DESCRIPTIO
The LT®4250L/LT4250H are 8-pin, negative 48V Hot SwapTM
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 program-
mable undervoltage threshold or greater than the over-
voltage 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.
