The LT C
®
1694 is a dual SMBus active pull-up designed to
enhance data transmission speed and reliability under all
specified SMBus loading conditions. The LTC1694 is also
compatible with the Philips I

C
TM
Bus.
The LTC1694 allows multiple device connections or a
longer, more capacitive interconnect, without compro-
mising slew rates or bus performance, by using two
bilevel hysteretic current source pull-ups.
During positive bus transitions, the LTC1694 current
sources provide 2.2mA to quickly slew the SMBus line.
During negative transitions or steady DC levels, the cur-
rent sources decrease to 275µA to improve negative slew
rate and improve low state noise margins. An auto detect
standby mode reduces supply current if both SCL and
SDA are high.
The LTC1694 is available in a 5-pin SOT-23 package,
requiring virtually the same space as two surface mount
resistors.
