controllers allow a board to be safely inserted and removed
from a live backplane. Using an external N-channel pass
transistor, the board supply voltage can be ramped at an
adjustable rate. The devices feature independently adjust-
able inrush current and overcurrent limits to minimize
stresses on the pass transistor during start-up, input
step and output short conditions. The LTC4261 defaults
to latch-off while the LTC4261-2 defaults to auto-retry on
overcurrent faults.
An I
2
C interface and onboard 10-bit ADC allow monitoring
of board current, voltage and fault status. A single-wire
broadcast mode is available to simplify the interface by
eliminating two optoisolators.
The controllers have additional features to interrupt the
host when a fault has occurred, notify when output power
is good, detect insertion of a board and turn off the pass
transistor if an external supply monitor fails to indicate
power good within a timeout period.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
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
device GND (V
EE
) unless otherwise specified.
Note 3:
An internal shunt regulator limits the V
IN
pin to a minimum of
10.65V. Driving this pin to voltages beyond 10.65V may damage the part.
The pin can be safely tied to higher voltages through a resistor that limits
the current below 50mA.
Note 4:
An internal clamp limits the DRAIN pin to a minimum of 3.5V.
Driving this pin to voltages beyond the clamp may damage the part. The
pin can be safely tied to higher voltages through a resistor that limits the
