21Description
22___________
23
24The LTC4282 hot swap controller allows a board to be safely inserted and removed
25from a live backplane. Using one or more external N-channel pass transistors,
26board supply voltage and inrush current are ramped up at an adjustable rate. An
27I2C interface and onboard ADC allows for monitoring of board current, voltage,
28power, energy and fault status. The device features analog foldback current
29limiting and supply monitoring for applications from 2.9V to 33V. Dual 12V gate
30drive allows high power applications to either share safe operating area across
31parallel MOSFETs or support a 2-stage start-up that first charges the load
32capacitance followed by enabling a low on-resistance path to the load. The
33LTC4282 is well suited to high power applications because the precise monitoring
34capability and accurate current limiting reduce the extremes in which both loads
35and power supplies must safely operate. Non-volatile configuration allows for
36flexibility in the autonomous generation of alerts and response to faults.

41The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write and all the other
42attributes are read-only. Note that in0 and in1 are mutually exclusive. Enabling
43one disables the other and disabling one enables the other.

110DebugFs entries
111_______________

113The chip also has a fault log register where failures can be logged. Hence,
114as these are logging events, we give access to them in debugfs. Note that
115even if some failure is detected in these logs, it does necessarily mean
116that the failure is still present. As mentioned in the proper Sysfs entries,
117these logs can be cleared by writing in the proper reset_history attribute.
118
119.. warning:: The debugfs interface is subject to change without notice
120 and is only available when the kernel is compiled with
121 ``CONFIG_DEBUG_FS`` defined.
