DESCRIPTION
The
LTC
®
4210
is a 6-pin SOT-23 hot swap controller that
allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a
live backplane. An internal high side switch driver controls
the GATE of an external N-channel MOSFET for a supply
voltage ranging from 2.7V to 16.5V. The LTC4210 provides
the initial timing cycle and allows the GATE to be ramped
up at an adjustable rate.
The LTC4210 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.
This part is available in two options: the LTC4210-1 for
automatic retry on overcurrent fault and the LTC4210-2
for latch off on an overcurrent fault.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device
pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground unless otherwise
specified.
Note 3:
An internal Zener on the GATE pin clamps the charge pump
voltage to a typical maximum voltage of 26V. External overdrive of the
GATE pin beyond the internal Zener voltage may damage the device.
Without a limiting resistor, the GATE capacitance must be <0.15µF at
maximum V
CC
. If a lower GATE pin clamp voltage is desired, an external
Zener diode may be used.
