Hot Board Insertion into CompactPCI Bus
The LTC
®
4244/LTC4244-1 are Hot Swap
TM
controllers that
allow a board to be safely inserted into and removed from
a CompactPCI
TM
bus slot. External N-channel transistors
control the 5V and 3.3V supplies while on-chip switches
control the ±12V supplies. The 3.3V and 5V supplies can
be ramped up at an adjustable rate. Electronic circuit
breakers protect all four supplies against overcurrent
faults. After the power-up cycle is complete, the TIMER pin
capacitor serves as auxiliary V
CC
allowing the LTC4244/
LTC4244-1 to function without interruption in the pres-
ence of voltage spikes on the 12V
IN
supply. The PWRGD
output indicates when all four supplies are within toler-
ance. The OFF/ON pin is used to cycle board power or reset
the circuit breaker. The PRECHARGE output can be used
to bias the bus I/O pins during card insertion and extrac-
tion. PCI_RST# is combined on-chip with HEALTHY# in
order to generate LOCAL_PCI_RST#.

12V
IN
(Pin 1): 12V Supply Input. A 0.5 switch is con-
nected between 12V
IN
and 12V
OUT
with a foldback current
limit. An undervoltage lockout circuit prevents the switches
from turning on while the 12V
IN
pin voltage is less than 9V.
12V
IN
also provides power to the LTC4244’s internal V
CC
node.
V
EEIN
(Pin 2):12V Supply Input. A 1 switch is con-
nected between V
EEIN
and V
EEOUT
with a foldback current
limit. An undervoltage lockout circuit prevents the switches
from turning on while the V
EEIN
pin voltage is greater than
9.25V. The V
EEIN
undervoltage lockout function is dis-
abled for the LTC4244-1.
5V
OUT
(Pin 3): 5V Output Sense. The PWRGD pin will not
pull low until the 5V
OUT
pin voltage exceeds 4.61V. A 200
active pull-down discharges 5V
OUT
to ground when the
power switches are turned off.
TIMER (Pin 4): Current Fault Inhibit Timing Input and
Auxiliary V
CC
. Connect a capacitor from TIMER to GND.
When the LTC4244 is turned on, a 21µA pull-up current
source is connected to TIMER. Current limit faults will be
ignored until the voltage at the TIMER pin rises to within
1.6V of 12V
IN
. After the TIMER pin has completed ramp-
ing up, the TIMER capacitor serves as an auxiliary charge
reservoir for V
CC
in the event the 12V
IN
pin voltage
momentarily drops below the undervoltage lockout thresh-
old voltage. When the LTC4244 is turned off (OFF/ON >
2V), the TIMER pin is pulled down to GND. After the TIMER
pin voltage drops to within 0.8V of GND, the TIMER latch
is reset and the part is ready for another power cycle.
OFF/ON
(Pin 5): Digital Input. Connect the CPCI BD_SEL#
signal to the OFF/ON pin. When the OFF/ON pin is pulled
low, the GATE pin is pulled high by a 67µA current source
and the internal 12V and –12V switches are turned on.
When the OFF/ON pin is pulled high, the GATE pin will be
pulled to ground by a 60µA current source and the 12V and
–12V switches turn off.
FAULT (Pin 6): Open-Drain Digital I/O. FAULT is pulled low
when a current limit fault is detected. Current limit faults
are ignored until the voltage at the TIMER pin is within 1.6V
of 12V
IN
. Once the TIMER cycle is complete, FAULT will
pull low and the LTC4244 latches off in the event of an
overcurrent fault. The part will remain in the latched off
state until the OFF/ON pin is cycled high then low. Forcing
the FAULT pin low with an external pull-down will cause
the part to latch into the off state after a 25µs deglitching
time.
PWRGD (Pin 7): Open-Drain Digital Power Good Output.
Connect the CPCI HEALTHY# signal to the PWRGD pin.
PWRGD remains low while V

11.1V. When any of
the supplies falls below its power good threshold voltage,
PWRGD will go high after a 14µs deglitching time.
GND (Pin 8): Device Ground.
RESETIN (Pin 9): Digital Input. Connect the CPCI PCI_RST#
signal to the RESETIN pin. Pulling the RESETIN pin low will
cause RESETOUT to pull low. RESETOUT will also pull low
when PWRGD is high.

RESETOUT (Pin 10): Open-Drain Digital Output. Connect
the CPCI_LOCAL_RST# signal to the RESETOUT pin.
RESETOUT is the logical combination of the RESETIN and
PWRGD.
DRIVE (Pin 11): Precharge Base Drive Output. Provides
base drive for an external NPN emitter-follower that in turn
biases the PRECHARGE node.
PRECHARGE (Pin 12): Precharge Monitor Input. An inter-
nal error amplifier servos the DRIVE pin voltage to keep the
PRECHARGE node at 1V. See Applications Information for
generating voltages other than 1V. If not used, tie the
PRECHARGE pin to ground.
5V
IN
(Pin 13): 5V Supply Sense Input. An undervoltage
lockout circuit prevents the switches from turning on
when the voltage at the 5V
IN
pin is less than 4.25V.
5V
SENSE
(Pin 14): 5V Current Limit Sense. With a sense
resistor placed in the supply path between 5V
IN
and
5V
SENSE
, the GATE pin voltage will be adjusted to maintain
a constant 51mV across the sense resistor and a constant
current through the switch while the TIMER pin is low. A
foldback feature makes the current limit decrease as the
voltage at the 5V
OUT
pin approaches GND. When the
TIMER pin is high, the circuit breaker function is enabled.
If the voltage across the sense resistor exceeds 52mV, the
circuit breaker is tripped after a 25µs time delay. In the
event of a short-circuit or large overcurrent transient
condition, the GATE pin voltage will be adjusted to main-
tain a constant 150mV across the sense resistor and a
constant current through the switch.
GATE (Pin 15): High Side Gate Drive for the External 3.3V
and 5V N-Channel Pass Transistors. An external series RC
network is required for current limit loop compensation
and setting the minimum ramp-up time. During power-up,
the slope of the voltage rise at the GATE is set by the 67µA
current source connected through a Schottky diode to
12V
IN
and the external capacitor connected to GND (C1 in
Figure 1) or by the 3.3V or 5V current limit and the bulk
capacitance in the 3.3V
OUT
or 5V
OUT
supply lines. During
power down, the slew rate of the GATE voltage is set by the
60µA current source connected to GND and the external
GATE capacitor (C1 in Figure 1).
The voltage at the GATE pin will be modulated to maintain
a constant current when either the 5V or 3.3V supplies go
into current limit. In the event of an overcurrent fault, the
GATE pin is immediately pulled to GND.
3.3V
SENSE
(Pin 16): 3.3V Current Limit Sense. With a
sense resistor placed in the supply path between 3.3V
IN
and 3.3V
SENSE
, the GATE pin voltage will be adjusted to
maintain a constant 51mV across the sense resistor and a
constant current through the switch while the TIMER pin
is low. A foldback feature makes the current limit decrease
as the voltage at the 3.3V
OUT
pin approaches GND. When
the TIMER pin is high, the circuit breaker function is
enabled. If the voltage across the sense resistor exceeds
52mV, the circuit breaker is tripped after a 25µs time delay.
In the event of a short-circuit or large overcurrent transient
condition, the GATE pin voltage will be adjusted to main-
tain a constant 150mV across the sense resistor and a
constant current through the switch.

Hot Circuit Insertion
When a circuit board is inserted into a live CompactPCI
(CPCI) bus, the supply bypass capacitors can draw huge
inrush currents from the CPCI power bus as they charge
up. These transient currents can create glitches on the
power bus, causing other boards in the system to reset.
The LTC4244 is designed to turn a board’s back-end
supply voltages on and off in a controlled manner, allow-
ing the board to be safely inserted or removed from a live
CPCI connector without glitching the system power sup-
plies. It also protects the system supplies from shorts,
precharges the bus I/O connector pins during hot insertion
and extraction, and monitors the supply voltages.
The LTC4244 is specifically designed for CPCI applica-
tions where the Hot Swap controller resides on the plug-
in board.
LTC4244 Feature Summary
Allows safe insertion and removal from a CPCI back-
plane.
Controls all four CPCI supplies: -12V, 12V, 3.3V and 5V.
Adjustable foldback current limit for the 5V and 3.3V
supplies: an adjustable analog current limit with a value
that depends on the output voltage. If the output is
shorted to ground the current limit drops to keep power
dissipation and supply glitches to a minimum.
12V and –12V circuit breakers: if either supply remains
in analog foldback current limit for more than 25µs, the
circuit breakers will trip, the supplies are turned off and
the FAULT pin is pulled low.
Adjustable 5V and 3.3V circuit breakers: if either supply
exceeds its current limit for more than 25µs, the circuit
breaker will trip, the supplies will be turned off and the
FAULT pin is asserted low. In the event of a short circuit
on either supply, an analog current limit will prevent the
supply current from exceeding three times the circuit
breaker threshold current.
Current limit during power up: the supplies are allowed
to power up in current limit. This allows the LTC4244 to
power up boards with widely varying capacitive loads
without tripping the circuit breaker. The maximum
allowable power-up time is adjustable using the TIMER
pin capacitor.
Internal 12V and –12V power switches.
PWRGD output: monitors the voltage status of the four
back-end supply voltages.
PCI_RST# combined on chip with HEALTHY# to create
LOCAL_PCI_RST# output. Simply connect the
PCI_RST# signal to the RESETIN pin and the
LOCAL_PCI_RST# signal to the open-drain RESETOUT
pin.
Precharge output: on-chip reference and error amplifier
provide 1V for biasing bus I/O connector pins during
CPCI card insertion and extraction.
TIMER/AUX. V
CC
: After power-up, the TIMER pin ca-
pacitor serves as auxiliary V
CC
, thus enabling the
LTC4244 to ride out large voltage spikes on the 12V
IN
supply without interruption.
Undervoltage lockout: All four input voltages are pro-
tected by undervoltage lockouts.
Space saving 20-pin SSOP package.
LTC4244 vs LTC1644
The LTC4244 is pin-for-pin compatible with the LTC1644.
There are, however, some important differences between
the two parts:
TIMER: The LTC4244’s TIMER pin threshold voltage is
1.6V below V
12VIN
vs 1V for the LTC1644. After power-
up, the LTC4244’s TIMER pin also doubles as auxiliary
V
CC
.
•V
EEIN
UVL: The LTC4244 has a –9.5V UVL threshold
protecting the V
EEIN
supply. The LTC1644 has no V
EEIN
UVL feature.

•5V

UVL Threshold Voltage: The LTC4244’s 5V

threshold voltage is 4.25V vs. 2.5V for the LTC1644.
•V
EEOUT
PWRGD Threshold Voltage: The LTC4244 V
EEOUT
power good threshold voltage is –11.1V vs –10.5V for
the LTC1644.
Absolute Maximum Ratings: The LTC4244’s absolute
maximum ratings for the 12V
IN
and V
EEIN
pins are
±14.4V, respectively, vs ±13.2V for the LTC1644.
5V/3.3V Circuit Breakers: If a short-circuit occurs after
power-up, the LTC4244 actively limits the voltage
dropped across the external 5V and 3.3V sense resis-
tors to 150mV for 25µs before tripping the circuit
breaker. In the event either the 5V or 3.3V sense resistor
voltage exceeds 150mV, the LTC1644 trips the circuit
breaker without delay.
5V/3.3V Circuit Breaker Threshold Voltage: The LTC4244
threshold voltage is 52mV ±5mV vs 55mV ±15mV for
the LTC1644.
External Gate Voltage: After power-up, the voltage drop
from the 12V
IN
pin to the GATE pin is 0.6V for the
LTC4244 vs 50mV for the LTC1644.
Hot Plug Power-Up Sequence
The LTC4244 is specifically designed for hot plugging
CPCI boards. The typical application circuit is shown in
Figure 1.
CPCI Connector Pin Sequence
The staggered lengths of the CPCI male connector pins
ensure that all power supplies are physically connected to
the LTC4244 before back-end power is allowed to ramp up
(BD_SEL# asserted low). The long pins, which include 5V,
3.3.V, V(I/O) and GND, mate first. The short BD_SEL# pin
mates last. At least one long 5V power pin must be
connected to the LTC4244 in order for the PRECHARGE
voltage to be available during the insertion sequence.
The following is a typical hot insertion sequence:
1. ESD clips make contact.
2. Long power and ground pins make contact and Early
Power is established. The 1V precharge voltage be-
comes valid at this stage of insertion. Power is also
applied to the pull-up resistors connected to the FAULT,
PWRGD and OFF/ON pins. All power switches are held
off at this stage of insertion.
3. Medium length pins make contact. Both FAULT and
PWRGD continue to be pulled up high at this stage in the
hot plug sequence, and the power switches are still held
off. The 12V and –12V connector pins also make
contact at this stage. Zener clamps Z1 and Z2 plus shunt
RC snubbers R16-C5 and R15-C4 help protect the V
EEIN
and 12V
IN
pins, respectively, from large voltage tran-
sients during hot insertion.
The signal pins also connect at this point. These include
the HEALTHY# signal (which is connected to the PWRGD
pin), the PCI_RST# signal (which is connected to the
RESETIN pin) and the I/O connector pins (which are
biased at 1V by the LTC4244’s precharge circuit).
4. Short pins make contact. The BD_SEL# signal is con-
nected to the OFF/ON pin. If the BD_SEL# signal is
grounded on the backplane, the plug-in card power-up
cycle begins immediately. System backplanes that do
not ground the BD_SEL# signal will instead have cir-
cuitry that detects when BD_SEL# makes contact with
the plug-in board. The system logic can then control the
power up process by pulling BD_SEL# low.
Power-Up Sequence
The back-end 3.3V
OUT
and 5V
OUT
power planes are iso-
lated from the 3.3V
IN
and 5V
IN
power planes by external
N-channel pass transistors Q1 and Q2, respectively. Inter-
nal pass transistors isolate the back-end 12V
OUT
and
V
EEOUT
power planes from the 12V
IN
and V
EEIN
power
planes.

Sense resistors R1 and R2 provide current fault detection
and R5 and C1 provide current control loop compensation
as well as ramp rate control for the GATE pin voltage.
Resistors R3 and R4 prevent high frequency oscillations
in MOSFET’s Q1 and Q2.
A power-up sequence begins when the OFF/ON pin is
pulled low (Figure 2). This enables the pass transistors to
turn on and an internal 21µA current source is connected
to TIMER. Once the pass transistors begin to conduct
current, the supplies will start to power up. Current limit
faults are ignored while the TIMER pin voltage is ramping
up and is less than (12V
IN
– 1.6V). When all four supply
voltages are within tolerance, HEALTHY# will pull low and
LOCAL_PCI_RST# is free to follow PCI_RST#.
Power-Down Sequence
When the BD_SEL# signal is pulled high, a power-down
sequence begins (Figure 3).
Internal switches are connected to each of the output
voltage supply pins to discharge the bypass capacitors to
ground. The TIMER pin is immediately pulled low. The
GATE pin is pulled down by a 60µA current source to
prevent the load currents on the 3.3V and 5V supplies from
going to zero instantaneously and glitching the power
supply voltages. When any of the output voltages dips
below its threshold, the HEALTHY# signal pulls high and
LOCAL_PCI_RST# will be asserted low.

Once the power-down sequence is complete, the CPCI
card may be removed from the slot. During extraction, the
precharge circuit continues to bias the bus I/O connector
pins at 1V until the long 5V and 3.3V connector pin
connections are broken.

In general, the edge rate (dI/dt) at which the back-end 5V
and 3.3V supply currents are turned on can be limited by
increasing the size of C1. Applications that are sensitive to
the edge rate should characterize how varying the size of
C1 reduces dI/dt for the external MOSFET selected for a
particular design.
In the event of a short-circuit or overcurrent condition, the
LTC4244’s GATE pin can be pulled down within 2µs since
a 1k (R5 in Figure 1) decouples C1 from the gates of the
external MOSFET’s (Q1 and Q2 in Figure 1).
TIMER Pin Capacitor Selection
During a power-up sequence, a 21µA current source is
connected to the TIMER pin and current limit faults are
ignored until the voltage ramps to within 1.6V of 12V
IN
.
This feature allows the part to power up large capacitive
loads using its foldback current limit. The TIMER inhibit

The timer period should be set longer than the duration of
any inrush current that exceeds the LTC4244’s foldback
current limit but yet be short enough not to exceed the
maximum, safe operating area of the external 5V and 3.3V
pass transistors in the event of a short circuit (see Design
Example). As a design aid, the TIMER period as a function
of the timing capacitor using standard values from 0.1µF
to 0.82µF is shown in Table 1.

The TIMER pin is immediately pulled low when the BD_SEL#
pin signal goes high.
Thermal Shutdown
The internal switches for the 12V and –12V supplies are
protected by a thermal shutdown circuit. When the junc-
tion temperature of the die reaches 150°C, all switches will
be latched off and the FAULT pin will be pulled low.
Short-Circuit Protection
During a normal power-up sequence, if the TIMER pin is
done ramping and any supply is still in current limit all of
the pass transistors will be immediately turned off and
FAULT will be pulled low as shown in Figure 4.
In order to prevent excessive power dissipation in the pass
transistors and prevent voltage spikes on the supplies
during short-circuit conditions, the current limit on each
supply is designed to be a function of the output voltage.
As the output voltage drops, the current limit decreases.
Unlike a traditional circuit breaker function where large
currents can flow before the breaker trips, the current
foldback feature guarantees that the supply current will be
kept at a safe level.
If either the 12V or –12V supply exceeds current limit
after power-up, the shorted supply’s current will drop

current limit for more than 25µs, all of the supplies will be

example, from a fan turning on—from causing false trips
of the circuit breaker.
After power-up, the 5V and 3.3V supplies are protected
from short circuits by dual-level circuit breakers. In the
event that either supply’s current exceeds the nominal
current limit, an internal timer is started. If the supply is
still overcurrent after
25
µs, the circuit breaker trips and all
the supplies are turned off (Figure 5). An analog current
limit loop prevents the supply current from exceeding 3×
the nominal current limit in the event of a short circuit
(Figure 6). The LTC4244 will stay in the latched off state
until the OFF/ON pin is cycled high then low or the 12V
IN
power supply is cycled low then high.
The current limit and the foldback current level for the 5V
and 3.3V outputs are both a function of the external sense
resistor. As shown in Figure 1, a sense resistor is con-
nected between 5V
IN
and 5V
SENSE
for the 5V supply. For
the 3.3V supply, a sense resistor is connected between
3.3V
IN
and 3.3V
SENSE
. The typical current limit and the
foldback current levels are given by Equations 6 and 7:

Calculating R
SENSE
Determining the most appropriate value for the sense
resistor first requires knowing the maximum current needed
by the load under worst-case conditions. Two other pa-
rameters affect the value of the sense resistor. First is the
tolerance of the LTC4244’s circuit breaker threshold volt-
age. The LTC4244’s nominal circuit breaker threshold
voltage is V
CB(NOM)
= 52mV; however it exhibits ±5mV
tolerance over process and temperature. Second is the
tolerance (RTOL) of the sense resistor. Sense resistors are
available in RTOL’s of ±1%, ±2% and ±5% and exhibit
temperature coefficients of resistance (TCR’s) between
±75ppm/°C and ±100ppm/°C. How the sense resistor
changes as a function of temperature depends on the
I
2
• R power being dissipated by it. The power rating of the
sense resistor should accommodate steady-state fault
current levels so that the component is not damaged
before the circuit breaker trips.

Output Voltage Monitor
The status of all four output voltages is monitored by the
power good function. In addition, the PCI_RST# signal is
logically combined on-chip with the HEALTHY# signal to
create LOCAL_PCI_RST# (see Table 3). As a result,
LOCAL_PCI_RST# will be pulled low whenever HEALTHY#
is pulled high independent of the state of the PCI_RST#
signal.
If any of the output voltages drop below the power good
threshold for more than 14µs, the PWRGD pin will be
pulled high and the LOCAL_PCI_RST# signal will be
asserted low.

Precharge
The PRECHARGE input and DRIVE output pins are in-
tended for use in generating the 1V precharge voltage that
is used to bias the bus I/O connector pins during board
insertion and extraction. The LTC4244 is also capable of
generating precharge voltages other than 1V. Figure 7
shows a circuit that can be used in applications requiring
a precharge voltage of less than 1V. The circuit in Figure␣ 8
can be used for applications that need precharge voltages
greater than 1V.
Precharge resistors are used to connect the 1V bias volt-
age to the I/O lines with minimal disturbance. Figure 1
shows the precharge application circuit for 5V signaling.
The precharge resistor requirements are more stringent
for 3.3V and Universal Hot Swap boards. If the total leak-
age current on the I/O line is less 2µA, then a 50k resistor
can be connected directly from the 1V bias voltage to the
I/O line. However, many ICs connected to the I/O lines can
have leakage currents up to 10µA. For these applications,
a 10k resistor is used but must be disconnected when the
board is seated as determined by the state of the BD_SEL#
signal. Figure 9 shows a precharge circuit that uses a bus
switch to connect the individual 10k precharge resistors to
the LTC4244’s 1V PRECHARGE pin. The electrical connec-
tion is made (bus switches closed) when the voltage on the
BD_SEL# pin of the plug-in card is pulled-up to 5V
IN
,
which occurs just after the long pins have made contact.
The bus switches are electrically disconnected when the
short, BD_SEL# connector pin makes contact and the

BD_SEL# voltage drops below 4.4V thus causing the bus
switch OE to be pulled high by Q2.
The CompactPCI specification assumes that there is a
diode to 3.3V on the circuit that is driving the BD_SEL# pin.
The 1.2k resistor pull-up to 5V
IN
on the plug-in card will be
clamped by the diode to 3.3V. If the BD_SEL# pin is being
driven high, the actual voltage on the pin will be approxi-
mately 3.9V. This is still above the high TTL threshold of
the LTC4244 OFF/ON pin, but low enough for Q2 to disable
the bus switches and thus disconnect the 10k precharge
resistors from the I/O lines. Since the power to the bus
switch is derived from a front-end power plane, a 100
resistor should be placed in series with the power supply
of the bus switch.
When the plug-in card is removed from the connector, the
BD_SEL# connection is broken first, and the BD_SEL#
voltage pulls up to 5V
IN
. This causes Q2 to turn off, which
re-enables the bus switch, and the precharge resistors are
again connected to the LTC4244 PRECHARGE pin for the
remainder of the extraction process.
TIMER/Auxiliary V
CC
Once the TIMER pin voltage has ramped to within 1.6V of
12V
IN
, the auxiliary V
CC
function is enabled. In the event
the 12V
IN
supply voltage collapses, the LTC4244 will
continue to draw power from the charge stored on the
TIMER pin capacitor until the internal V
CC
node drops
below its undervoltage lockout threshold or the 12V
IN
supply voltage recovers, whichever happens first.
Other CompactPCI Applications
The LTC4244-1 is designed for CompactPCI designs
where the –12V supply is not being used on the plug-in
board. The V
EEOUT
power good comparator, V
EEIN
UVL,
and V
EE
circuit breaker functions are disabled. The V
EEIN
pin should be connected to GND and the V
EEOUT
pin left
floating if a –12V output is not needed.
If no 3.3V supply input is required, Figure 10 illustrates
how the LTC4244 should be configured: 3.3V
SENSE
and
3.3V
IN
are connected to 5V
IN
and 3.3V
OUT
is connected to
5V
OUT
.
For applications where the BD_SEL# connector pin is
typically connected to ground on the backplane, the circuit
in Figure 11 allows the LTC4244 to be reset simply by
pressing a pushbutton switch on the CPCI plug in board.
This arrangement eliminates the requirement to extract
and reinsert the CPCI board in order to reset the LTC4244’s
circuit breaker.

Power MOSFET Selection Criteria
The LTC4244 uses external MOSFETs to limit the 5V and
3.3V supply currents. The following criteria should be
used when selecting these MOSFET’s:
1. The on resistance should be low enough to prevent an
excessive voltage drop across the sense resistor and
the series MOSFET at rated load current given the
amount of gate to source voltage provided by the
LTC4244.
2. The drain-to-source breakdown voltage should be high
enough for the device to survive overvoltage transients
that may occur during fault conditions (the 5V and 3.3V
transient voltage limiters shown in Figure 1 will limit the
maximum drain-source voltage seen by these MOSFET’s
during fault conditions).
3. The MOSFET package must be able to handle the
maximum, steady state power dissipation for the ON
state without exceeding the device’s rated maximum
junction temperature. The MOSFET’s steady-state, dis-
sipated power can be expressed as:
P

The increase in steady-state junction-to-ambient tem-
perature is given by:

4. The MOSFET package must be able to dissipate the heat
resulting from the power pulse during the transition
from off to on. A worst-case approximation for the
magnitude of the power pulse is:

5. The MOSFET package must be able to sustain the
maximum pulse power that occurs in the event the
LTC4244 attempts to power-up either the 5V or 3.3V
back-end supply into a short circuit (see Design Ex-
ample for a sample calculation).
Table 8 lists some power MOSFET’s that can be used with
the LTC4244.
Input Overvoltage Transient Protection
Hot plugging a board into a backplane generates inrush
currents from the backplane power supplies due to the
charging of the plug-in board capacitance. To reduce this
transient current to a safe level, the CPCI Hot Swap
specification restricts the amount of unswitched capaci-
tance used on the input side of the plug-in board. Each
medium or long power pin connected to the CPCI female
connector on the plug-in board is required to have a 10nF
ceramic bypass capacitor to ground. Bulk capacitors are
only allowed on the switched output side of the LTC4244
(5V
OUT
, 3.3V
OUT
, 12V
OUT
, V
EEOUT
). Some bulk capaci-
tance is allowed on the 5V
IN
and 3.3V
IN
Early Power
planes, but only because a current limiting resistor is
assumed to decouple the connector pin from the bulk
capacitance. Circuits normally placed on the unswitched
side Early Power plane (PCI Bridge, for example) need to
to be decoupled by a current limiting resistor.
Disallowing bulk capacitors on the input power pins miti-
gates the inrush current during Hot Swap. However, it also
tends to create a resonant circuit formed by the inductance
of the backplane power supply trace in series with the
inductance of the connector pin and the parasitic capaci-
tance of the plug-in board (mainly due to the large power
FET). Upon board insertion, the ringing of this circuit can
exhibit a peak overshoot of 2.5 times the steady-state
voltage (>30V for 12V
IN
).
There are two methods for abating the effects of these high
voltage transients: using voltage limiters to clip the tran-
sient to a safe level and snubber networks. Snubber
networks are series RC networks whose time constants
21
LTC4244/LTC4244-1
42441f
are experimentally determined based on the board’s para-
sitic resonance circuits. As a starting point, the capacitors
in these networks are chosen to be 10× to 100× the power
MOSFET’s C
OSS
under bias. The series resistor is a value
determined experimentally that ranges from 1 to 50,
depending on the parasitic resonance circuit. Note that in
all LTC4244 circuit schematics,
both
transient voltage
limiters and snubber networks have been added to the
12V
IN
and V
EEIN
supply rails and should always be used.
Snubber networks are not necessary on the 3.3V
IN
or the
5V
IN
supply lines since their absolute maximum voltage
ratings are 13.5V. Transient voltage limiters, however, are
recommended as these devices provide large-scale tran-
sient protection for the LTC4244 in the event of abrupt
changes in supply current. All protection networks should
be mounted very close to the LTC4244’s supply pins using
short lead lengths to minimize trace resistance and induc-
tance. This is shown schematically in Figures 12 and 13
and a recommended layout of the transient protection
devices around the LTC4244 is shown in Figure 14.

PCB Layout Considerations
For proper operation of the LTC4244’s circuit breaker,

tor and the LTC4244’s 5V
IN
and 5V
SENSE
pins and 3.3V
IN
and 3.3V

pins are strongly recommended. The PCB
layout should be balanced and symmetrical to minimize
wiring errors. In addition, the PCB layout for the sense
resistors and the power MOSFETs should include good
thermal management techniques for optimal device power
dissipation. A recommended PCB layout for the sense
resistor, the power MOSFET and the GATE drive compo-
nents around the LTC4244 is illustrated in Figure 15. In Hot

Swap applications where load currents can be 10A, nar-
row PCB tracks exhibit more resistance than wider tracks
and operate at more elevated temperatures. Since the
sheet resistance of 1 ounce copper foil is approximately
0.45m/o, track resistance and voltage drops add up
quickly in high current applications. Thus, to keep PCB
track resistance, voltage drop and temperature to a mini-
mum, the suggested trace width in these applications for
1 ounce copper foil is 0.03” for each ampere of DC current.
In the majority of applications, it will be necessary to use

is 1 ampere of DC current per via making sure the via is

Design Example
As a design example, consider a CPCI Hot Swap applica-
tion with the following power supply requirements:
Table 4. Design Example Power Supply Requirements
VOLTAGE MAXIMUM DC LOAD
SUPPLY SUPPLY CURRENT CAPACITANCE
12V 450mA 100µF
5V 5A 2200µF
3.3V 7A 2200µF
–12V 100mA 100µF
The first step is to select the appropriate values of R
SENSE
for the 5V and 3.3V supplies. Calculating the value of
R
SENSE
is based on I
LOAD(MAX)
and the lower limit for the
circuit breaker threshold voltage (47mV for both the 5V
and 3.3V circuit breakers). If a 1% tolerance is assumed
for the sense resistors, then 5m and 7m resistor
values yield the following minimum and maximum I
TRIP
values:
Table 5. ITRIP vs RSENSE
R
SENSE
(1% RTOL) I
TRIP(MIN)
I
TRIP(MAX)
5m9.3A 11.5A
7m6.6A 8.2A
So sense resistor values of 7m and 5m should suffice
for the 5V and 3.3V supplies, respectively.
The second step is to select MOSFETs for the 5V and 3.3V
supplies. The IRF7457’s on resistance is less than 10.5m
for V
GS
> 4.5V and a junction temperature of 25°C. Since
the maximum load current requirement for the 3.3V sup-
ply is 7A, the steady-state power the device may be
required to dissipate is 514mW. The IRF7457 has a
junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 50°C/Watt. If a
maximum ambient temperature of 50°C is assumed, this
yields a junction temperature of 75.7°C. According to the
IRF7457’s Normalized On-Resistance vs Junction Tem-
perature curve, the device’s on-resistance can be expected
to increase by about 20% over its room temperature value.
Recalculation of the steady-state values of R
ON
and junc-
tion temperature yields approximately 12.6m and 81°C,
respectively. The I • R drop across the 3.3V sense resistor
and series MOSFET at maximum load current under these
conditions will be less than 124mV.
The next step is to select appropriate values for C1
and
C
TIMER
. Assuming that the total current for the 5V supply
is constrained to less than 6A during power-up (6 × 5V
medium length connector pins at 1A per pin), then the
inrush current shouldn’t exceed:
I
INRUSH
< 6A – I
LOAD(5VOUT)

Dissipated Power vs Output Voltage
The next step is to verify that the thermal ratings of the
external 5V and 3.3V MOSFETs aren’t being exceeded
during power-up cycles into the designed loads or into a
short circuit.
The amount of heating in the 5V and 3.3V MOSFETs during
a normal power cycle depends on the LTC4244’s GATE pin
current (refer to Gate Current vs Temperature plot in the
Typical Performance Characteristics section). The magni-
tude of the off-on power pulse that results in maximum
heating of the MOSFETs is given by Equation 10 as:

Solving these equations for the 5V and 3.3V supplies
yields:

5V MOSFET 12.8W 90ms
3.3V MOSFET 11.8W 60ms
Under these conditions, the IRF7457 datasheet’s Thermal
Response vs Pulse Duration curve indicates that the
junction-to-ambient temperature will increase by 60°C for
the 5V MOSFET and 46°C for the 3.3V MOSFET.
The duration and magnitude of the power pulse that
results during a short-circuit condition on either the 5V or
3.3V outputs are a function of the TIMER capacitor and the
LTC4244’s foldback current limit. Figure 16 shows the
worst-case power dissipated in the 5V and 3.3V external
FETs vs V
5VOUT
and V
3.3VOUT
, respectively. In the case of
the 3.3V external MOSFET, the maximum dissipated power
is 24 Watts (V
3.3VOUT
= 0.9V). For the 5V external MOSFET,
the maximum dissipated power is 22 Watts (V
5VOUT
=
1.75V). The maximum duration of the short-circuit power-
pulse is given by Equation 19 as:

The IRF7457’s Thermal Response vs Pulse Duration curve
indicates that the worst-case increase in junction-to-
ambient temperature during a power-cycle for the 3.3V
MOSFET is less than 96°C while the worst-case increase
in junction-to-ambient temperature for the 5V MOSFET is
less than 88°C.
