The LTC4233 and LTC4234 ensure safe board insertion and removal from live 2.9V to 15V backplanes. The supply range covers 3.3V, 5V, and 12V supplies. Even where hot-plug is not required, the controllers perform inrush current control, current limiting, and circuit breaker functions. Typical applications for these controllers are on space-constrained high-density boards and cards in mission-critical servers, network routers and switches, solid state drives, and industrial systems.
