The MAX5923 is a fully integrated Simple SwapperTM hot-swap switch for positive supply rails. The device allows the safe insertion and removal of circuit cards into live backplanes or ports without causing glitches on the power-supply rail. The device also monitors various circuit parameters and disconnects the load if a fault condition occurs, alerting the host with a logiclevel FAULT output. The MAX5923 operates over the +16V to +60V input voltage range.
