FUNCTION
DESCRIPTION
Low
1
0
Independent
Each channel operates as an independent hot-swap controller. A fault
shutdown in one channel does not affect operation of other channels.
High
0
1
Paired
Channels 1 and 3 operate together as one pair while channels 2 and 4
operate as another pair. A fault shutdown in one channel of a pair shuts
down both channels in the pair.
Unconnected
0
0
Grouped
All channels operate as a group. A fault shutdown in one channel shuts
down all four channels.
Grouping Hot-Swap Channels
Depending on the state of the MODE input, the four-
channel MAX5961 can operate as four independent
hot-swap controllers, two pairs of controllers, or with all
four controllers grouped together (see Tables 2 and 4a).
