SMH4812
Preliminary
DESCRIPTION
The SMH4812 is designed to control hot swapping of plug-
in cards operating from a single supply, which can have an
output range from 20V to 500V. The SMH4812 hot-swap
controller provides under-voltage and over-voltage moni-
toring of the host power supply, it drives an external power
MOSFET switch that connects the supply to the load, and
it protects against over-current conditions that might dis-
rupt the host supply. When the input and output voltages
to the SMH4812 controller are within specification it pro-
vides a Power Good logic output that may be used to
enable a DC-DC converter. Additional features of the
device include: temperature sense or master enable
input, 2.5V and 5V reference outputs for expanding moni-
tor functions, two Pin-Detect enable inputs for fault protec-
tion, and duty-cycle or latched over-current protection
modes. All of these features can be programmed by the
factory according to the user's requirements.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
DRAIN SENSE (1)
The DRAIN SENSE input monitors the voltage at the drain
of the external power MOSFET switch with respect to V
SS
.
An internal 10µA source pulls the DRAIN SENSE signal
towards the 5V reference level. DRAIN SENSE must be
held below 2.5V to enable the PG outputs.
EN/TS (3)
The Enable/Temperature Sense input is the master en-
able input. If EN/TS is less than 2.5V, VGATE will be
disabled. This pin has an internal 200kW pull-up to 5V.
PD1#, PD2# (4, 5)
These are logic level active low inputs that can optionally
be employed to enable VGATE and the PG outputs when
they are at V
SS
. These pins each have an internal 50kW
pull-up to 5V.
CBSENSE (7)
The circuit breaker sense input is used to detect over-
current conditions across an external, low value sense
resistor (R
S
) tied in series with the Power MOSFET. A
voltage drop of greater than 50mV across the resistor for
longer than t
CBD
will trip the circuit breaker. A program-
mable Quick-Trip sense point is also available.
UV (9)
The UV pin is used as an under-voltage supply monitor,
typically in conjunction with an external resistor ladder.
VGATE will be disabled if UV is less than 2.5V. Program-
mable internal hysteresis is available on the UV input,
adjustable in increments of 62.5mV. Also available is a
filter delay on the UV input.
OV (10)
The OV pin is used as an over-voltage supply monitor,
typically in conjunction with an external resistor ladder.
VGATE will be disabled if OV is greater than 2.5V. A filter
delay is available on the OV input.
VGATE (2)
The VGATE output activates an external power MOSFET
switch. This signal supplies a constant current output
(100µA typical), which allows easy adjustment of the
MOSFET turn on slew rate.
FAULT# (6)
FAULT# is an open-drain, active-low output that indicates
the fault status of the device.
5VREF (11)
This is a precision 5V output reference voltage that may be
used to expand the logic input functions on the SMH4812.
The reference output is with respect to V
SS
.
2.5VREF (12)
This is a precision 2.5V output reference voltage that may
be used to expand the logic input functions on the
SMH4812. The reference output is with respect to V
SS
.
FS# (13)
The Forced Shutdown (FS#) pin is an active low input that
causes VGATE and PG outputs to be shut down at any
time after an internal hold-off timer has expired. The hold-
off timer allows supervisory circuits on the secondary side
(which are not powered up initially) to control shut down of
the SMH4812 via an opto-isolator. This input has no pull-
up resistor.

Preliminary
ENPG (14)
The ENPG input controls the PG# output. When ENPG is
pulled low the PG# output is immediately placed in a high
impedance state. If ENPG is driven high then the PG#
output will immediately be driven low.
PG# (15)
PG# is an open-drain, active-low output with no internal
pull-up resistor. It can be used to switch a load or enable
a DC/DC converter. PG# is enabled immediately after
VGATE reaches V
DD
– V
GT
and the DRAIN SENSE
voltage is less than 2.5V. Voltage on these pins cannot
exceed 12V, as referenced to V
SS.
V
DD
(16)
V
DD
is the positive supply connection. An internal shunt
regulator connected between V
DD
and V
SS
develops ap-
proximately 12V that supplies the SMH4812. A resistor
must be placed in series with the V
DD
pin to limit the
regulator current (RD in the application illustrations).
V
SS
(8)
V
SS
is connected to the negative side of the supply.
