MAX5955AEEE+

Hot Swap Controllers Overview

The MAX5955AEEE+ is a low-voltage, dual hot-swap controller manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1V to 13.2V and draws a typical supply current of 1.2 mA. The device features adjustable current limiting and is housed in a 16-lead QSOP package. It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and includes power-fail detection capabilities.

Hot Swap Controllers Feature Summary

• Dual-channel architecture with independent on/off control for each channel
• Adjustable current limiting with programmable fault timeout protection
• Integrated overvoltage protection (OVP) and undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
• Automatic retry functionality upon fault clearance

Hot Swap Controllers Applications

• Hot-swap insertion into live backplanes
• Power distribution systems requiring controlled ramp-up
• Industrial equipment input power stages
• Telecommunications infrastructure power modules

Hot Swap Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EEE' confirms the 16-QSOP package and commercial temperature grade. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated by the '+' suffix. Check current availability status as this component may be subject to limited supply or discontinuation notices from the manufacturer.

Hot Swap Controllers Selection Notes

Select this controller when dual-channel hot-swap management is required for low-voltage applications up to 13.2V. Ensure the 16-QSOP package fits the PCB layout constraints. Verify that the adjustable current limit settings align with the downstream load requirements and cable ratings.

Hot Swap Controllers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX5955 family of low-voltage hot-swap controllers. It shares functional similarities with the MAX5955B variant but differs in package and specific feature sets like independent control. It serves as a PMIC solution for protecting circuits during board insertion.

Hot Swap Controllers Replacement Considerations

The MAX5955AUEE+ is a direct pin-compatible alternative offering the same functionality in a 16-SSOP package. Verify package dimensions and thermal characteristics before substitution.
