Power management for Programmable Logic Controllers
The complexity of a power engineer’s task in contemporary electronic design is made even more difficult by the range of components used and, in particular, the individual power supply requirements each of these components requires. By Jeff Hooker.
Power management system requirements
Many companies offer integrated hot-swap controllers that use a MOSFET to control how fast the current flows into the board’s hold up capacitor. With considerations for the variances in input capacitances of the hot-swap components, the controller timing can be set to ensure that the current does not exceed the capacity of the system, or the safe operating conditions for the control the MOSFET.
