Hot Swappable
2-Wire
Bus Buffers
The LT C
®
4300 series hot swappable 2-wire bus buffers
allow I/O card insertion into a live backplane without cor-
ruption of
the data and clock busses. When the connection
is made, the LTC4300-1/LTC4300-2 provide bidirectional
buffering, keeping the backplane and card capacitances
isolated. Rise time accelerator circuitry* allows the use of
weaker DC pull-up currents while still meeting rise time
requirements. During insertion, the SDA and SCL lines are
precharged to 1V to minimize bus disturbances.
The LTC4300-1 incorporates a CMOS threshold digital
ENABLE input
pin, which forces the part into a low current
mode when driven to ground and sets normal operation
when driven to V
CC
. It also includes an open drain READY
output pin, which indicates that the backplane and card
sides are connected together. The LTC4300-2 replaces
the ENABLE pin with a dedicated supply voltage pin, V
CC2
,
for the card side, providing level shifting between 3.3V
and 5V systems. Both the backplane and card may be
powered with supply voltages ranging from 2.7V to 5.5V,
with no constraints on which supply voltage is higher.
The LTC4300-2 also replaces the READY pin
with a
digital
CMOS input pin, ACC, which enables and disables the rise
time accelerator currents.
The LTC4300 is available in a small 8-lead MSOP package.
