2.7V to 16.5V Hot Swap Controller
with Tracking or Slew Rate Control
Preliminary Technical Data
ADM1173
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM1173 is a Hot Swap controller that allows a board to
be safely inserted and removed from a live backplane.
An internal charge pumped driver controls the GATE of an
external high side N-channel FET for a supply voltage ranging
from 2.7V to 16.5V. The ADM1173 provides the initial timing
cycle and allows the GATE to be ramped up at an adjustable
rate. The Slew rate of the Output is controlled a capacitor or
supply on the SLEW pin.
The ADM1173 features a fast current limit loop providing
active current limiting together with a circuit breaker timer.
The signal at the ON pin turns the part on and off and is also
used for the reset function.
Allows Safe Board Insertion and Removal from a Live
Backplane
Controls Supply Voltages from 2.7 V to 16.5V
Adjustable Analog Current Limit with Circuit Breaker
Fast Response Limits Peak Fault Current
Automatic Retry or Latch-Off On Current Fault
Adjustable Voltage Slew Rate Control
Charge Pumped Gate Drive for External N-FET Switch
TIMER pin allows control over timing functions
Undervoltage Lockout
8-pin TSOT Package
A capacitor connected to the TIMER pin gives the user control
over the duty cycle of the PWM retry ratio during current fault.
This part is available in two options: the ADM1173-1 will
automatic retry for over-current fault and the ADM1173-2 will
latch-off for an over-current fault.
APPLICATIONS
Hot Swap Board Insertion – Line Cards, Raid systems
Electronic Circuit Breaker
Industrial High Side Switch/Circuit Breaker
The ADM1173 is packaged in an 8-lead TSOT package.
