The IXHQ100 is a live insertion and removal hot swap
controller with a built-in power noise filter. It incorporates all the active circuitry necessary to protect circuit
boards during live insertion or removal (insertion or
removal when the system power is active). Additionally,
the IXHQ100 incorporates two unique features: power
active filter for powerline noise suppression and power
auto-disconnect detector which eliminates the need of
additional staggered pins.
The IXHQ100 shunt regulator ensures a wide operating
voltage range (with the external MOSFET breakdown
voltage as limit). The active power filter reduces power
source output impedance, producing "clean" load
power. The IXHQ100 allows continuous load current
rise adjustments, presettable maximum current limits,
and user selectable fault indication turn off times for
resetting µPs and other synchronous board level systems. For added flexibility, GSNSin pin is available to
implement either circuit board insertion/removal detection or ground detection.
Applications

DESCRIPTION
The invert input controls GSNSin’s polarity. When
invert input is high compared to AGND, then GSNSin
low indicates an insertion/removal event. When invert
input is low, then GSNSin high indicates an
insertion/removal event.
The INV pin controls the polarity sense of this input.
A 3uA internal pull-up current source causes logic
high when there is no connection at this pin. With INV
low or connected to AGND, a GSNSin low (or
connected to AGND) will keep RSTout and GATE
low, and the external power switch, Q1, off. A
disconnected GSNSin pin or when Vcc is applied to it
will allow normal operation
Positive power-supply voltage input.
This pin serves to control the enabling of the shunt
circuit. When the pin is high compared to AGND, then
the shunt regulator is in off position. A low level at
this pin activates the shunt regulator.
The output of the power active filter tracks this pin.
Adding an external RC network matching the input
noise with respect to the 3db point of the filter could
reduce the noise to a minimum.
This pin sets the drop out MOSFET voltage across the
active filter.
This input controls the current slope during power up
and controls inrush currents. Adding external
capacitors to this pin allow regulation and adjustment
of the rate of the current slope.
The OFFTM pin sets the delay time between powerdown and restart of IXHQ100. Delay time can be
increased by adding external capacitors to this pin.
The IXHQ100 system zero reference pin.

the external load, Vload, is zero. As VSLOPE rises,
its rate of increase determined by the value of
the external capacitor, C8 (figure1), and the
value of the internal current source, I5. VGATE's
rate of increase follows VSLOPE. As soon as VGATE
exceeds VthQ1 (figure 1) of the external power
MOSFET, drain current IdQ1 starts to flow. The
rate of increase of IdQ1 is proportional to the rate
of increase of VSLOPE, and is independent of the
size of C5 , the total filter capacitance of the
load. Note that this rate, which is directly
proportional to C7 and inversely proportional to
C8, could be adjusted . Similarly the Toff-delay
can be adjusted and is directly proportional to
the size of C7.
DEVICE OPERA
TION*
OPERATION*
A hot swap operation involves removal and
reinsertion of a device while the system using
it remains in operation. Such an operation
could cause external capacitors to draw currents high enough to disturb system operations
or even cause permanent damage to both the
device and the system.
The IXHQ100 is designed to prevent any disturbances or damage during such occurrences,
allowing the circuit board to be safely inserted
and removed from a live backplane. Capable of
operating under three modes, the chip also acts
as a power active noise filter and an auto-detect
circuit.
Normal Operation
With continuous –Vin applied, the IXHQ100
acts as an active power filter by modulating the
voltage drop across the external Power
MOSFET Vds so that any noise on –Vin is
cancelled by Vds.
The direct connection of IXHQ 100’s AGND pin
to –Vin allows the Vdrop (internally set to ~750mV)
to set the ~90% of the maximum peak noise
voltage reject by the IXHQ100. The internal
Vdrop setting of ~750 mV allows 1.35 Vpp of
noise rejection. Graph on page 5 illustrates the
level of ripple attenuation during normal
conditions. Notice that the noise rejection is very
high (~60db) between 400Hz to 40KHz, which is
optimal for most hot swap applications.
Inser
tion Pr
ocess
Insertion
Process
As the circuit board is inserted into the
backplane, physical connections should be
made to ground to discharge any electrostatic
voltage. The insertion process begins when
power and ground are supplied to the board
through pins on the blackplane.
Once power is applied, the IXHQ100 starts up
but does not immediately apply power to the
output load. The internal Power Up Reset logic
(see in Figure 2) turns on for 10 µs prior to any
other logic. This pulse goes through two NOR
gates and resets SRFF1 Flip Flop. Once SRFF1
is reset, the current source, I6, charges the
OFFTM pin at a rate proportional to the size of
the external capacitor, C7 (fig 1). During the time
the OFFTM pin is ramping from 0V to Vrf (~5V),
which is the Toff-delay, COMP1 keeps N3 ON so
VSLOPE stays at 0V. After Toff-delay, VOFFTMecomes
greater than Vrf, and COMP1 goes low, driving
N3 to off state. I5 now starts to charge C1,
ramping +ve i/p of OA4. OA4 buffers VSLOPE and
sets the GATE output ramp.
Flip-flop setting and resetting
The flip-flop, SRFF1 (fig 2), used in the IXHQ100,
is reset dominant. Hence when both S and R
inputs are driven high, the SRFF1 remains
reset. Under normal operation, S input becomes
high whenever OR1 output is high and R input
is low. In turn, OR1 goes high if any one of the
outputs of EXOR1, or COMP2, or COMP3
goes high.
It is assumed that when the circuit board is first
inserted into the backplane, the voltage across
EXOR1 output goes high if it detects the loss of
either Gnd or -Vin. If INV input is connected to

Vcc, then GSNSin pin can be used to detect
the presence or absence of -Vin. If INV is
connected to AGND, then GSNSin pin can be
used to detect the presence or absence of
Gnd.
with a high applied to its R input. This act will
then turn off both N5 and N4 and allow OFFTM
pin to initiate its positive ramp as a result of I6
charging the capacitors C7 (Figure 1) and C2
(Figure 2) connected to the OFFTM pin.
COMP2 output goes high whenever an
overcurrent or a short circuit condition is
detected. The inverting input to COMP2 is
connected to the VCL output pin which is
internally set at approximately 120mV. As
shown in Figure 1, one side of R4 is in series
with the source of Q1, the drain output of which
drives the load connected to J8. The return
side of R4 is connected to -Vin through J1. For
R4 = 0.02Ω, Q1 source currents greater than
6A will turn on COMP2 and will be considered
either an overcurrent or short circuit event.
Restar
Restartt Operation
The IXHQ100 will automatically attempt to
restart once a disconnection and reconnection
is detected. Either PUR or COMP4 going high
will reset SRFF1 during normal operation of
the IXHQ100 (fig 2). Resetting SRFF1 turns off
N4 and N5, and the OFFTM pin ramps up in
response. During this ramp, as long as VOFFTM
is less than Vrf=~4.5V, COMP1 will keep N3 on
and C1 (Figure 2) and C8 (Figure 1) discharged.
After Toff-delay, VOFFTM is at Vrf, COMP1 output
then goes low, turning off N3. Now the SLOPE
pin is free to ramp up as a result of I5 charging
C1 (Figure 2) and C8 (Figure 1). The two unitygain buffers, OA4 and OA5, reflect VSLOPE at the
GATE output pin during this positive ramp. As
soon as VGATE overcomes the VQ1th, normal
operation is resumed.
COMP3 goes high whenever the voltage at
OUTsns with respect to AGND becomes less
than 0.1*VCL(approximately 12mV). This can
only occur if either the current drawn by the driven
load is less than 600mA (12mV/.02) or -VIN is
disconnected. This Auto-Disconnect technique
automatically detects load disconnections
without needing additional sensors.
Fault Operation
When the output load current is such that the
voltage drop across the current sense resistor
between the SOURCE pin and the AGND
exceeds VCL (internally set to ~120 mv), the
GATE output is driven low to turn off the external
Power MOSFET connected between the load
and -Vin. An external capacitor connected
between OFFTM pin and AGND pin determines
the off time Toff-delay. IXHQ100 will restart the turn
on sequence of the external Power MOSFET
with a load voltage slope determined by the
size of the external capacitor that is connected
to the SLOPE pin.
Thus the SRFF1 will reset when one of the
following events occur:
1. Loss of AGND or -Vin.
2. Overcurrent or short circuit.
3. Auto-Disconnection
A valid S input into SRFF1 will immediately
drive its output, Q1, to high and will turn on both
N5 and N4. N5, an open drain output, will result
in RSTout being driven low. A current limiting
resistor, R1, in series with a 4N35 LED
connected to VDD (fig 1) can be used to
generate an isolated reset pulse. Turning on
N4 will discharge C7 and the internal 10pF
capacitor (fig 2). As soon as VOFFTM drops below
V
=~0.9V, COMP4 in Figure 2 will turn on
DROP
through NOR1 and NOR2, and resets SRFF1

Prevention
When the IXHQ100 detects a short in the load,
a restart is automatically initiated. The GOUT
drops to zero and waits one Toff-delay before
SLOPE ramps up. As before, normal operation
is resumed.
