A circuit for controlling an electronic semiconductor switching device to
limit the in-rush current when an expansion board is plugged into an
electronic system. An integrated thin-film capacitor is used in a
high-voltage feedback circuit by attenuating the output voltage, which can
be substantially greater than the breakdown voltage of the capacitor, with
an integrated voltage divider. An adequate slew rate is obtained using a
low capacitance by providing a high-impedance internal feedback node that
is coupled to the gate of a power FET with a voltage buffer.
