Microchip Technology MIC2085-JBQS

General Description

The MIC2085 and MIC2086 are single channel positive voltage hot swap controllers designed to allow the safe insertion of boards into live system backplanes. The MIC2085 and MIC2086 are available in 16-pin and 20-pin QSOP packages, respectively. Using a few external components and by controlling the gate drive of an external N-Channel MOSFET device, the MIC2085/86 provide inrush current limiting and output voltage slew rate control in harsh, critical power supply environments.
