General Description

The MIC2586 and MIC2586R are single-channel positive voltage hot swap controllers/sequencers designed to provide safe insertion and removal of boards for systems that require live (always-powered) backplanes. These devices use few external components and act as controllers for external N-channel power MOSFET devices to provide inrush current control and output voltage slew rate control. Overcurrent fault protection is provided via programmable analog foldback current limit circuitry equipped with a programmable overcurrent filter.

Features

• Operates from +10V to +80V with 100V ABS MAX operation

• Industrial temperature specifications at VCC = +24V and VCC = +48V

• Programmable current limit with analog foldback

• Active current regulation minimizes inrush current

• Electronic circuit breaker for overcurrent fault protection
