MIC2582/83
Single Channel Hot Swap Controller
Preliminary Information
General Description
The MIC2582 and MIC2582/83 are single channel positive
voltage hot-swap controllers designed to provide for the safe
insertion of boards into live system backplanes. Using few
external components, the parts act in conjunction with an
external N-Channel MOSFET device, for which the gate drive
is controlled to provide inrush current-limiting and output
voltage slew rate control. The MIC2582/3 are rated for
operation from supply voltages from 2.3V to 13.2V, but can
withstand transient voltages as high as 20V without damage.
Overcurrent fault protection is provided along with a program-
mable over-current threshold. Active current regulation dur-
ing start-up ensures that inrush current never exceeds the
programmed threshold. The MIC2582/3 provide a circuit
breaker function that latches the output MOSFET off if the
current limit threshold is exceeded for a programmed period
of time. Dual-level fault detection allows very fast response
to short-circuit faults while preventing lower level overcurrent
transients from causing “nuisance tripping” of the circuit
breaker. A FAULT# signal is provided indicating overcurrent
or undervoltage fault conditions.

Pin Description
Pin Name SOIC QSOP Pin Function
FAULT# NA 11 Circuit Breaker Fault Output. Open-Drain, Active-Low. Asserted when the
circuit breaker is tripped.
ON 2 3 ON input. With this pin high, the device is enabled, a start-up sequence is
initiated, and the GATE pin starts ramping up towards its final operating
voltage. The ON input is compared to a VTH reference with 25mV of
hysteresis.
Toggling ON is also used to reset the circuit breaker. ON must be low for
20µs in order to initiate a start-up sequence. This pin should not be taken
higher than VCC + 0.3V, or 8V, whichever is less.
POR# 1 1 Power-On Reset Output. Open-Drain, Active-Low. Asserted during start-up
until a time period tPOR after the power-good threshold is reached. tPOR is
determined by capacitor CPOR. Also asserted during undervoltage lockout
fault conditions.
CPOR 3 4 Power-on Reset Timer. A capacitor connected between this pin and ground
sets the Power-On Reset interval, tPOR, and start-up delay tDELAY. When
VCC rises above the UVLO, the capacitor connected to CPOR begins to
charge. When the voltage at CPOR crosses 0.3V, a start cycle is initiated if
ON is asserted. CPOR is reset to zero volts.
When the voltage at FB rises above VFBTH, CPOR begins to charge again.
When the voltage at CPOR rises above VPORDLY, the timer resets, pulls
CPOR to ground, and POR# is de-asserted. If CPOR = 0, then tDELAY is set to
20µs.
SENSE 7 15 Circuit Breaker Sense Input. A resistor between this pin and VCC sets the
current-limit threshold. When the current-limit threshold of 50mV is ex-
ceeded for tOCSLOW (internally set at 5µs for the MIC2582), the circuit
breaker is tripped and the GATE pin is immediately pulled low. If the voltage
across the sense resistor exceeds VTHSLOW due to fast high amplitude faults
such as short-circuits, then the GATE pin is immediately brought low (no
delay).
VTHSLOW is available for value of 50mV, 100mV, 200mV, or Off. Whenever
the voltage across the sense resistor exceeds the current-limit threshold, the
GATE voltage is adjusted to ensure a constant load current. To disable the
circuit breaker, the SENSE and VCC pins can be tied together.
GATE 6 14 Gate Drive Output. Connects to the gate of an N-Channel MOSFET. An
internal clamp ensures that no more than 8V is applied between the GATE
and Source. When the circuit breaker trips or when undervoltage lockout
occurs the GATE pin is immediately brought low.
FB 5 12 Power-Good Threshold Input. This input is internally compared to a 1.24V
reference with 30mV of hysteresis. Whenever this input goes below 1.24V,
POR# is asserted. A 5µs filter on this pin prevents negative-going glitches
from causing nuisance activation of this pin. If this input momentarily goes
below 1.24V, then POR# is activated for one timing cycle, tPOR.
VCC 8 16 Positive Supply Input. 2.3V - 13.2V. The GATE pin is held low by an internal
undervoltage lockout circuit until VCC exceeds a threshold of 2.1V. If VCC
exceeds 13.2V, an internal shunt regulator protects the chip from transient
voltages up to 20V at the VCC and SENSE pins.
CFILTER NA 5 Current-limit Response Timer. A capacitor connected to this pin defines the
period of time tOCSLOW in which an overcurrent event must last to signal a
fault condition and trip the circuit breaker. If no capacitor is connected to this
pin, then tOCSLOW is set to 5µs.
During auto-retry, the MIC2582/83R exhibits a preset duty cycle of 10%.
The value of CFILTER will set the interval between auto-retry attempts.
See Applications section.

Pin Name SOIC QSOP Pin Function
PWRGD NA 2 Power-good Output. Open Drain. When the voltage at the FB pin is lower
than 1.24V, PWRGD output is held low. When the voltage at the FB pin is
higher than 1.24V, then PWRGD is de-asserted. A pull-up resistor con-
nected to this pin and to VCC will pull the output up to VCC.
DIS NA 13 Discharge output. When the MIC2582/83 is turned off, a 500 resistor
connected to this output allows the discharging of external load capacitance
to ground.
GND 4 7,8 Ground connection

Functional Description
Functional Overview
When ON is asserted high, the device is enabled and a start-
up sequence is initiated. The GATE begins to ramp up at a
rate determined by CGATE. When the FB pin exceeds the
internal 1.24V threshold reference, PWRGD# is de-asserted,
signaling an available output. Internal current regulation
ensures that the inrush current will not exceed the pro-
grammed threshold. A circuit breaker function will latch the
output MOSFET off if the current limit threshold is exceeded
for a period, tOCSLOW, determined by CFILTER (tOCSLOW = 5µs
with no CFILTER).
ON Pin (Maximum Voltage)
The ON pin for the MIC2582/3 has an absolute maximum
voltage rating of (VCC + 0.3V) or 8V, whichever is less. At
operating voltages of 2.3 - 7.5V, the ON pin may be con-
nected directly to the VCC pin through a pull-up resistor
(100k suggested). But when operating at voltages between
7.5 and 13.2V, it is necessary to include a voltage divider from
the ON pin to ground. A 100k resistor is also recommended
for the divider.
GATE Pin Rise Time
The internal output MOSFET is at the GATE pin. The GATE
pin rise time must be limited when operating the MIC2582/3
with a large output capacitance. Using the basic formula dv/
dt = I/C, the rise time may be computed for a given MOSFET
and CGATE. Here, I is the average GATE pin pull-up current,
and C is the total capacitance (CGATE + CGS). For applica-
tions using COUT = 500µF, a 100nF CGATE is recommended
to allow the output capacitor time to charge.
Supply Bypass (Protect VCC pin)
When operating above an input of 10V, a capacitor of 47µF
minimum value is needed to suppress voltage transients from
causing damage to the VCC pin. When operating below 10V,
a minimum value of 4.7µF may be used.
Voltage Divider at FB Pin
There are two important points to note here. First, consider-
ation should be taken to determine the desired output value
for MIC2582/3 turn on. For example, if the application is
operating at 12V, the desired turn on may be 11.5V. The two
FB resistors are selected to divide 11.5V accordingly, with
1.24V set at the FB pin. Second, the ratio of these two
resistors should be chosen to maintain relatively low power
consumption. A current level of approximately 100µA is
recommended.
