The EVAL-ADM1170EBZ is an evaluation kit for ADM1170. These parts are hot swap controllers with enable input and gate pin output to drive an external FET. The hot swap control circuitry allows the boards to be safely inserted and removed from a live 1.6V to 16.5V backplane. The parts provide precise, robust, current limiting protection against transient and non transient short circuits as well as under voltage and over current conditions. ADM1170 feature a soft start function that provides the user with a capacitor programmable ramping reference to the internal current-sense comparator. This provides a linearly increasing current limit at start up at a rate set by the soft start capacitor (CSS), which helps to reduce and limit large inrush currents.
