Intersil's latest hot-swap power controller ICs are its first designed specifically for telecommunications and datacommunications applications. The Endura ISL6140 and ISL6150 eliminate system down time by allowing line cards and communications modules to be replaced or upgraded while the rest of the system remains live and without losing service. The ISL6140 and ISL6150 are negative-voltage hot-plug ICs that provide protection for telecomms cards and modules with hot swap (live insertion/removal) facilities for central offices, PBXs, digital subscriber line access multiplexers (DSLAMs), digital loop remote terminals, voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) routers, wireless basestations, Internet traffic routers, optical networking equipment and file servers.

The ISL6140 and ISL6150 are designed to meet the -48V, and higher, needs of the telecomms industry and operate over a -10 to -80V range (-100V max).

They offer programmable features including inrush current, circuit breaker level, overvoltage protection and undervoltage lockout.

A power good condition is indicated with an active-low logic output by the ISL6140 and an active-high output by the ISL6150.

The ISL6140 and ISL 6150 are available now in 8-pin SOIC packaging.
