General Description
The MAX5921/MAX5939 hot-swap controllers allow a cir-
cuit card to be safely hot plugged into a live backplane.
The MAX5921/MAX5939 operate from -20V to -80V and
are well suited for -48V power systems. These devices
are pin compatible with both the LT1640 and LT4250 and
provide improved features over these devices.
The MAX5921/MAX5939 provide a controlled turn-on to
circuit cards preventing damage to board connectors,
board components, and preventing glitches on the
power-supply rail. The MAX5921/MAX5939 provide
undervoltage, overvoltage, and overcurrent protection.
These devices ensure that the input voltage is stable
and within tolerance before applying power to the load.
Both the MAX5921 and MAX5939 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 MAX5921/MAX5939 protect against input
voltage steps by limiting the load current to a safe level
without turning off power to the load.
The device features an open-drain power-good status
output, PWRGD or PWRGD for enabling downstream
converters (see Selector Guide). A built-in thermal shut-
down feature is also included to protect the external
MOSFET in case of overheating. The MAX5939 features
a latched fault output. The MAX5921 contains built-in
autoretry circuitry after a fault condition.
The MAX5921/MAX5939 are available in an 8-pin SO
package and operate in the extended -40°C to +85°C
temperature range.

Note 3: Minimum duration of GATE pulldown following a circuit breaker fault. The MAX5921_ automatically restarts after a circuit
breaker fault. The MAX5939_ is latched off and can be reset by toggling UV low. The GATE pulldown does not release until
