MAX4273EEE+T

Hot Swap Controllers Overview

The MAX4273EEE+T is a single-channel hot-swap controller designed for positive low-voltage applications. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 13.2V and features an internal current-limiting mechanism with adjustable thresholds. The device supports automatic retry, fault timeout, and latch-fault protection modes. It is housed in a 16-pin QSOP package and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Hot Swap Controllers Feature Summary

• Integrated current limiting with adjustable threshold control
• Configurable protection modes including automatic retry and latch-fault
• Built-in overvoltage protection and undervoltage lockout

Hot Swap Controllers Applications

• Hot-swap circuit protection for backplane systems
• Peripheral board insertion protection
• General-purpose power distribution management

Hot Swap Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EEE' confirms the 16-pin QSOP package variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated by the '+' designation. Ensure the design supports the required supply voltage range between 2.7V and 13.2V. Check for availability constraints as this component may be subject to limited stock or special order requirements from the manufacturer.

Hot Swap Controllers Selection Notes

Select this controller when precise current limiting and configurable fault handling are required for low-voltage hot-swap applications. The 16-pin QSOP package suits space-constrained designs requiring surface-mount installation. Consider the internal switch absence if external switching elements are preferred or necessary for higher current handling beyond the controller's internal capabilities.
