DESCRIPTION
The S39421 is a fully integrated hot swap controller
intended for use on add-in cards that may be inserted into
or removed from powered-on host platforms. The S39421
performs a variety of tasks starting with the validation of
proper card insertion and the presence of “in-spec” voltages at the host platform interface.
Once power is switched on, the S39421 continues to
monitor the back-end power to the add-in card and the
host power supply. If either the 5V or 3.3V supplies drop
below Vtrip the S39421 will immediately assert the RESET outputs and power-down the add-in card.
In addition to the power control for the add-in card, the
S39421 provides status signals that can be employed by
the host and for the control of bus interface components.
• Supports 5 Volt, 3.3 Volt and Mixed Voltage
Cards
• Integrated 1K Bit E2PROM Memory
The on board E2PROM can be used as configuration
memory for the individual card or as general purpose
memory. The proprietary DataDownload mode provides
a more direct interface to the E2PROM for simplified
access by the add-in card’s controller or ASIC.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
CARD_V_VLD (pin13): CARD_V_VLD is an open drain
output, indicating the card side voltages are at or above
VTRIP.
PIN NAME [CompactPCI name] (pin #)
VCC12 (Pin 1): Supplies the 12 volts required for powering the high-side drivers.
SGNL_VLD (Pin 14): Signals valid (SGNL_VLD) is an
open drain active low signal indicating the card side power
is valid and that the reset signals have been released.
This signal can be used by the host as an indication that
the bus interface is active and all signals are valid.
DRVREN (Pin 2): Open drain, active low output indicates
the status of the 3 volt and 5 volt high side driver outputs
(VGATE5 and VGATE3). This signal may also be used as
a switching signal for the 12 volt supply.
HST_PWR (pin15): The host power (HST_PWR) input is
an active high input. It provides the host system active
control over the sequencing of the power up operation.
When low, the S39421 will hold the add-in card in reset
and block all power to the backend logic. When
HST_PWR is high the power sequencing will begin immediately and the reset outputs will be driven active after
tPURST.
ISLEW (Pin 3): Diode-connected NFET input may be
used to adjust the 250V/s default slew rate of the high-side
driver outputs. One quarter of the current injected into this
pin will be mirrored into each of the high-side driver
outputs.
VSEL (Pin 4): TTL level input used to determine which of
the Host power supply inputs will be monitored for valid
voltage and reset generation.
VSEL-Voltage
Select
Host Voltage
Monitored
Low
5 Volt or Mixed-Mode
High
3.3 Volt Only
HST_RST [PCI_RST#] (Pin 16): TTL level input used as
a reset input signal from the host interface. An active low
level longer than 40 nsec will cause a reset sequence to
be performed on the card. The power switching logic will
not be affected.
RESET (Pin 17): RESET is an active low open-drain
output. It should be tied high through a pull-up resistor
connected to VCC.
RESET (Pin 18): RESET is an active high open drain
(PFET) output. It should be tied low through a pull-down
resistor connected to ground.
DD (Pin 5): A high going edge on this input will place the
embedded memory into Data Download mode. This
mode allows the entire contents of the E2PROM array to
be read out of the device by selecting the device (CS high)
and providing clock cycles on the SK input. Data Download mode is exited when Chip Select is brought low.
CARD_3V (Pin 19): 3.3 volt card side supply input. This
input is monitored for power integrity. If it falls below the
3.3V sense threshold, the PWR_VLD signal is de-asserted and a RESET sequence initiates.
CS (Pin 6): E2PROM memory chip select, active high.
VGATE3 (Pin 20): Slew rate limited high side driver
output for the 3.3V external Power FET gate.
SK (Pin 7): E2PROM memory serial clock input.
VCC3 (Pin 21): 3.3 volt host side supply input. This input
is monitored for power integrity. If it falls below the 3.3V
sense threshold, the SGNL_VLD signal is de-asserted
and the high side drivers disabled.
DI (Pin 8): E2PROM memory data input.
DO (Pin 9): E2PROM memory data output.
PND2 [BD_SEL2#] (Pin 10): Active low TTL level input
with internal pull-up to VCC5. In conjunction with PND1,
this signal indicates proper card insertion. This pin must
be connected to ground on the host side of the connector.
PND1 and PND2 must be placed on opposite corners of
the connector and will preferably be staggered shorter
than the power connector pins. Board insertion is assumed when PND1 and PND2 are low.
CARD_5V (Pin 22): 5 volt card side supply input. This
input is monitored for power integrity. If it falls below the
5V sense threshold and the VSEL input is low, the
PWR_VLD signal is de-asserted and a RESET sequence
initiates.
VGATE5 (Pin 23): Slew rate limited high side driver
output for the 5V external Power FET gate.
PND1 [BD_SEL1#] (Pin 11): Active low TTL level input
with internal pull-up to VCC5. In conjunction with PND2,
this signal indicates proper card insertion.
VCC5 (Pin 24): Power to the S39421 and 5 volt host side
supply input. This input is monitored for power integrity. If
it falls below the 5V sense threshold and the VSEL input
is low, the SGNL_VLD signal is de-asserted and the high
side drivers disabled.
GND (Pin 12): Ground.

S39421
DEVICE OPERATION
RESET CONTROL
In order to provide positive control to an add-in-card’s
bakckend logic, the reset control function of the S39421
begins operation as soon as a voltage is applied to VCC5.
The conditions that affect the reset outputs are the VCC5,
VCC3, CARD_5V and CARD_3V input levels and the
state of the HST_RST input.
Power-Up Sequence
A sequencing operation is initiated by the physical insertion of the card into the platform’s connector. The
S39421’s VCC5 pin should be connected to the early
power pins of the connector. As soon as power is applied,
the S39421 will drive the reset outputs active and clamp
the VGATE outputs to ground.
Assume HST_RST has been released and is pulled high.
The S39421 reset ouputs will be valid as long as VCC5
is • 1V. If any one of VCC5, VCC3, CARD_5V or
CARD_3V input levels is below its respective Vtrip level
the reset outputs and CARD_V_VLD output will be driven
active. (In the case of the CARD_V_VLD output, the
active condition is low but its logical true condition is a
release of its open drain output pulled high by an external
pull-up) As soon as the VCC5, VCC3, CARD_5V and
CARD_3V inputs are above their Vtrip levels
CARD_V_VLD will be released and the internal tPURST
timer will be started. The reset outputs will be held active
until tPURST has expired and then be released.
Proper card insertion is insured by detecting the presence
of a low level on the pin detect (PND1, PND2) inputs,
which should be located on opposite ends of the bus
connector. These pin detect inputs have internal pull-up
resistors and the connection on the host platform side
must be connected directly to ground. [In a CompactPCI
application these are the BD_SEL# signals]. The PND
inputs have an internal noise filter nominally set at 150ms.
Once the proper card insertion has been detected, the
S39421 will check the status of the HST_PWR signal from
the host.
The HST_RST input is also used to control the reset
outputs. A high to low transition on HST_RST will initiate
a reset cycle with a duration of tPURST. The reset outputs
will remain active for a minimum period tPURST or for the
duration of HST_RST active low, whichever is longer. A
HST_RST activated reset will not affect the power sequencing logic.
Implementation of HST_PWR is optional; e.g. it can be
used to power down individual cards on the bus via
software control. If it is not used by the host system the
input must be held high in order for the S39421 to enable
power sequencing to the card.
Once these basic conditions are met the S39421 will
begin the power-up portion of the sequence. First, the
host platform supplies are checked for compliance.
Based on the state of the VSEL input the S39421 will
monitor the +5V and +3.3V supplies. If these are above
the VTRIP thresholds the sequencing next begins the
backend logic power-on operation.
During normal operation, the supply voltages are continuously monitored. If the cardside supplies fall below the
VTRIP levels the reset outputs will be driven active. If the
host platform supplies fall below VTRIP, the S39421 will
immediately assert the reset outputs and disable the
highside drivers.
The S39421 will drive the VGATE3 and VGATE5 outputs
to the 12V rail to turn on the external 3 volt and 5 volt power
FETs. The slew rate of these outputs defaults to 250V/s.
Different slew rates can be accommodated by either
adding an additional capacitor between the FET gate and
ground or by injecting current into the ISLEW input.
Power Configurations
The S39421 can be used in 5V-only, 3.3V-only and mixed
voltage systems. For mixed voltage systems, simply
connect the appropriate bus and card power inputs as
indicated. The VSEL pin should be grounded.
For systems with a single power supply, connect VCC5
and VCC3 together to the platform host early power line
(long pin power supply). Also connect CARD5V and
CARD3V together to the cardside power output of the
FET.
The state of VSEL determines the reset level that will be
used to signal CARD_V_VLD. For 3.3V systems, tie
VSEL to the supply; for 5V systems, tie VSEL to ground.

S39421
MEMORY OPERATION
The S39421 has a 1024-bit nonvolatile memory
intended for use with industry standard microprocessors.
The memory is organized as X16, seven 9-bit instructions
control the reading, writing and erase operations of the
device. The device operates on a single 3V or 5V supply
and will generate on chip, the high voltage required during
any write operation.
incrementing the address and outputting data so long as
CS stays high. If the highest address is reached, the
address counter will roll over to address 0000. CS going
low will reset the instruction register and any subsequent
read must be initiated in the normal manner of issuing the
command and address.
Write
After receiving a WRITE command, address and the data,
the CS (Chip Select) pin must be deselected for a minimum of 250ns (tCSMIN). The falling edge of CS will start
automatic write cycle to the memory location specified in
the instruction. The ready/busy status can be determined
by selecting the device and polling the DO pin.
Instructions, addresses, and write data are clocked into
the DI pin on the rising edge of the clock (SK). The DO pin
is normally in a high impedance state except when reading data from the device, or when checking the ready/busy
status after a write operation.
The ready/busy status can be determined after the start of
a write operation by selecting the memory and polling the
DO pin; DO low indicates that the write operation is not
completed, while DO high indicates that the device is
ready for the next instruction.
Page Write
Assume WEN has been issued. The host will then take CS
high, and begin clocking in the start bit, write command
and 6-bit address immediately followed by the first 16-bit
word of data to be written. The host can then continue
clocking in 16-bit words of data with each word to be
written to the next higher address. Internally the address
pointer is incremented after receiving each group of
sixteen clocks; however, once the address counter
reaches xxx x111 it will roll over to xx x000 with the next
clock. After the last bit is clocked in no internal write
operation will occur until CS is brought low.
The format for all instructions is: one start bit; two op code
bits and either six address or instruction bits.
Read
Upon receiving a READ command and an address
(clocked into the DI pin), the DO pin will come out of the
high impedance state and, will first output an initial dummy
zero bit, then begin shifting out the data addressed (MSB
first). The output data bits will toggle on the rising edge of
the SK clock and are stable after the specified time delay
(tPD0 or tPD1).
Erase
Upon receiving an ERASE command and address, the
CS (Chip Select) pin must be deselected for a minimum
of 250ns (tCSMIN). The falling edge of CS will start the auto
erase cycle of the selected memory location. The ready/
busy status can be determined by selecting the device
and polling the DO pin. Once cleared, the content of a
cleared location returns to a logical “1” state.
Continuous Read
This begins just like a standard read with the host issuing
a read instruction and clocking out the data byte [word]. If
the host then keeps CS high and continues generating
clocks on SK, the S39421 will output data from the next
higher address location. The S39421 will continue

FIGURE 7. WRITE INSTRUCTION TIMING
Erase/Write Enable and Disable
The memory powers up in the write disable state. Any
writing after power-up or after an EWDS (write disable)
instruction must first be preceded by the EWEN (write
enable) instruction. Once the write instruction is enabled,
it will remain enabled until power to the device is removed,
or the EWDS instruction is sent. The EWDS instruction
can be used to disable all S39421 write and clear instructions, and will prevent any accidental writing or clearing of
the device. Data can be read normally from the device
regardless of the write enable/disable status.
Write All
Upon receiving a WRAL command and data, the CS (Chip
Select) pin must be deselected for a minimum of 250ns
(tCSMIN). The falling edge of CS will start the self clocking
data write to all memory locations in the device. The
clocking of the SK pin is not necessary after the device has
entered the self clocking mode. The ready/busy status of
the S39421 can be determined by selecting the device
and polling the DO pin. It is not necessary for all memory
locations to be cleared before the WRAL command is
executed.

Data Download Mode
The Data Download mode is an alternative method of
accessing the E2PROM memory. Use of this mode allows
downloading the entire contents of the memory without
entering any commands. The DD mode is enabled after a
low to high transition on the DD pin, while continuing to
assert DD (this includes powering up the device with DD
tied high). Also, as a condition to enter this mode, the
device must not be in a state of reset. Once in Data
Download mode, the device will wait until Chip Select is
driven active. At this point, the device will output a dummy
‘0’ followed by the contents of location 0000. As long as
the SK line is toggled the S39421 will continue to output
the contents of sequential address locations. In this
manner, the configuration data that is loaded into an
interface device can be accessed in a simple manner
without requiring the logic of the interface chip to generate
the complex signals needed for the microwire interface.
Data Download mode is exited upon the first high to low
transition of the Chip Select input.

Data Download Control
There are a number of ways to implement the data
download mode of operation. For applications that do not
require use of this feature, simply ground the DD pin and
disable the function altogether.
In Figure 13, DD is tied to VCC through a pull-up resistor.
This will allow only a single download after power on. The
actual download function would not be enabled until
tPURST had expired and CS was brought high. As soon as
CS is deselected the DD mode will be disabled. The
primary disadvantage to this method is the lack of a reload
after brownout. The DD mode may or may not be initiated
depending on how low the power is cycled.

Slew Rate Control
The nominal slew rate for the VGATE3 and VGATE5
outputs is set at a default value of 250V per second, which
conforms to a number of standards including that for
Compact PCI. This slew rate helps limit current spike
transients as the bypass capacitors of the add-in card are
charged. The conditions for the default slew rate are:
ISLEW input is grounded; and the CVGATE capacitance is
less than or equal to 0.08µF.
The slew rate can be extended (made slower) by adding
capacitance to the VGATE outputs. In this case it should
be assumed the ISLEW input is grounded. The VGATE
outputs can drive up to 20µA typically, so the slew rate may
be calculated as 20µA ÷ CVGATE (not exceeding 250V/s).
Refer to Graph 1 shown below.

The slew rate can be increased (made faster) by injecting
current into the ISLEW input. One quarter of the current
injected into ISLEW will be mirrored out of the VGATE
drivers. The resulting slew rate may be calculated as
ISLEW ÷ 4xCVGATE (not less than 250V/s). Example slew
rates are plotted to illustrate the effects of capacitance on
the VGATE output in Graph 2. The reason for the flat
portion of the graph is that the internal slew rate control
operates in parallel to add as much as 20µA (typically) to
help keep the SR at 250V/s.

Using the S39421 as the Primary Control Circuit
on a VME Live Insertion Card
High availability is a key feature of many types of systems
today. Whether the system is a central office switch, a
private branch exchange or a server it is important the
system stay up and running while adding new services
(add-in cards) or replacing faulty boards. Therefore, a
means for inserting and removing cards while the entire
system is powered-on (live) is a necessity.
viewed as two operations: the add-in card/backend logic
sequencing and the backplane/add-in card interface sequencing.
Add-in Card/Backend Logic Sequencing
The process of electrical insertion begins with the contact
of special ground and voltage pins. These are longer than
the signal and power pins and they are physically located
at opposite ends of the connector. The voltage pins are
labeled Vpc (pre-charge Voltage), this is the backplane’s
5 volt supply and the intent is for this voltage to be used
to power the sequencing circuitry, any ASICs that interface to the bus and to pre-charge the ‘bus-side’ lines of the
signal transceivers.
Live insertion poses a number of challenges for the addin card designer. For live insertion to be trouble free we
first need to prevent damage to components on the addin card due to improper supply sequencing. Secondly,
voltage drop on the system power busses must be prevented in order to avoid unwanted system reset condition.
Lastly, the integrity of the system’s signals needs to be
maintained when additional circuitry is connected to the
bus.
The PC board should be laid out so that ground is routed
to all circuits, i.e. grounds should not be linked via the PCB
connector. Vpc should be tied directly to the VCC5 pin on
the S39421 and the device will immediately begin driving
its backend circuit control signals [SGNL_VLD,
CARD_V_VLD, RESET and RESET] and it will place the
voltage ramp control signals [VGATE3, VGATE5 and
DRVREN] in the off state.
Based upon the proposed Live Insertion System Requirements the S39421 is an ideal candidate as the add-in
card’s live insertion controller.
Sequencing the Voltages
The proposed live insertion specification (see references)
outlines 26 operational steps during the insertion of a
card. These are broken down into two major categories;
the “Insertion Process” and the “Typical Board Recognition Process.”
The next step is for the controller to recognize that the
board is properly seated in the connector. VME has an
optional feature that lends itself ideally to this step of the
operation; the ejector handles can be used to activate a
switch when they are fully rotated and locked. Switch
closure can be used as the PND1 and PND2 inputs on the
S39421. The pull-up resistor used for this implementation
must be tied to Vpc because the backend voltages will not
yet have been switched on by the S39421.
The first 6 steps have to do with the insertion of the card
and sequencing the discharge of any voltage potentials
so that by the time the board is ready to make contact with
the backplane no ESD discharges will occur. Even though
the balance of the actions tend to overlap they can be

S39421
The board’s pins should now be mated with the backplane
connector which in turn will bring the host LI/I* and
RESET* signals to the S39421. These signals should be
tied to the device’s HST_PWR and HST_RST inputs
respectively. Whenever HST_PWR is low the outputs
controlling the backend power on sequencing will be
inhibited; it does not impact the reset outputs or reset
timer. When low, the HST_RST input will force the reset
outputs active; once it is released the reset timer will be
started and it will keep the reset outputs active for tPURST.
At the same time the signal pins are making contact, the
backend voltages are applied to the card (3.3V, 5V, +12V
and -12V on short pins), but, they are blocked by FETs
under the control of the S39421 (see figure 3 ). Depending
upon the state of the VSEL pin, the S39421 will monitor
either the bussed +5V only, the bussed +3.3V only or both
the bussed +5V and +3.3V. Once the S39421 has determined these supply voltages are at or above Vtrip, (and LI/
I* has released HST_PWR) it will release the VGATE
outputs and effectively turn them on at a rate equivalent
to 250V/second. At the same time it will force DRVREN
active thus providing power to the backend circuits.

ally helps us narrow this down quickly by recommending
the use of ABTE logic. This is available from at least two
large manufacturers of semiconductors.
The S39421 will now begin monitoring the backend circuit
voltages and when they are at or above Vtrip the reset
timer will be released to begin the time out period and
CARD_V_VLD will be released. After tPURST has expired, the reset outputs will be released and SGNL_VLD
will be driven active. The SGNL_VLD signal can be tied to
the host LI/O* signal pin to indicate the card has been fully
powered, cleanly reset and is ready for action.
Avoidance of Bus Conflicts
Bus conflicts arise when two or more interface circuits
attempt to drive the bus simultaneously with one circuit
driving high and the other driving low. The device trying to
drive low will most likely not incur damage. But the device
trying to drive high will be dropping 5Volts on its output at
up to 120mA current. Even for very short periods of time
the high temperatures this will generate can either destroy
the device or adversely affect the long-term reliability of
the device. The best solution is to insure the transceiver’s
enable input is actively driven before the transceiver is
powered-on. Using one of the reset outputs (as shown in
figure 27) as a gating signal to a single enable input style
transceiver is one solution. With a dual enable transceiver
one of the reset outputs can be tied directly to appropriate
enable input.
Backplane/Add-in Card Sequencing
A more complicated problem than the sequencing shown
above is the signal bus interface. Inserting unpowered
circuits onto the signal bus could lead to a situation of
damaging components and much more likely disrupting
the signals on the backplane. This will involve a rigorous
evaluation and selection process by the design engineer
to determine the best solution for the individual application. However, we can examine a product family that
should resolve most of the issues the designer might
encounter. The proposed VME Live Insertion spec actu-

the time the card is ready to make contact with the
backplane connector the board is electrically isolated
from the frame.
Pre-bias
The switching capacitance of the individual signal lines at
the interface must be charged to the instantaneous voltage on the corresponding bus line. These currents distort
the signal that is being transmitted at that instant. To
address this issue the proposed VME Live Insertion Spec
states: “All VME system drivers and receivers SHALL be
pre-biased to 1.7 =/-0.2 Vdc with a resistive network
powered by the pre-charge +5V. . . before the board signal
pins contact the backplane VME64 bus connector(s).”
The ABTE logic addresses this issue head-on by providing a separate VCCBias pin that is internally connected to
a pre-charge resistor network.
The first pins of the connector to make contact with the
backplane are ground and Vpc (pre-charge VCC). Vpc
should be tied directly to the S39421 and the transceiver
BiasVcc input. Once the S39421 detects the presence of
Vpc it will begin driving the reset outputs active, shut off all
the control signals to the power FETs and begin driving
the LI/O* low. The injector/ejector levers will close the
switches grounding the PND inputs allowing the S39421
to check the state of the VSEL pin and determine what bus
voltages should be monitored. If the bus voltages are at
or greater than Vtrip AND LI/I* has been released the
S39421 will turn on the high side driver outputs VGATE3
and VGATE5 and the DRVREN output.
CARD REMOVAL
A clean transition for card removal can be performed
either by the opening of the injector/ejector levers which
in turn opens the switches that force the PND inputs to
ground or by the host driving LI/I* low. Both actions will tell
the S39421 to disable the high side drivers and force the
reset outputs active.
The voltages to the backend logic are applied with a
nominal slew rate of VGATE3 and VGATE5 set at 250V/
sec. The backend voltages should also be fed back to the
S39421 and as soon as they are at or above their Vtrip
level, the CARD_V_VLD will be released. If the host has
released its RESET input and LI/I* input, the S39421 will
release the timer for its reset circuit. After tPURST the
reset outputs to the backend logic will be released and the
SGNL_VLD output will be driven active [backplane signal
LI/O]. This is the final step in activating a board for live
insertion.
RECAP
As the board is first inserted into the backplane voltage
potentials on are shunted to ground thru the use of various
bleed resistors and physical contact with the chassis
frame. These are make then break processes so that by
