OPERATIO
Hot Circuit Insertion
When circuit boards are inserted into a live backplane, the
supply bypass capacitors can draw huge transient cur-
rents from the power bus as they charge. The flow of
current damages the connector pins and glitches the
power bus, causing other boards in the system to reset.
The LTC4253A-ADJ is designed to turn on a circuit board
supply in a controlled manner, allowing insertion or re-
moval without glitches or connector damage.
Initial Start-Up
The LTC4253A-ADJ resides on a removable circuit board
and controls the path between the connector and load or
power conversion circuitry with an external MOSFET switch.
Both inrush control and short-circuit protection are pro-
vided by the MOSFET.
A detailed schematic is shown in Figure 1. – 48V and
– 48RTN receive power through the longest connector
pins and are the first to connect when the board is
inserted. The GATE pin holds the MOSFET off during this
time. UV/UVL/OV/OVL determines whether or not the
MOSFET should be turned on based upon internal high
accuracy thresholds and an external divider. UV/UVL/OV/
OVL does double duty by also monitoring whether or not
the connector is seated. The top of the divider detects

Interlock Conditions
A start-up sequence commences once these “interlock”
conditions are met:
1. The input voltage V
2. The voltage at UV > V
3. The voltage at OVL < V
4. The input voltage at RESET < 0.8V
5. The (SENSE – V
6. The voltage at SS is < 0.2V (20 • V
7. The voltage on the TIMER capacitor (C
8. The voltage at GATE is < 0.5V (V
The first four conditions are continuously monitored and
the latter four are checked prior to initial timing or GATE
ramp-up. Upon exiting an overvoltage condition, the
TIMER pin voltage requirement is inhibited. Details are
described in the Applications Information, Timing Wave-
forms section.
