply tracking control for
ramping the positive and negative supplies together.
The LT4220 features foldback current limit and latches off
both gates if either supply remains in current limit longer
than an adjustable time period. The IC can be configured
for automatic restart after a delay set by the same timer.
A power good signal indicates when the output voltages
monitored by the two FB comparators are within tolerance,
and the gate drive signals are at their full on voltage.
The LT4220 is available in a 16-lead narrow SSOP
package.
