Description
Features
The SC4250 is a negative voltage hotswap controller
that allows the insertion of line cards into a live backplane.
‹ Programmable slew of the inrush current when
The inrush current is programmable, and the closed loop
operation limits the maximum current even under short
circuit conditions. A built-in timing circuit prevents false
shutdown. The signal from the drain voltage is fed to the
timer, providing safety for the MOSFET when in linear
mode. The SC4250 latches off under abnormal conditions The power has to be recycled in order to resume
operation.
‹
used for hot insertion in the negative 24V and 48V
backplane
Closed loop operation limits the maximum current
even in short circuit condition
Built in timer prevents false shutdown when the
closed loop operation limits the current
Sensing the drain voltage allows for immediate
shutdown in short circuit conditions where current

Pin Descriptions

Pin Name
1
PWRGD/PWRGD
Power Good output pin. This pin will toggle when VDRAIN is within VPG of VEE. This pin can
be connected directly to the enable pin of a power module, 0.1µF to VEE is optional.
2
OV
Analog Overvoltage input. When OV is pulled above the 1.223V threshold, an overvoltage
condition is detected and the GATE pin will be immediately pulled low. The GATE pin will
remain low until OV drops below the 1.188V high to low threshold.
3
UV
Analog Undervoltage input. When UV is pulled below the 1.223V threshold, an
undervoltage condition is detected and the GATE pin will be immediately pulled low. The
GATE pin will remain low until UV rises above the 1.273 threshold. The UV pin is also
used to reset the electronic circuit breaker in the "latch OFF" version. If the UV pin is
cycled low and high following the trip of the circuit breaker, the circuit breaker is reset and
a normal power-up sequence will occur.
4
VEE
5
SENSE
Circuit breaker sense pin. With a sense resistor placed in the supply path between VEE
and SENSE, the circuit breaker will trip when the voltage across the resistor exceeds
60mV. Noise spikes of less than 2µs are filtered out and will not trip the circuit breaker. If
the circuit breaker trip current is set to twice the normal operating current, only 25mV is
dropped across the sense resistor during normal operation. To disable the circuit breaker,
VEE and SENSE can be shorted together.
6
GATE
Gate drive output for external N-channel. The GATE pin will go high when the following
start-up conditions are met: the UV pin is high, the OV pin is low and (VSENSE - VEE) <
60mV. The GATE pin is pulled high by a 50µA current source and pulled low with a 40mA
current source.
7
DRAIN
Analog Drain sense input. Connect this pin to the drain of the external N-channel FET
and the V(-) pin of the power module. When the DRAIN pin is below VPG, the PWRGD or
PWRGD pin will toggle.
8
VC C
Positive supply voltage input. Connect this pin to the higher potential of the power supply
input and the V(+) pin of the power module

POWER MANAGEMENT
Applications Information
Resistors R1, R2 and R3 make up a voltage divider to
set the Under-Voltage (UV) and Over-Voltage (OV) trip
points.
Insertion of a power circuit board into a live backplane
would draw enormous inrush currents. This is mostly due
to the charging of the bulk electrolytic capacitors at the
input of the power module being plugged in.
When the input power supply ramps up the UV trips at
1.273V and OV trips at 1.223V; during the ramp down
transition the UV trips at 1.223V and OV trips at 1.198V.
The transient currents would send glitches all over the
power system and could cause corruption of the signals
and even a power down if the source isn’t able to handle
these high surges.
The 50mV hysteresis for UV and 25mV hysteresis for OV
provide the necessary guard-bands to prevent false
tripping during power up and power down conditions.
This section describes the components selection needed
for a typical application utilizing the SC4250. Let’s assume
the following requirements for a representative system:
As an additional noise killing and stabilizing measure, the
capacitor C1 should be placed at the OV terminal with
the value in range from 1,000 to 10,000pF.
Input voltage range: 36V to 72V
For the UV=38V and OV=70V the values of the resistor
can be calculated as follows:
Nominal current: 2A typ.
Over-current condition: 5A
Vuv = 1.273V · (R1+R2+R3) ÷ (R2+R3)
Bulk capacitance: Cload = 150µF
Vov = 1.223V · (R1+R2+R3) ÷ R3
The schematic in Figure 2 combines internal function
blocks along with the external components of the
application circuit.
With the input bias current of the UV and OV comparators
in the range of 20-30nA, let’s choose the R1 to be
562kΩ. This yields the values of R2=9.31kΩ and R3 =
10.2kΩ. With these values the accuracy is about 1%
which is quite acceptable for those functions.

POWER MANAGEMENT
Applications Information (Cont.)
Resistor R4 sets the over-current trip. To choose R4,
the user must determine the level of the current where
it should trip. As a rule of thumb, the over-current is set
to be 200-300% of the nominal value. In our case, we
assumed this value to be 5A.
Resistor R5 will produce a time constant which prevents
Q1 from turning on when power is initially applied and
the circuit is not ready to actively pull the gate low. It’s
value is not critical and 18k ensures the adequate delay.
The value of C2 is chosen to prevent false turn-on of the
FET due to the current flowing via C3 into the gate of the
FET when the circuit initially connects to the power source.
Capacitors C2 and C3 form a divider from Vin to GND.
C2 must keep the initial voltage at the gate below Vth
minimum.
Considering the minimum trip voltage is 50mV the value
of R4 is 50mV ÷ 5A = 10 mΩ.
The tolerance of this resistor is usually price driven and
5% is an adequate range of accuracy.
The actual position and layout of the circuitry around the
sense resistor R4 is critical to avoid a false over-current
tripping. The trace routing between R4 and SC4250
should be as short as possible and wide enough to handle
the maximum current with zero current in the sense lines
– ideally “Kelvin” like. Additionally, there is a short delay
circuit at the comparator to filter out unwanted noise
and otherwise induced transients.
For the typical FET, this threshold is around 1V to 2V,
therefore C2 = 100 • C3 will keep gate voltage at 0.7V,
even at the ”worst” case of Vin = 70V.
The choice of the Q1 is quite straightforward and is guided
mostly by thermal considerations due to the power
dissipation in the steady state.
For instance, in our case, the nominal current is 2A, the
power dissipation due to the conducting losses will be
Inrush Current is being controlled by the R5C3 network
and swamping capacitor C2.
Pdis = Inom² • Rds_on.
When a board is plugged into a live backplane, the input
bulk capacitance of the board’s power supply produces
large current transients due to the rush of the currents
charging those capacitors. The main feature of the
SC4250 is to provide an orderly and well-controlled inrush
current.
The MOSFET should be able to withstand Vdss ≥ 100V
with continuous drain current Id ≥ 6A. Device SUD06N10
or similar fits this application. It has an Rds_on = 0.2Ω,
and will dissipate
Pdis = 2² • 0.2 = 0.8W, which can be handled by this
DPAK device.
Since the minimum trip voltage is 50mV, let’s choose
the inrush current to be 3A.
If there is a consideration of reducing the temperature
of the MOSFET then the lower Rds_on device should be
chosen or a different style (D2PAK) which has lower
Junction-to-Ambient thermal characteristics.
Imax = Cload · ∆Vmax /dt
dt = Cload · ∆Vmax /Imax = 150µF · 70V / 3A = 3.5ms
The R6 has a function of dumping high frequency
oscillations. The value of it is not critical and can be in
the range of 5Ω to 20Ω.
This would be the minimum time for the gate voltage
plateau during which the Vdd linearly decreases
maintaining 3A charge current of the Cload.
The inrush can be calculated using the following equation:
IMAX = (50µA • CLOAD) / C3
With the values shown in the schematic the actual inrush
current will be about 2A, which is within the limits we
have chosen.
