LT4200
50A Hot Swap E-Fuse with
Guaranteed SOA
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LT®4200 is an integrated solution for hot swap
applications that allows a board to be safely inserted and
removed from a live backplane. The part integrates a hot
swap controller, power MOSFET and current sense resistor
into a single package for small form-factor applications.
The MOSFET safe operating area is production tested and
guaranteed for the stresses in hot swap applications.

The LT4200 allows 50A of continuous operation at up to
85°C ambient temperature. It provides separate inrush
current control and a 12% accurate 57A current limit with
output dependent foldback. The current limit threshold
can be adjusted dynamically using the ISET pin. Additional
features include a current monitor output for ground
referenced current sensing and a MOSFET temperature
monitor output. Thermal limit, overvoltage, undervoltage
and power good monitoring are also provided.
