Product Summary

The LTC4252A positive voltage Hot SwapTM controller allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a live AMC or MicroTCA backplane. It controls the main 12V supply with an external N-channel MOSFET and the 3.3V auxiliary supply with an integrated switch. The 12V output ramp rate of LTC4252A is adjustable and includes inrush current limiting. The 12V output is also protected against short circuit faults with a fast acting current limit and a 5% accurate timed circuit breaker. The 3.3V output includes both soft start and overcurrent protection. The applications of the LTC4252A include Advanced Mezzanine Card, MicroTCA Systems, Workstations and Server I/O, Telecom Networks.
