Microchip Technology MIC2595-1YM

General Description

The MIC2589 and MIC2595 are single-channel, negative voltage hot swap controllers designed to address the need for safe insertion and removal of circuit boards into “live” system backplanes, while using few external components. The MIC2589/MIC2589R and the MIC2595/MIC2595R are each available in 14-pin SOIC packaging and work in conjunction with an external N-Channel MOSFET for which the gate drive is controlled to provide inrush current limiting and output voltage slew-rate control. Overcurrent fault protection is also provided via a programmable overcurrent threshold and filter. Very fast fault response is provided to ensure that system power supplies maintain regulation even during output short circuits.

Features

• Provides safe insertion and removal from live –48V (nominal) backplanes
• Operates from –19V to –80V
• Fast responding circuit breaker (<1µs) to short circuit conditions
• User-programmable overcurrent detector response time
• Electronic circuit breaker function:
Output latch OFF (MIC2589/MIC2595)
Output auto-retry (MIC2589R/MIC2595R)
• Active current regulation to control inrush currents
• Programmable undervoltage and overvoltage lockouts (MIC2589/MIC2589R)
• Programmable UVLO hysteresis (MIC2595/MIC2595R)
• Staggered ‘Power-Good’ output signals provide load sequencing
Active-HIGH (-1)
