MAX5937AAESA+

Hot Swap Controllers Overview

The MAX5937AAESA+ is a single-channel hot-swap voltage controller designed for -48V applications. It operates within a supply voltage range of -10V to -80V and is housed in an 8-SOIC package with a width of 3.90mm. The device integrates programmable features including auto retry, circuit breaker functionality, current limit, fault timeout, slew rate control, and under-voltage lockout (UVLO). It does not contain an internal switch.

Hot Swap Controllers Feature Summary

• Supports auto retry and fault timeout mechanisms for robust power management
• Enables programmable slew rate and UVLO settings for controlled power sequencing
• Integrates circuit breaker and current limit protection capabilities

Hot Swap Controllers Applications

• -48V telecommunications systems
• Hot-swap module insertion in industrial equipment
• Power distribution units requiring controlled power-up sequences

Hot Swap Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify component status as the MAX5937AAESA+ is listed as obsolete by the manufacturer. Confirm availability through authorized distributors or secondary market suppliers such as Rochester Electronics. Ensure documentation matches the specific suffix and verify RoHS compliance details before procurement integration.

Hot Swap Controllers Selection Notes

Select this controller for -48V systems requiring external FET switching with precise control over inrush current and fault handling. Consider the 8-SOIC package constraints and operating temperature range. Evaluate if programmable UVLO and slew rate features meet system power-up requirements compared to fixed-parameter alternatives.

Hot Swap Controllers Part Context
