The LTC®4300 series hot swappable 2-wire bus buffers
allow I/O card insertion into a live backplane without corruption 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.

Increases Fanout
Prevents SDA and SCL Corruption During Live
Board Insertion and Removal from Backplane
Isolates Input SDA and SCL Lines from Output
Compatible with I2CTM, I2C Fast Mode and SMBus
Standards (Up to 400kHz Operation)
Small MSOP 8-Pin Package
Low ICC Chip Disable: <1µA (LTC4300-1)
READY Open Drain Output (LTC4300-1)
1V Precharge on all SDA and SCL Lines
Supports Clock Stretching, Arbitration and
Synchronization
5V to 3.3V Level Translation (LTC4300-2)
High Impedance SDA, SCL Pins for VCC = 0V
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 VCC. 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, VCC2, 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 contraints 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.

ENABLE/VCC2 (Pin 1): Chip Enable Pin/Card Supply Voltage. For the LTC4300-1, this is a digital CMOS threshold
input pin. Grounding this pin puts the part in a low current
(<1µA) mode. It also disables the rise-time accelerators,
disables the bus precharge circuitry, drives READY low,
isolates SDAIN from SDAOUT and isolates SCLIN from
SCLOUT. Drive ENABLE all the way to VCC for normal
operation. Connect ENABLE to VCC if this feature is not
being used. For the LTC4300-2, this is the supply voltage
for the devices on the card I2C busses. Connect pull-up
resistors from SDAOUT and SCLOUT to this pin. Place a
bypass capacitor of at least 0.01µF close to this pin for best
results.
SCLOUT (Pin 2): Serial Clock Output. Connect this pin to
the SCL bus on the card. See Figures 3 and 4 for bus pullup resistance and capacitance requirements.

SCL bus on the backplane. See Figures 3 and 4 for bus pullup resistance and capacitance requirements.
GND (Pin 4): Ground. Connect this pin to a ground plane
for best results.
READY/ACC (Pin 5): Connection Flag/Rise-Time Accelerator Control. For the LTC4300-1, this is an open-drain
NMOS output which pulls low when either ENABLE is low
or the start-up sequence described in the Operation section has not been completed. READY goes high when
ENABLE is high and start-up is complete. Connect a 10k
resistor from this pin to VCC to provide the pull up. For the
LTC4300-2, this is a CMOS threshold digital input pin that
enables and disables the rise-time accelerators on all four
SDA and SCL pins. Drive ACC all the way to the VCC2 supply
voltage to enable all four accelerators; drive ACC to ground
to turn them off.

OPERATIO
Start-Up
When the LTC4300 first receives power on its VCC pin,
either during power-up or during hot swapping, it starts in
an undervoltage lockout (UVLO) state, ignoring any activity on the SDA and SCL pins until VCC rises above 2.5V. For
the LTC4300-2, the part also waits for VCC2 to rise above
2V. This ensures that the part does not try to function until
it has enough voltage to do so.
During this time, the 1V precharge circuitry is also active
and forces 1V through 100k nominal resistors to the SDA
and SCL pins. Because the I/O card is being plugged into
a live backplane, the voltage on the backplane SDA and SCL
busses may be anywhere between 0V and VCC. Precharging
the SCL and SDA pins to 1V minimizes the worst-case
voltage differential these pins will see at the moment of connection, therefore minimizing the amount of disturbance
caused by the I/O card.
Once the LTC4300 comes out of UVLO, it assumes that
SDAIN and SCLIN have been hot swapped into a live
system and that SDAOUT and SCLOUT are being powered
up at the same time as itself. Therefore, it looks for either
a stop bit or bus idle condition on the backplane side to
indicate the completion of a data transaction. When either
one occurs, the part also verifies that both the SDAOUT
and SCLOUT voltages are high. When all of these conditions are met, the input-to-output connection circuitry is
activated, joining the SDA and SCL busses on the I/O card
with those on the backplane.
Connection Circuitry
Once the connection circuitry is activated, the functionality of the SDAIN and SDAOUT pins is identical. A low forced
on either pin at any time results in both pin voltages being
low. SDAIN and SDAOUT enter a logic high state only when
all devices on both SDAIN and SDAOUT force a high. The
same is true for SCLIN and SCLOUT. This important feature ensures that clock stretching, clock arbitration and the
acknowledge protocol always work, regardless of how the
devices in the system are tied to the LTC4300.
Another key feature of the connection circuitry is that it
provides bidirectional buffering, keeping the backplane
and card capacitances isolated. Because of this isolation,
the waveforms on the backplane busses look slightly
different than the corresponding card bus waveforms, as
described here.
Input to Output Offset Voltage
When a logic low voltage, VLOW1, is driven on any of the
LTC4300’s data or clock pins, the LTC4300 regulates the
voltage on the other side of the chip (call it VLOW2) to a
slightly higher voltage, as directed by the following
equation:
VLOW2 = VLOW1 + 50mV + (VCC/R) • 100
where R is the bus pull-up resistance in ohms. For example, if a device is forcing SDAOUT to 10mV and if
VCC = 3.3V and the pull-up resistor R on SDAIN is 10k, then
the voltage on SDAIN = 10mV + 50mV + (3.3/10000) • 100
= 93mV. See the Typical Performance Characteristics
section for curves showing the offset voltage as a function
of VCC and R.
Propagation Delays
During a rising edge, the rise-time on each side is determined by the combined pull-up current of the LTC4300
boost current and the bus resistor and the equivalent
capacitance on the line. If the pull-up currents are the
same, a difference in rise-time occurs which is directly
proportional to the difference in capacitance between the
two sides. This effect is displayed in Figure 1 for VCC = 3.3V
and a 10k pull-up resistor on each side (50pF on one side
and 150pF on the other). Since the output side has less
capacitance than the input, it rises faster and the effective
tPLH is negative.
There is a finite propagation delay, tPHL, through the
connection circuitry for falling waveforms. Figure 2 shows
the falling edge waveforms for the same VCC, pull-up
resistors and equivalent capacitance conditions as used in
Figure 1. An external NMOS device pulls down the voltage
on the side with 150pF capacitance; the LTC4300 pulls
down the voltage on the opposite side, with a delay of
55ns. This delay is always positive and is a function of
supply voltage, temperature and the pull-up resistors and
equivalent bus capacitances on both sides of the bus. The
Typical Performance Characteristics section shows tPHL
sn430012 430012fs
8
LTC4300-1/LTC4300-2
U
OPERATIO
as a function of temperature and voltage for 10k pull-up
resistors and 100pF equivalent capacitance on both sides
of the part. By comparison with Figure 2, the VCC = 3.3V
curve shows that increasing the capacitance from 50pF to
150pF results in a tPHL increase from 55ns to 75ns. Larger
output capacitances translate to longer delays (up to
150ns). Users must quantify the difference in propagation
times for a rising edge vs a falling edge in their systems
and adjust setup and hold times accordingly.
Rise-Time Accelerators
Once connection has been established, rise-time accelerator circuits on all four SDA and SCL pins are activated.
These allow the user to choose weaker DC pull-up currents
on the bus, reducing power consumption while still meeting system rise-time requirements. During positive bus
transitions, the LTC4300 switches in 2mA of current to
quickly slew the SDA and SCL lines once their DC voltages
exceed 0.6V. Using a general rule of 20pF of capacitance
for every device on the bus (10pF for the device and 10pF
for interconnect), choose a pull-up current so that the bus
will rise on its own at a rate of at least 1.25V/µs to
guarantee activation of the accelerators.
For example, assume an SMBus system with VCC = 3V, a
10k pull-up resistor and equivalent bus capacitance of
200pF. The rise-time of an SMBus system is calculated
from (VIL(MAX) – 0.15V) to (VIH(MIN) + 0.15V), or 0.65V to
2.25V. It takes an RC circuit 0.92 time constants to
traverse this voltage for a 3V supply; in this case, 0.92 •
(10k • 200pF) = 1.85µs. Thus, the system exceeds the
maximum allowed rise-time of 1µs by 85%. However,
using the rise-time accelerators, which are activated at a

DC threshold of below 0.65V, the worst-case rise-time is:
(2.25V – 0.65V) • 200pF/1mA = 320ns, which meets the
1µs rise-time requirement.
READY Digital Output (LTC4300-1)
This pin provides a digital flag which is low when either
ENABLE is low or the start-up sequence described earlier
in this section has not been completed. READY goes high
when ENABLE is high and start-up is complete. The pin is
driven by an open drain pull-down capable of sinking 3mA
while holding 0.4V on the pin. Connect a resistor of 10k to
VCC to provide the pull-up. This feature is available for the
LTC4300-1 only.
ENABLE Low Current Disable (LTC4300-1)
Grounding the ENABLE pin disconnects the backplane
side from the card side, disables the rise-time accelerators, drives READY low, disables the bus precharge circuitry and puts the part in a near-zero current state. When
the pin voltage is driven all the way to VCC, the part waits
for data transactions on both the backplane and card sides
to be complete (as described in the Start-Up section)
before reconnecting the two sides. This feature is available
for the LTC4300-1 only.
ACC Boost Current Enable (LTC4300-2)
Users having lightly loaded systems may wish to disable
the rise-time accelerators. Driving this pin to ground turns
off the rise-time accelerators on all four SDA and SCL pins.
Driving this pin to the VCC2 voltage enables normal operation of the rise-time accelerators, as described in the RiseTime Accelerators section above. This feature is available
for the LTC4300-2 only.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Resistor Pull-Up Value Selection
The system pull-up resistors must be strong enough to
provide a positive slew rate of 1.25V/µs on the SDA and
SCL pins, in order to activate the boost pull-up currents
during rising edges. Choose maximum resistor value R
using the formula:
R ≤ (VCC(MIN) – 0.6) (800,000) / C
where R is the pull-up resistor value in ohms, VCC(MIN) is
the minimum VCC voltage and C is the equivalent bus
capacitance in picofarads (pF).
In addition, regardless of the bus capacitance, always
choose R ≤ 16k for VCC = 5.5V maximum, R ≤ 24k for
VCC␣ =␣ 3.6V maximum. The start-up circuitry requires logic
high voltages on SDAOUT and SCLOUT to connect the
backplane to the card, and these pull-up values are needed
to overcome the precharge voltage. See the curves in
Figures 3 and 4 for guidance in resistor pull-up selection.
Minimum SDA and SCL Capacitance Requirements
The LTC4300 I/O connection circuitry requires a minimum
capacitance loading on the SDA and SCL pins in order to
function properly. The value of this capacitance is a
function of VCC and the bus pull-up resistance. Estimate
the bus capacitance on both the backplane and the card
data and clock busses, and refer to Figures 3 and 4 to
choose appropriate pull-up resistor values. Note from the
figures that 5V systems must have at least 47pF capacitance on their busses and 3.3V systems must have at least
22pF capacitance for proper operation of the LTC4300. For
applications with less capacitance, add a capacitor to
ground to ensure these minimum capacitance conditions.
Hot Swapping and Capacitance Buffering Application
Figures 5 through 8 illustrate the usage of the LTC4300 in
applications that take advantage of both its hot swapping
and capacitance buffering features. In all of these applications, note that if the I/O cards were plugged directly into
the backplane, all of the backplane and card capacitances
would add directly together, making rise- and fall-time
requirements difficult to meet. Placing a LTC4300 on the
edge of each card, however, isolates the card capacitance
from the backplane. For a given I/O card, the LTC4300 drives
the capacitance of everything on the card and the backplane
must drive only the capacitance of the LTC4300, which is
less than 10pF.
Figure 5 shows the LTC4300-1 in a CompactPCI TM configuration. Connect V CC to the output of one of the
CompactPCI power supply hot swap circuits and connect
ENABLE to the short “board enable” pin. VCC is monitored
by a filtered UVLO circuit. With the VCC voltage powering
up after all other pins have established connection, the
UVLO circuit ensures that the backplane and card data and
clock busses are not connected until the transients asso20

ciated with hot swapping have settled. Owing to their small
capacitance, the SDAIN and SCLIN pins cause minimal disturbance on the backplane busses when they make contact with the connector.
Figure 6 shows the LTC4300-2 in a CompactPCI configuration. The LTC4300-2 receives its VCC voltage from one
of the long “early power” pins. Because this power is not
switched, add a 5Ω to 10Ω resistor between the VCC pins
of the connector and the LTC4300-2, as shown in the
figure. In addition, make sure that the VCC bypassing on
the backplane is large compared to the 0.01µF bypass
capacitor on the card. Establishing early power VCC ensures that the 1V precharge voltage is present at the
SDAIN and SCLIN pins before they make contact. Connect
VCC2 to the output of one of the CompactPCI power supply
hot swap circuits. VCC2 is monitored by a filtered UVLO
circuit. With the VCC2 voltage powering up after all other
pins have established connection, the UVLO circuit ensures that the backplane and card data and clock busses
are not connected until the transients associated with hot
swapping have settled.
Figure 7 shows the LTC4300-1 in a PCI application, where
all of the pins have the same length. In this case, connect
an RC series circuit on the I/O card between VCC and
ENABLE. An RC product of 10ms provides a filter to
prevent the LTC4300-1 from becoming activated until the
transients associated with hot swapping have settled.
Figure 8 shows the LTC4300-2 in an application where the
user has a custom connector with pins of three different
lengths available. Making VCC2 the shortest pin ensures
that all other pins are firmly connected before VCC2
receives any voltage. A filtered UVLO circuit on VCC2
ensures that the VCC2 pin is firmly connected before the
LTC4300-2 connects the backplane to the card.
Repeater/Bus Extender Application
Users who wish to connect two 2-wire systems separated
by a distance can do so by connecting two LTC4300-1s
back-to-back, as shown in Figure 9. The I2C specification
allows for 400pF maximum bus capacitance, severely
limiting the length of the bus. The SMBus specification
places no restriction on bus capacitance, but the limited
impedances of devices connected to the bus require
systems to remain small if rise- and fall-time specifications are to be met. The strong pull-up and pull-down
impedances of the LTC4300-1 are capable of meeting riseand fall-time specifications for one nanofarad of capacitance, thus allowing much more interconnect distance. In
this situation, the differential ground voltage between the
two systems may limit the allowed distance, because a
valid logic low voltage with respect to the ground at one
end of the system may violate the allowed VOL specification with respect to the ground at the other end. In
addition, the connection circuitry offset voltages of the
back-to-back LTC4300-1s add together, directly contributing to the same problem.
Systems with Disparate Supply Voltages (LTC4300-1)
In large 2-wire systems, the VCC voltages seen by devices
at various points in the system can differ by a few hundred
millivolts or more. This situation is well modelled by a
series resistor in the VCC line, as shown in Figure 10. For
proper operation of the LTC4300-1, make sure that
VCC(BUS) ≥ VCC(LTC4300) – 0.5V.
5V to 3.3V Level Translator and Power Supply
Redundancy (LTC4300-2)
Systems requiring different supply voltages for the
backplane side and the card side can use the LTC4300-2,
as shown in Figure 11. The pull-up resistors on the card
side connect from SDAOUT to SCLOUT to VCC2, and those
on the backplane side connect from SDAIN and SCLIN to
VCC. The LTC4300-2 functions for voltages ranging from
2.7V to 5.5V on both VCC and VCC2. There is no constraint
on the voltage magnitudes of VCC and VCC2 with respect to
each other.
This application also provides power supply redundancy.
If either the VCC or VCC2 voltage falls below its UVLO
threshold, the LTC4300-2 disconnects the backplane from
the card, so that the side that is still powered can continue
to function.
