safely inserted and removed from a live backplane. Using
an external N-channel pass transistor, board supply voltage
and inrush current are ramped up at an adjustable rate.
An I

C interface and onboard ADC allows for monitoring
of board current, voltage, power, energy and fault status.
The device features analog foldback current limiting to
limit the MOSFET power to a constant value. A wide input
voltage operating range comfortably allows applications
from 2.9V to 33V.
The LTC4281 is well suited to high power applications
because the precise monitoring capability and accurate
current limiting reduce the extremes in which both loads
and power supplies must safely operate. Non-volatile
configuration allows for flexibility in the autonomous
generation of alerts and response to faults.

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 pins are positive. All voltages are referenced to
GND unless otherwise specified.
Note 3:
An internal clamp limits the GATE pin to a minimum of 11V above
SOURCE. Driving this pin to voltages beyond the clamp may damage the
device.
Note 4:
Guaranteed by design and not subject to test.
Note 5:
TUE is the maximum ADC error for any code, given as a
percentage of full scale.
Note 6:
UV, OV and FB internal thresholds are given as a percent
difference from the configured operating voltage.
Note 7:
EEPROM endurance and retention are guaranteed by design,
characterization and correlation with statistical process controls.
Note 8:
EEPROM endurance and retention will be degraded when T
