When the pin voltage is low, the part waits for data transactions on both the backplane and card sides to be 0.5V/DIV complete (as described in the Start-Up section) before 4301 F02 20ns/DIV reconnecting the two sides.

In most applications the LTC4301L will be used with a staggered connector where V Figure 3 illustrates applications of the LTC4301L with CC and GND will be long pins. SDA and SCL are medium length pins to ensure that the different bus pull-up and VCC voltages, demonstrating its V ability to recognize and buffer bus data levels that are CC and GND pins make contact first. This will allow the precharge circuitry to be activated on SDA and SCL before above or below its VCC supply. All of these applications they make contact. CS is a short pin that is pulled up when take advantage of the LTC4301L’s Hot SwapTM controlling, not connected. This is to ensure that the connection capacitance buffering and precharge features.

Placing an LTC4301L Figure 4 shows the LTC4301L in an application where all on the edge of each card, however, isolates the card of the pins have the same length. In this case, an RC filter capacitance from the backplane. For a given I/O card, the circuit on the I/O card with a product of 10ms provides a LTC4301L drives the capacitance of everything on the card filter to prevent the LTC4301L from becoming activated and the backplane must drive only the capacitance of the until the transients associated with live insertion have LTC4301L, which is less than 10pF. settled.
