I. Device Description
A. General
The MAX4370 is a circuit-breaker IC designed to offer protection in hot-swap applications using Maxim's
DualSpeed/BiLevel™ detection. This controller, designed to reside either on the backplane or on the removable card,
is used to protect a system from start-up damage when a card or board is inserted into a rack with the main system
power supply turned on. The card's discharged filter capacitors provide a low impedance that can momentarily cause
the main power supply to collapse. The MAX4370 prevents this start-up condition by providing inrush current
regulation during a programmable start-up period, allowing the system to stabilize safely. In addition, two on-chip
comparators provide DualSpeed/BiLevel short-circuit protection and overcurrent protection during normal operation.
The MAX4370 provides protection for a +3V to +12V single supply. An internal charge pump generates the controlled
gate drive for an external N-channel MOSFET power switch. The MAX4370 latches the switch off after a fault
condition until an external reset signal clears the device. Other features include a status pin to indicate a fault
condition, an adjustable overcurrent response time, and a power-on reset comparator.
The MAX4370 is specified for the extended-industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and is available in an 8-pin
SO package.

VI. Reliability Evaluation
A. Accelerated Life Test
The results of the 135°C biased (static) life test are shown in Table 1. Using these results, the Failure
Rate (λ) is calculated as follows:
λ=
1
=
MTTF
1.83
(Chi square value for MTTF upper limit)
192 x 4389 x 80 x 2
Thermal acceleration factor assuming a 0.8eV activation energy
λ = 13.57 x 10-9
λ= 13.57 F.I.T. (60% confidence level @ 25°C)
This low failure rate represents data collected from Maxim’s reliability qualification and monitor programs.
Maxim also performs weekly Burn-In on samples from production to assure the reliability of its processes. The
reliability required for lots which receive a burn-in qualification is 59 F.I.T. at a 60% confidence level, which equates
to 3 failures in an 80 piece sample. Maxim performs failure analysis on lots exceeding this level. The following
Burn-In Schematic (Spec. # 06-5452) shows the static circuit used for this test. Maxim also performs 1000 hour
life test monitors quarterly for each process. This data is published in the Product Reliability Report (RR-1M).
B. Moisture Resistance Tests
Maxim evaluates pressure pot stress from every assembly process during qualification of each new
design. Pressure Pot testing must pass a 20% LTPD for acceptance. Additionally, industry standard
85°C/85%RH or HAST tests are performed quarterly per device/package family.
C. E.S.D. and Latch-Up Testing
The OP54 die type has been found to have all pins able to withstand a transient pulse of ±2500V, per MilStd-883 Method 3015 (reference attached ESD Test Circuit). Latch-Up testing has shown that this device
withstands a current of ±250mA and/or ±20V.
