APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
LTC4306
16
Assume in Figure 5 that the total parasitic bus capacitance
on SDA1 due to trace and device capacitance is 100pF. To
ensure that the boost currents are active during rising
edges, the pull-up resistor must be strong enough to
cause the SDA1 pin voltage to rise at a rate of 0.8V/µs as
the pin voltage is rising above 0.8V. The equation is:

up resistor smaller (i.e., stronger pull-up) than 27.1k, so
a 10k resistor works fine.
ALERT, READY and GPIO Component Selection
The pull-up resistors on the ALERT and READY pins must
provide a maximum pull-up current of 3mA, so that the
LTC4306 is capable of holding the pin at logic low voltages
below 0.4V. When choosing LEDs to be driven by the
LTC4306’s GPIO pins, make sure that the required LED
sinking current is less than 5mA, and add a current-
limiting resistor in series with the LED.
Level Shifting Considerations
In the design example of Figure 5, the LTC4306 V
voltage is less than or equal to both of the downstream bus
pull-up voltages, so buses 1 and 4 can be active at the
same time. Likewise, the rise time accelerators can be
turned on for the downstream buses, but must never be
activated on SCLIN and SDAIN, because doing so would
result in significant current flow from V
rising edges.
Other Application Circuits
Figure 6 illustrates how the LTC4306 can be used to
expand the number of devices in a system by using nested
addressing. Each I/O card contains a temperature sensor

having device address 1001 000. If the four I/O cards were
plugged directly into the backplane, the four sensors
would require four unique addresses. However, if masters
use the LTC4306 in multiplexer mode, where only one
downstream channel is connected at a time, then each
I/O card can have a device with address 1001 000 and no
problems will occur.
Figures 7 and 8 show two different methods for hot-
swapping I/O cards onto a live two-wire bus using the
LTC4306. The circuitry of Figure 7 consists of an LTC4306
residing on the edge of an I/O card having four separate
downstream buses. Connect a 200k resistor to ground
from the ENABLE pin and make the ENABLE pin the
shortest pin on the connector, so that the ENABLE pin
remains at a constant logic low while all other pins are
connecting. This ensures that the LTC4306 remains in its
default high impedance state and ignores connection
transients on its SDAIN and SCLIN pins until they have
established solid contact with the backplane 2-wire bus. In
addition, make sure that the ALERT connector pin is
shorter than the V
contact with the I/O card pull-up supply pin and powers
the pull-up resistors on ALERT1–ALERT4 before ALERT
makes contact.
Figure 8 illustrates an alternate SDA and SCL hot-swap-
ping technique, where the LTC4306 is located on the
backplane and an I/O card plugs into downstream channel
4. Before plugging and unplugging the I/O card, make sure
that channel 4’s downstream switch is open, so that it does
not disturb any 2-wire transaction that may be occurring
at the moment of connection/disconnection. Note that
pull-up resistor, R17, on ALERT4 should be located on the
backplane and not the I/O card to ensure proper operation
of the LTC4306 when the I/O card is not present. The pull-
up resistors on SCL4 and SDA4, R15 and R16 respec-
tively, may be located on the I/O card, provided that
downstream bus 4 is never activated when the I/O card is
not present. Otherwise, locate R15 and R16 on the
backplane.
