TCA9617A: hot-swappable?

Part Number: TCA9617A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TCA9511A, PCA9306

Hello,

Does the TCA9617A support live insertion and removal?

Best regards,

K.Hirano

  • K. Hirano,

    My same answer applies to this as the PCA9306 question you asked earlier. The TCA9617A does not include smart hotswap/insertion logic like TCA9511A/4307. You can design the device to support hot swap by utilizing the presence detect signal from the card to enable the TCA9617A after a short time delay using an RC circuit.
