Figure 2. Applications Diagram
An internal current sense amplifier senses voltage across the sense
resistor in the power path via the VCC pin and the SENSE pin.
The ADM1176 limits the current through this resistor by controlling the gate voltage of an external N-channel FET in the power
path, via the GATE pin. The sense voltage (and, therefore, the
inrush current) is kept below a preset maximum.
The ADM1176 protects the external FET by limiting the time
that it spends with maximum current running through it. This
current limit period is set by the choice of capacitor attached to
the TIMER pin. Additionally, the device provides protection from
overcurrent events that may occur once the hot swap event is
complete. In the case of a short-circuit event, the current in the
sense resistor exceeds an overcurrent trip threshold, and the FET
is switched off immediately by pulling down the GATE pin.
A 12-bit ADC can measure the current seen in the sense
resistor, as well as the supply voltage on the VCC pin. An
industry-standard I2C interface allows a controller to read
current and voltage data from the ADC. Measurements can be
initiated by an I2C command. Alternatively, the ADC can run
continuously, and the user can read the latest conversion data
whenever it is required. Up to 16 unique I2C addresses can be
created, depending on the way the A0 and A1 pins are connected.
The ADM1176 is packaged in a 10-lead MSOP.

Description
Positive Supply Input Pin. The operating supply voltage range is from 3.15 V to 16.5 V. An undervoltage
lockout (UVLO) circuit resets the ADM1176 when a low supply voltage is detected.
Current Sense Input Pin. A sense resistor between the VCC pin and the SENSE pin sets the analog current
limit. The hot swap operation of the ADM1176 controls the external FET gate to maintain the (VVCC − VSENSE)
voltage at 100 mV or below.
Undervoltage Input Pin. Active-high pin. An internal ON comparator has a trip threshold of 1.3 V, and the
output of this comparator is used as an enable for the hot swap operation. With an external resistor divider
from VCC to GND, this pin can be used to enable the hot swap operation on a specific voltage on VCC, giving
an undervoltage function.
Chip Ground Pin.
Timer Pin. An external capacitor, CTIMER, sets a 270 ms/μF initial timing cycle delay and a 21.7 ms/μF fault delay.
The GATE pin turns off when the TIMER pin is pulled beyond the upper threshold. An overvoltage detection
with an external Zener can be used to force this pin high.
I2C Clock Pin. Open-drain input requires an external resistive pull-up.
I2C Data I/O Pin. Open-drain input/output. Requires an external resistive pull-up.
I2C Address Pin. This pin can be tied low, tied high, left floating, or tied low through a resistor. Sixteen different
I2C address options are available, depending on the external configuration of the A0 pin and A1 pin.
I2C Address Pin. This pin can be tied low, tied high, left floating or tied low through a resistor. Sixteen different
I2C address options are available, depending on the external configuration of the A0 pin and the A1 pin.
GATE Output Pin. This pin is the high-side gate drive of an external N-channel FET. This pin is driven by the
FET drive controller, which utilizes a charge pump to provide a 12.5 μA pull-up current to charge the FET
GATE pin. The FET drive controller regulates to a maximum load current (100 mV through the sense resistor)
by modulating the GATE pin.

ADM1176
ADM1176
OVERVIEW OF THE HOT SWAP FUNCTION
When circuit boards are inserted into a live backplane, discharged
supply bypass capacitors draw large transient currents from the
backplane power bus as they charge. Such transient currents can
cause permanent damage to connector pins, as well as dips on
the backplane supply that can reset other boards in the system.
The ADM1176 is designed to turn a circuit board supply voltage on
and off in a controlled manner, allowing the circuit board to be
safely inserted into or removed from a live backplane. The
ADM1176 can reside either on the backplane or on the circuit
board itself.
The ADM1176 controls the inrush current to a fixed maximum
level by modulating the gate of an external N-channel FET placed
between the live supply rail and the load. This hot swap function
protects the card connectors and the FET itself from damage and
limits any problems that can be caused by high current loads on
the live supply rail.
The ADM1176 holds the GATE pin down (and, thus, the FET is
held off) until a number of conditions are met. An undervoltage
lockout circuit ensures that the device is provided with an adequate
input supply voltage. Once the input supply voltage has been
successfully detected, the device goes through an initial timing
cycle to provide a delay before it attempts to hot swap. This delay
ensures that the board is fully seated in the backplane before
the board is powered up.
Once the initial timing cycle is complete, the hot swap function
is switched on under control of the ON pin. When the ON pin
is asserted high, the hot swap operation starts.
The ADM1176 charges up the gate of the FET to turn on the
load. It continues to charge up the GATE pin until the linear
current limit (set to 100 mV/RSENSE) is reached. For some combinations of low load capacitance and high current limit, this limit
may not be reached before the load is fully charged up. If current
limit is reached, the ADM1176 regulates the GATE pin to keep
the current at this limit. For currents above the overcurrent
fault timing threshold, nominally 100 mV/RSENSE, the current
fault is timed by sourcing a current out to the TIMER pin. If the
load becomes fully charged before the fault current limit time is
reached (when the TIMER pin reaches 1.3 V), the current drops
below the overcurrent fault timing threshold. The ADM1176
then charges the GATE pin higher to fully enhance the FET for
lowest RON, and the TIMER pin is pulled down again.
If the fault current limit time is reached before the load drops
below the current limit, a fault has been detected, and the hot
swap operation is aborted by pulling down on the GATE pin to
turn off the FET. The ADM1176-2 latches off at this point and
attempts to hot swap again only when the ON pin is deasserted
and then asserted again.
The ADM1176-1 retries the hot swap operation indefinitely,
keeping the FET in its safe operating area (SOA) by using the
TIMER pin to time a cool-down period in between hot swap
attempts. The current and voltage threshold combinations on
the TIMER pin set the retry duty cycle to 3.8%.
The ADM1176 is designed to operate over a range of supplies
from 3.15 V to 16.5 V.
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
An internal undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit resets the
ADM1176 if the VCC supply is too low for normal operation.
The UVLO has a low-to-high threshold of 2.8 V, with 80 mV
hysteresis. Above 2.8 V supply voltage, the ADM1176 starts the
initial timing cycle.
ON FUNCTION
The ADM1176-1 has an active-high ON pin. The ON pin is the
input to a comparator that has a low-to-high threshold of 1.3 V,
a 50 mV hysteresis, and a glitch filter of 3 μs. A low input on the
ON pin turns off the hot swap operation by pulling the GATE pin
to ground, turning off the external FET. The TIMER pin is also
reset by turning on a pull-down current on this pin. A low-tohigh transition on the ON pin starts the hot swap operation.
A 10 kΩ pull-up resistor connecting the ON pin to the supply
is recommended.
Alternatively, an external resistor divider at the ON pin can be
used to program an undervoltage lockout value higher than the
internal UVLO circuit, thereby setting a voltage level at the
VCC supply where the hot swap operation is to start. An RC
filter can be added at the ON pin to increase the delay time at
card insertion if the initial timing cycle delay is insufficient.
TIMER FUNCTION
The TIMER pin handles several timing functions with an
external capacitor, CTIMER. There are two comparator thresholds:
VTIMERH (0.2 V) and VTIMERL (1.3 V). The four timing current
sources are a 5 μA pull-up, a 60 μA pull-up, a 2 μA pull-down,
and a 100 μA pull-down. The 100 μA pull-down is a non-ideal
current source approximating a 7 kΩ resistor below 0.4 V.
These current and voltage levels, together with the value of CTIMER
chosen by the user, determine the initial timing cycle time, the
fault current limit time, and the hot swap retry duty cycle.

ADM1176
GATE AND TIMER FUNCTIONS DURING
A HOT SWAP
CALCULATING CURRENT LIMITS AND FAULT
CURRENT LIMIT TIME
During hot insertion of a board onto a live supply rail at VCC,
the abrupt application of supply voltage charges the external
FET drain/gate capacitance, which can cause an unwanted gate
voltage spike. An internal circuit holds GATE low before the
internal circuitry wakes up. This reduces the FET current surges
substantially at insertion. The GATE pin is also held low during
the initial timing cycle and until the ON pin has been taken
high to start the hot swap operation.
The nominal linear current limit is determined by a sense
resistor connected between the VCC pin and the SENSE pin
as given by Equation 1.
During hot swap operation, the GATE pin is first pulled up by
a 12 μA current source. If the current through the sense resistor
reaches the overcurrent fault timing threshold, VOCTIM, a pull-up
current of 60 μA on the TIMER pin, is turned on; and this pin
starts charging up. At a slightly higher voltage in the sense
resistor, the error amplifier servos the GATE pin to maintain a
constant current to the load by controlling the voltage across
the sense resistor to the linear current limit, VLIM.
The maximum linear fault current is given by Equation 3.
A normal hot swap is complete when the board supply capacitors near full charge and the current through the sense resistor
drops to eventually reach the level of the board load current.
As soon as the current drops below the overcurrent fault timing
threshold, the current into the TIMER pin switches from being a
60 μA pull-up to a 100 μA pull-down. The ADM1176 then drives
the GATE voltage as high as it can to fully enhance the FET and
reduce RON losses to a minimum.
IOCTIM(MIN) = VOCTIM(MIN)/RSENSE(MAX) = 85 mV/RSENSE(MAX)
A hot swap fails if the load current does not drop below the
over-current fault timing threshold, VOCTIM, before the TIMER
pin has charged up to 1.3 V. In this case the GATE pin is then
pulled down with a 2 mA current sink. The GATE pull-down
stays on until a hot swap retry starts, which can be forced by
deasserting and then reasserting the ON pin. On the ADM1176-1,
the device retries automatically after a cool-down period.
The ADM1176 also features a method of protection from
sudden load current surges, such as a low impedance fault,
when the current seen across the sense resistor may go well
beyond the linear current limit. If the fast overcurrent trip
threshold, VOCFAST, is exceeded, the 2 mA GATE pull-down is
turned on immediately. This pulls the GATE voltage down
quickly to enable the ADM1176 to limit the length of the
current spike that gets through and also to bring the current
through the sense resistor back into linear regulation as quickly
as possible. This process protects the backplane supply from
sustained overcurrent conditions that can otherwise cause the
backplane supply to droop during the overcurrent event.
ILIMIT(NOM) = VLIM(NOM)/RSENSE = 100 mV/RSENSE
(1)
The minimum linear fault current is given by Equation 2.
ILIMIT(MIN) = VLIM(MIN)/RSENSE(MAX) = 90 mV/RSENSE(MAX)
ILIMIT(MAX) = VLIM(MAX)/RSENSE(MIN) = 110 mV/RSENSE(MIN)
(2)
(3)
The power rating of the sense resistor should be rated at the
maximum linear fault current level.
The minimum overcurrent fault timing threshold current is
given by Equation 4.
(4)
The maximum fast overcurrent trip threshold current is given
by Equation 5.
IOCFAST(MAX) = VOCFAST(MAX)/RSENSE(MIN) = 115 mV/RSENSE(MIN) (5)
The fault current limit time is the time that a device spends
timing an overcurrent fault, and is given by Equation 6.
tFAULT ≈ 21.7 × CTIMER ms/μF
(6)
INITIAL TIMING CYCLE
When VCC is first connected to the backplane supply, the
internal supply (Time Point (1) in Figure 30) of the ADM1176
must be charged up. A very short time later (significantly less
than 1 ms), the internal supply is fully up and, because the
undervoltage lockout voltage has been exceeded at VCC, the
device comes out of reset. During this first short reset period,
the GATE pin is held down with a 25 mA pull-down current,
and the TIMER pin is pulled down with a 100 μA current sink.
The ADM1176 then goes through an initial timing cycle. At
Time Point (2), the TIMER pin is pulled high with 5 μA. At
Time Point (3), the TIMER reaches the VTIMERL threshold, and
the first portion of the initial cycle ends. The 100 μA current
source then pulls down the TIMER pin until it reaches 0.2 V at
Time Point (4). The initial cycle delay (Time Point (2) to Time
Point (4)) is related to CTIMER by Equation 7.

tINITIAL ≈ 270 × CTIMER ms/μF

ADM1176

When the initial timing cycle terminates, the device is ready to
start a hot swap operation (assuming ON pin is asserted). In the
example shown in Figure 30, the ON pin is asserted at the same
time that VCC is applied, so the hot swap operation starts
immediately after Time Point (4). At this point, the FET gate is
charged up with a 12 μA current source.

At Time Point (5), the threshold voltage of the FET is reached,

As with all ADM1176 devices, on overcurrent fault is timed by

ADM1176-1, the TIMER pin is then pulled down with a 2 μA
current sink. When the TIMER pin reaches 0.2 V, it automatically restarts the hot swap operation.

ADM1176
VOLTAGE AND CURRENT READBACK
In addition to providing hot swap functionality, the ADM1176
contains the components to allow voltage and current readback
over an Inter-IC (I2C) bus. The voltage output of the current sense
amplifier and the voltage on the VCC pin are fed into a 12-bit
ADC via a multiplexer. The device can be instructed to convert
voltage and/or current at any time during operation via an I2C
command. When all conversions are complete, the voltage
and/or current values can be read out to 12-bit accuracy in
two or three bytes.
1.
SERIAL BUS INTERFACE
The peripheral whose address corresponds to the transmitted
address responds by pulling the data line low during the
low period before the ninth clock pulse, known as the
acknowledge bit, and holding it low during the high period of
this clock pulse. All other devices on the bus now remain
idle while the selected device waits for data to be read from
it or written to it. If the R/W bit is 0, the master writes to the
slave device. If the R/W bit is 1, the master reads from the
slave device.
Control of the ADM1176 is carried out via the I2C bus. This
interface is compatible with fast mode I2C (400 kHz maximum).
The ADM1176 is connected to this bus as a slave device under
the control of a master device.
IDENTIFYING THE ADM1176 ON THE I2C BUS
The ADM1176 has a 7-bit serial bus slave address. When the
device powers up, it does so with a default serial bus address.
The three MSBs of the address are set to 100, and the four LSBs
are determined by the state of the A0 pin and the A1 pin. There
are 16 different configurations available on the A0 pin and the
A1 pin that correspond to 16 different I2C addresses for the four
LSBs (see Table 5). This scheme allows sixteen ADM1176 devices
to operate on a single I2C bus.

The master initiates data transfer by establishing a start
condition, defined as a high-to-low transition on the serial
data line, SDA, while the serial clock line SCL remains
high. This indicates that a data stream follows. All slave
peripherals connected to the serial bus respond to the start
condition and shift in the next eight bits, consisting of a 7bit slave address (MSB first) plus an R/W bit that
determines the direction of the data transfer; that is,
whether data is to be written to or read from the slave
device (0 = write, 1 = read).
Data is sent over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock
pulses: eight bits of data followed by an acknowledge bit
from the slave device. Data transitions on the data line
must occur during the low period of the clock signal and
remain stable during the high period, because a low-tohigh transition when the clock is high can be interpreted as
a stop signal.
If the operation is a write operation, the first data byte after
the slave address is a command byte. This tells the slave
device what to expect next. It can be an instruction, such
as telling the slave device to expect a block write;
or it can be a register address that tells the slave where
subsequent data is to be written.
Because data can flow in only one direction, as defined by
the R/W bit, it is not possible to send a command to a slave
device during a read operation. Before doing a read
operation, it may first be necessary to do a write operation
to tell the slave what sort of read operation to expect
and/or the address from which data is to be read.
3.
GENERAL I2C TIMING
Figure 32 and Figure 33 show timing diagrams for general read
and write operations using the I2C. The I2C specification defines
conditions for different types of read and write operations, which
are discussed later. The general I2C protocol operates as follows:
Rev. 0 | Page 16 of 24
When all data bytes have been read or written, stop
conditions are established. In write mode, the master pulls
the data line high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a
stop condition. In read mode, the master device releases
the SDA line during the low period before the ninth clock
pulse, but the slave device does not pull it low. This is
known as a no acknowledge. The master then takes the data
line low during the low period before the 10th clock pulse,
then high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a stop
condition.

The ADM1176 can be set up to provide information in three
different ways (see the Write Command Byte section). Depending
on how the device is configured, the following data can be read
out of the device after a conversion (or conversions).
where:
VFULLSCALE = 6.65 (7:2 range) or 26.35 (14:1 range).
Code is the ADC voltage code read from the device (Bit V0
to V11).
Current Readback
The ADM1176 digitizes current only. Two bytes are read out of
the device in the format shown in Table 14.

Read Status Register
The following series of events occur when the master receives
three bytes (voltage and current data) from the slave device:
A single register of status data can also be read from the
ADM1176.
1.
The master device asserts a start condition on SDA.

Function
An ADC-based overcurrent comparison has been detected on the last three conversions
An ADC-based overcurrent trip has happened, which has caused the alert. Cleared by writing to Bit 4 of the ALERT_EN
register.
The hot swap is off due to an analog overcurrent event. On parts that latch off, this is the same as the HS_ALERT status
bit (if EN_HS_ALERT = 1). On the retry parts, this indicates the current state: a 0 may indicate that the data was read
during a period when the device was retrying, or that it has successfully hot swapped by retrying after at least one
overcurrent timeout.
The hot swap has failed since the last time this was reset. Cleared by writing to Bit 4 of the ALERT_EN register.
The state of the ON pin. Set to 1 if the input pin is deasserted. Can also be set to 1 by writing to the SWOFF bit of the
CONTROL register.
An alert has been caused by either the ON pin or the SWOFF bit. Cleared by writing to Bit 4 of the ALERT_EN register.

When using a low value sense resistor for high current
measurement, the problem of parasitic series resistance may
arise. The lead resistance can be a substantial fraction of the
rated resistance, making the total resistance a function of lead
length. This problem can be avoided by using a Kelvin sense
connection. This type of connection separates the current path
through the resistor and the voltage drop across the resistor.
Figure 46 shows the correct way to connect the sense resistor
between the VCC pin and the SENSE pin of the ADM1176.
