General Description
The MAX5920A/MAX5920B are hot-swap controllers that
allow a circuit card to be safely hot plugged into a live
backplane. The MAX5920A/MAX5920B operate from
-20V to -80V and are well-suited for -48V power systems.
These devices are pin and function compatible with the
LT4250 and pin compatible with the LT1640.
The MAX5920A/MAX5920B provide a controlled turn-on
to circuit cards preventing glitches on the power-supply
rail and damage to board connectors and components.
The MAX5920A/MAX5920B provide undervoltage, over-
voltage, and overcurrent protection. These devices
ensure the input voltage is stable and within tolerance
before applying power to the load.
Both the MAX5920A and MAX5920B protect a system
against overcurrent and short-circuit conditions by turn-
ing off the external MOSFET in the event of a fault con-
dition. The MAX5920A/MAX5920B also provide
protection against input voltage steps. During an input
voltage step, the MAX5920A/MAX5920B limit the cur-
rent drawn by the load to a safe level without turning off
power to the load.
Both devices feature an open-drain power-good status
output (PWRGD for the MAX5920A or PWRGD for the
MAX5920B) that can be used to enable downstream
converters. A built-in thermal-shutdown feature is also
included to protect the external MOSFET in case of
overheating.
The MAX5920A/MAX5920B are available in an 8-pin SO
package. Both devices are specified for the extended
-40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
