MIC2588-2BM-TR

Hot Swap Controllers Overview

The MIC2588-2BM-TR is a single-channel, negative high-voltage hot swap power controller manufactured by Microchip Technology. It operates within a supply voltage range of -80V to -19V and features an internal switch for channel control. The device is designed for surface mount installation in an 8-SOIC package with a width of 3.90mm. It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C and draws a typical supply current of 3 mA.

Hot Swap Controllers Feature Summary

• Provides integrated protection for hot swapping applications on negative voltage rails
• Includes built-in soft-start functionality to limit inrush current during power-up
• Offers adjustable current limiting to protect against short circuits and overloads

Hot Swap Controllers Applications

• High-voltage backplane systems requiring safe module insertion
• Negative rail power distribution in industrial equipment
• Telecommunications infrastructure with -48V or similar negative supplies

Hot Swap Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix TR indicates tape and reel packaging when ordering. Confirm the -2B variant corresponds to the specific pinout and electrical characteristics required for your negative voltage design. Ensure the 8-SOIC footprint matches your PCB layout constraints. Check that the -40°C to 85°C operating range meets your environmental specifications.

Hot Swap Controllers Selection Notes

Select this component for single-channel negative voltage hot swap protection. Compare against positive voltage controllers if your system uses positive rails. Consider the 8-SOIC package size for space-constrained designs. Verify compatibility with your system's maximum voltage limits within the -19V to -80V range.

Hot Swap Controllers Part Context

This part belongs to the MIC2588 family of hot swap controllers. It is specifically engineered for negative voltage applications, distinguishing it from positive voltage counterparts like the MIC2586 series. The device integrates essential protection features into a compact surface-mount package suitable for modern electronic assemblies.

Hot Swap Controllers Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the MIC2588 family. Verify pin compatibility before replacing with other hot swap controllers. Ensure any alternative device supports the same negative voltage range and channel count.
