What are the key features of LTC4236CUFD-2#PBF?
- Supports hot swap operation up to 18 V with adjustable inrush current limit to protect backplane power rails during live board insertion
- 28-pin QFN EP package with exposed thermal pad minimizes PCB footprint while enabling thermal dissipation for sustained load current
- Integrated MOSFET gate drive and adjustable overcurrent threshold eliminate need for separate gate driver ICs in hot swap circuits
What is LTC4236CUFD-2#PBF used for?
The LTC4236CUFD-2#PBF is used in server backplanes, industrial plug-in module systems, and telecom line cards where boards must be inserted and removed while the system remains powered. Its adjustable current limiting prevents inrush spikes from disrupting shared 12 V or 18 V supply rails during hot insertion, protecting both the card and the backplane. Power system designers also use it in ATCA and CompactPCI chassis to manage per-slot power sequencing and fault isolation without interrupting adjacent boards.

Frequently Asked Questions
What maximum bus voltage can LTC4236CUFD-2#PBF protect during hot swap insertion, and how is the inrush limit set?
The LTC4236CUFD-2#PBF supports hot swap protection on bus voltages up to 18 V. The inrush current limit is set by an external sense resistor placed in the power path; selecting a resistor value between 1 mΩ and 50 mΩ programs the current limit threshold, typically between 1 A and 20 A, to match the board's bulk capacitance charging requirements without tripping the backplane breaker.
Why choose a 28-pin QFN package for LTC4236CUFD-2#PBF in a dense server slot controller versus a larger SOIC package?
The 28-pin QFN EP package of LTC4236CUFD-2#PBF occupies a PCB footprint of approximately 4 mm x 5 mm with an exposed thermal pad that conducts heat to the PCB ground plane, enabling sustained load currents without a heatsink. Compared to a 28-pin SOIC package at roughly 10 mm x 18 mm, the QFN saves over 60% of board area, which is critical in 1U server blades where multiple hot swap controllers must be placed near each backplane slot.
How does LTC4236CUFD-2#PBF handle an overcurrent fault during live board insertion in a 12 V ATCA chassis?
When load current exceeds the programmed threshold, the LTC4236CUFD-2#PBF responds within microseconds by ramping down the external N-channel MOSFET gate voltage to limit current to the set value. If the fault persists beyond a programmable timer period, typically 1 ms to 100 ms set by an external capacitor, the controller turns the FET fully off and latches the fault, isolating the faulted board from the 12 V rail and protecting adjacent slots in the ATCA chassis.
