LTC4300A-1/LTC4300A-2 APPLICATIONS INFORMATIONResistor Pull-Up Value Selection In addition, regardless of the bus capacitance, always choose R ≤ 16k for V The system pull-up resistors must be strong enough to CC = 5.5V maximum, R ≤ 24k for V provide a positive slew rate of 1.25V/μs on the SDA and CC = 3.6V maximum. The start-up circuitry requires logic high voltages on SDAOUT and SCLOUT to connect SCL pins, in order to activate the boost pull-up currents the backplane to the card, and these pull-up values are during rising edges. Choose maximum resistor value R needed to overcome the precharge voltage. using the formula: R ≤ (VCC(MIN) – 0.6) (800,000) / C Live Insertion and Capacitance Buffering Application where R is the pull-up resistor value in ohms, VCC(MIN) Figures 3 through 6 illustrate the usage of the LTC4300A is the minimum VCC voltage and C is the equivalent bus in applications that take advantage of both its hot swap capacitance in picofarads (pF). controlling and capacitance buffering features.
