4254fb
The LT
®
4254 is a high voltage Hot Swap
TM
controller that
allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a
live backplane. An internal driver controls the high side
N-channel MOSFET gate for supply voltages ranging from
10.8V to 36V. The part features an open-circuit detect
(OPEN) output that indicates abnormally low load current
conditions.
The LT4254 features an adjustable analog foldback cur-
rent limit. If the supply remains in current limit for more
than a programmable time, the N-channel MOSFET shuts
off, the PWRGD output goes low and the LT4254 either
automatically restarts after a time-out delay or latches off
until the UV pin is cycled low. The RETRY pin sets whether
the part will automatically restart after an overcurrent fault
or if it will latch off until the UV pin is cycled low.
The PWRGD output indicates when the output voltage
rises above a programmed level. An external resistor
string from V
CC
provides programmable undervoltage and
overvoltage protection.

SYMBOL PARAMETER CONDITIONS MIN TYP MAX UNITS
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: An internal clamp limits the GATE pin to a maximum of 11V above
V
CC
(under normal operating conditions). Driving this pin to a voltage
beyond the clamp voltage may damage the part.
