Hot Board Insertion Electronic Circuit Breaker

The LTC®1421/LTC1421-2.5 are Hot SwapTM controllersthat allow a board to be safely inserted and removed from alive backplane. Using external N-channel pass transistors,the board supply voltages can be ramped up at a program-mable rate. Two high side switch drivers control the N-channel gates for supply voltages ranging from 3V to 12V.

A programmable electronic circuit breaker protects againstshorts. Warning signals indicate that the circuit breakerhas tripped, a power failure has occurred or that the switchdrivers are turned off. The reset output can be used togenerate a system reset when the power cycles or a faultoccurs. The two connect inputs can be used with stag-gered connector pins to indicate board insertion or re-moval. The power-on reset input can be used to cycle theboard power or clear the circuit breaker.

The trip point of the ground sense comparator is set at0.1V for LTC1421 and 2.5V for LTC1421-2.5.

The LTC1421/LTC1421-2.5 are available in 24-pin SO andSSOP packages.

PIN FUNCTIONS

UUU

CON1 (Pin 1): TTL Level Input with a Pull-Up to VCCLO.Together with CON2, it is used to indicate board connec-tion. The pin must be tied to ground on the host side of theconnector. When using staggered connector pins, CON1and CON2 must be the shortest and must be placed atopposite corners of the connector. Board insertion isassumed after CON1 and CON2 are both held low for 20msafter power-up.

CON2 (Pin 2): TTL Level Input with a Pull-Up to VCCLO.Together with CON1 it is used to indicate board connec-tion.

POR (Pin 3): TTL Level Input with a Pull-Up to VCCLO.When the pin is pulled low for at least 20ms, a hard resetis generated. Both VOUTLO and VOUTHI will turn off at acontrolled rate. A power-up sequence will not start untilthe POR pin is pulled high. If POR is pulled high beforeVOUTLO and VOUTHI are fully discharged, a power-upsequence will not begin until the voltage at VOUTLO andVOUTHI are below VTRIP. The electronic circuit breaker willbe reset by pulling POR low.

FAULT (Pin 4): Open Drain Output to GND with a WeakPull-Up to VCCLO. The pin is pulled low when an overcur-rent fault is detected at VOUTLO or VOUTHI.

DISABLE (Pin 5): CMOS Output. The signal is used todisable the board’s data bus during insertion or removal.

PWRGD (Pin 6): Open Drain Output to GND with a WeakPull-Up to VCCLO. The pin is pulled low immediately afterVOUTLO falls below its reset threshold voltage. The pin ispulled high immediately after VOUTLO rises above its resetthreshold voltage.

RESET (Pin 7): Open Drain Output to GND with a WeakPull-Up to VCCLO. The pin is pulled low when a resetcondition is detected. A reset will be generated when anyof the following conditions are met: Either CON1 or CON2is high, POR is pulled low, VCCLO or VCCHI are below theirrespective undervoltage lockout thresholds, PWRGD goeslow or an overcurrent fault is detected at VOUTLO orVOUTHI. RESET will go high 200ms after PWRGD goeshigh. On power failure, RESET will go low 32µs afterPWRGD goes low.

REF (Pin 8): The Reference Voltage Output. VOUT = 1.232V±1%. The reference can source up to 5mA of current. A1µF bypass capacitor is recommended.

CPON (Pin 9): CMOS Output That Can Be Pulled BelowGround. CPON is pulled high when the internal chargepumps for GATELO and GATEHI are turned on. CPON ispulled low when the charge pumps are turned off. The pincan be used to control an external MOSFET for a –5V to–12V supply.

PIN FUNCTIONS

UUU

RAMP (Pin 10): Analog Power-Up Ramp Control Pin. Byconnecting an external capacitor between the RAMP andGATEHI, a positive linear voltage ramp on GATEHI andGATELO is generated on power-up with a slope equal to20µA/CRAMP. A 10k resistor in series with the capacitorenhances the ESD performance at the GATEHI pin.

FB (Pin 11): Analog Feedback Input. FB is used to set thereset threshold voltage on VCCLO. For a 5V supply leave FBfloating. For a 3.3V supply, short FB to VCCLO.

GND (Pin 12): Ground

COMP+ (Pin 13): Noninverting Comparator Input.

COMP– (Pin 14): Inverting Comparator Input.

COMPOUT (Pin 15): Open Drain Comparator Output.

VOUTHI (Pin 16): High Supply Voltage Output. This must bethe higher of the two supply voltage outputs.

GATEHI (Pin 17): The High Side Gate Drive for the HighSupply N-Channel. An internal charge pump guarantees atleast 6V of gate drive. The slope of the voltage rise atGATEHI is set by the external capacitor connected betweenGATEHI and RAMP. When the circuit breaker trips, GATEHIis immediately pulled to GND.

SETHI (Pin 18): The Circuit Breaker Set Pin for the HighSupply. With a sense resistor placed in the supply pathbetween VCCHI and SETHI, the circuit breaker will trip whenthe voltage across the resistor exceeds 50mV for morethan 20µs. To disable the circuit breaker, VCCHI and SETHIshould be shorted together.

VCCHI (Pin 19): The Positive Supply Input. This must be thehigher of the two input supply voltages. An undervoltagelockout circuit disables the chip until the voltage at VCCHIis greater than 2.45V.

VOUTLO (Pin 20): Low Supply Voltage Output. This must bethe lower of the two supply voltage outputs.

GATELO (Pin 21): The High Side Gate Drive for the LowSupply N-Channel Pass Transistor. An internal chargepump guarantees at least 10V of gate drive. The slope ofthe voltage rise at GATELO is set by the external capacitorconnected between GATEHI and RAMP. When the circuitbreaker trips GATELO is immediately pulled to GND.

SETLO (Pin 22): The Circuit Breaker Set Pin for the LowSupply. With a sense resistor placed in the supply pathbetween VCCLO and SETLO, the circuit breaker will tripwhen the voltage across the resistor exceeds 50mV formore than 20µs. To disable the circuit breaker, VCCLO andSETLO should be shorted together.

VCCLO (Pin 23): The Positive Supply Input. VCCLO must beequal to or lower voltage than VCCHI. An undervoltagelockout circuit disables the chip until the voltage at VCCLOis greater than 2.45V.

AUXVCC (Pin 24): The supply input for the GATELO andGATEHI discharge circuitry. Connect a 1µF capacitor toground. AUXVCC is powered from VCCLO via an internalSchottky diode and series resistor.

When circuit boards are inserted into a live backplane, thesupply bypass capacitors on the board can draw hugetransient currents from the backplane power bus as theycharge up. The transient currents can cause permanentdamage to the connector pins and cause glitches on thesystem supply, causing other boards in the system toreset. At the same time, the system data bus can bedisrupted when the board’s data pins make or breakconnection.

The LTC1421 is designed to turn a board’s supply voltageson and off in a controlled manner, allowing the board to besafely inserted or removed from a live backplane. The chipalso provides a disable signal for the board’s data busbuffer during insertion or removal and provides all thenecessary supply supervisory functions for the board.

Power Supply Ramping

The power supplies on a board are controlled by placingexternal N-channel pass transistors in the power path(Figure 3). R1 and R2 provide current fault detection. Byramping the gate of the pass transistor up at a controlledrate, the transient surge current (I = C • dV/dt) drawn fromthe main backplane supply can be limited to a safe valuewhen the board makes connection.

PWRGD and RESET

The LTC1421 uses a 1.232V bandgap reference, internalresistive divider and a precision voltage comparator tomonitor VOUTLO (Figure 6).

The reset threshold voltage for VOUTLO is determined bythe FB pin connection as summarized in Table 1.

When VOUTLO drops below its reset threshold, the com-parator output goes high, and PWRGD is immediatelypulled low (time point 2). After a 32µs delay, RESET ispulled low. The RESET delay allows the PWRGD signal tobe used as an early warning that a reset is about to occur.If the PWRGD signal is used as a interrupt input to amicroprocessor, a short power-down routine can be runbefore the reset occurs.

If VOUTLO rises above the reset threshold for less than200ms, the PWRGD output will trip, but the RESET output isnot affected (time point 3). If VOUTLO drops below the resetthreshold for less than 32µs, the PWRGD output will trip, butagain the RESET output will not be affected (time point 5).

Voltage Comparator

The uncommitted voltage comparator (COMP2) can beused to monitor output voltages other than VOUTLO. Figure8a shows how the comparator can be used to monitor a12V supply (VOUTHI), while the 5V supply (VOUTLO) gener-ates a reset when it dips below 4.65V. When the 12Vsupply drops below 10.8V, COMPOUT will pull low. The FBpin is left floating.

Figure 8b shows how the comparator can be used tomonitor the 5V supply (VOUTHI) while the 3.3V supply(VOUTLO) generates a reset when it dips below 2.9V. Whenthe 5V supply drops below 4.65V, COMPOUT will pull low.The FB pin is tied to VOUTLO.

A 5.1k resistor is tied from the FB pin to VOUTLO, setting theinternal threshold to about 2.9V. The new reset thresholdvoltage is set by the external resistive divider connected toCOMP2. When VOUTLO drops below the new threshold,COMPOUT pulls FB to ground, changing the internalthreshold at COMP1 to 5.88V and generating a reset.

Finally, the comparator may be used to monitor a negativesupply as shown in Figure 8e. The external resistor divider

Figure 8c shows how the comparator can be used togenerate a reset when the 12V supply (VOUTHI) dropsbelow 10.8V. The 5V supply (VOUTLO) also generates areset when it dips below 4.65V. When the 12V supplydrops below 10.8V, COMPOUT will pull the FB pin lowsetting the internal threshold voltage for comparator 1 to5.88V. Since VOUTLO is less than 5.88V, PWRGD immedi-ately goes low and a reset is generated 32µs later.

Soft Reset Generation

A soft reset that doesn’t cycle the supply voltage can begenerated externally using Pin 11 (FB) as shown in Figure9. For a 5V supply the FB pin is left floating to set theinternal supply monitor trip voltage to 4.65V. However, ifthe FB pin is pulled to ground for more than 32µs via a pushbutton or open-collector logic gate, the internal trip pointwill go to 5.88V and the RESET pin will pull low. RESET willremain low for 200ms after the FB pin is released. TheRESET signal will also be pulled low when the voltage atthe VOUTLO pin dips below 4.65V for more than 32µs.When using a 3.3V supply, a 1k resistor must be con-nected from the FB pin to VCCLO to set the internal trip pointto 2.90V.

sense resistor is greater than 50mV for more than 20µs.When the circuit breaker trips, both N-channel MOSFETsare quickly turned off, FAULT and PWRGD go low andRESET is pulled low 32µs later. FAULT can be connectedto a LED or a logic signal back to the host to indicate a faultyboard. The chip will remain in the tripped state until apower-on reset is generated, or the power on VCCHI andVCCLO is cycled. If the circuit breaker feature is not used,short VCCLO to SETLO and VCCHI to SETHI.

If more than 20µs of response time is needed to rejectsupply noise, an external resistor and capacitor can beadded to the sense circuit as shown in Figure 10.

When a short circuit occurs on the board, it is possible todraw enough current to cause the backplane supplyvoltage to collapse. If the input supply voltage collapses toa low enough voltage and the LTC1421 gate drive circuitryis unable to shut off the N-channel pass transistors, thesystem might freeze up in a permanent short condition.

To prevent this from occurring, the gate discharge cir-cuitry inside the LTC1421 is powered from AUXVCC,which is in turn powered from VCCLO through an internalSchottky diode and current limiting resistor (Figure 11).

When VCCLO collapses, there is enough energy stored onthe 1µF capacitor connected to AUXVCC to keep the gatedischarge circuitry alive long enough to fully turn off theexternal N-channels.

Power N-Channel Selection

The RDS(ON) of the external pass transistor must be lowenough so that the voltage drop across it is about 200mVor less at full current. If the RDS(ON) is too high, the voltagedrop across the transistor might cause the output voltageto trip the reset circuit.

Data Bus

When a board is inserted or removed from the host, caremust be given to prevent the system data bus from beingcorrupted when the data pins make or break contact. Oneproblem is that the fully discharged input or output capaci-tance of the logic gates on the board will draw an inrushcurrent when the data bus pins first make contact. Theinrush current can temporarily corrupt the data bus, butusually will not cause long term damage. The problem canbe minimized by insuring the input or output data buscapacitance is kept as small as possible.

The second, and more serious problem involves thediodes to VCC at the input and output of most logic families(Figure 12).

With the board initially unpowered, the VCC input to thelogic gate is at ground potential. When the data bus pinsmake contact, the bus line is clamped to ground throughthe input diode D1 to VCC. Large amounts of current canflow through the diode and cause the logic gate to latch upand destroy itself when the power is finally applied. This

Board Insertion Timing

When the board is inserted, GND pin makes contact first,followed by VCCHI and VCCLO (Figure 14, time point 1).DISABLE is immediately pulled high, so the data busswitch is disabled. At the same time CON1 and CON2 makecontact and are shorted to ground on the host side (timepoint 3). Since most boards need to be rocked back andforth to get them in place, there is a period of time whenonly one side of the connector is making contact. CON1and CON2 should be located at opposite ends of theconnector.

TheQuickSwitch bus switch contains an N-channel placed inseries with the data bus. The switch is turned off when theboard is inserted and then enabled after the power isstable. The switch inputs and outputs do not have aparasitic diode back to VCC and have very low capacitance.

When CON1 and CON2 are both forced to ground for morethan 20ms, the LTC1421 assumes that the board is fullyconnected to the host and power-up can begin. WhenVCCLO and VCCHI exceed the 2.45V undervoltage lockoutthreshold, the 20µA current reference is connected fromRAMP to GND, the charge pumps are turned on and CPONis forced high (time point 4). VOUTHI and VOUTLO begin toramp up. When VOUTLO exceeds the reset threshold volt-age, PWRGD will immediately be forced high (time point5). After a 200ms delay, RESET will be pulled high andDISABLE will be pulled low, enabling the data bus (timepoint 6).

Ground Sense Comparator

When POR is pulled low for more than 20ms, GATELO andGATEHI are pulled to ground and VOUTLO and VOUTHI willbe discharged. If POR is pulled back high while VOUTLOand VOUTHI are still ramping down, the discharge willcontinue. When they drop below the VTRIP point, a power-

up sequence will begin automatically. The trip point poten-tial for LTC1421 is set at 0.1V and 2.5V for LTC1421-2.5.

In applications, where either VOUTLO or VOUTHI might beforced above 100mV before power-up, the LTC1421-2.5should be used. This could occur when leakage throughthe body diode of the logic chips keeps VOUTLO high or inthe case where logic lines are precharged.

In other applications, where outputs need to drop to nearground potential before ramping up again to ensure properinitial state for the logic chips, the LTC1421 should beused.

The POR input is used to completely cycle the powersupplies on the board or to reset the electronic circuitbreaker feature. The POR pin can be connected to agrounded push button, toggle switch or a logic signalfrom the host. When POR is pulled low for more than20ms, a power-on reset sequence begins (Figure 15,

LTC1421/LTC1421-2.5

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

WU UU

Figure 23 shows how to use the LTC1421 with a 5V supplyand an LTC1430CS8 synchronous step-down switchingregulator to generate 3.3V output at up to 10A for micro-processors. Resistors R4, R8 and R9 set the turn-onvoltage at 4.8V and the turn-off at 4.25V. Pushbuttonswitch S1 provides users a way to reset the output whileS2 is used to soft-reset the microprocessor only.

Figure 24 shows how to use the LTC1421 with a 5V supplyand a –48V supply that is used to generate a ±12V supplyusing a supply module. Resistors R3 and R4 are used tomonitor the input voltage to the supply module. Themodule is prevented from turning on via the optoisolatoruntil the input voltage reaches –36V. Zener diode D2prevents the CPON pin of the LTC1421 from being dam-aged by excessive voltage.

Figure 25 shows how to use the LTC1421 to do overvolt-age protection. Resistors R3 and R4 set the trip point at7V. When the input supply voltage rises above 7V, Q2 isturned on and Q1 turned off while Q3 helps to dischargethe output voltage.

Figure 26 shows how to use the LTC1421 to control boththe power-up and power-down sequence of the outputs.The 5V output would be powered up first followed by the3V output. At power-down sequence, the 3V output wouldgo down first followed by the 5V supply.

Figure 27 shows how to use the LTC1421 to switch 3.3V,5V, 12V and –12V supplies for PCI application. The ramp-up rate for 3.3V, 5V and 12V is determined by the rampcapacitor C2 while the –12V supply is controlled by R7 andC3. The internal comparator is being used to do theovercurrent protection for Q4 with the trip point set byresistors R6 and R8. The –12V supply does not haveovercurrent protection. R10 is used to set the power goodsignal trip point at 10V. When the 12V output rises above10V, the PCI controller gets a power good signal followedby RESET after 200ms.

module. The ground pin for the LTC1421 is connected to–48V; Zener diode D1 and resistor R1 provide the positivesupply for the chip. Bypass capacitor C4 is protectedagainst inrush current by P-channel Q1. When the boardis inserted into the backplane, transistor Q1 is turned offby resistor R2. When the connection sense pins, CON1and CON2 have been connected to –48V for more than20ms, CPON pulls high turning on Q2 and the gate of Q1starts to pull low with a time constant determined by R2,R3 and C3. At the same time, the voltage at the input to thepower module starts to ramp up. When the voltage acrossthe inputs to the power module reaches the comparatortrip level set by R5 and R6, in this case –32V, thecomparator output pulls high and turns on the 5V supply.

A cheaper solution is shown in Figure 20 using theLT®1170HV switcher. Again P-channel transistor Q1 pro-tects the bypass capacitors against inrush current andresistors R5 and R6 set the comparator trip voltage. TheLT1170HV is turned on via the VC pin. Resistors R11, R14and transistor Q4 provide a monitoring path for the RESETsignal which is level shifted up to 5V through an optoiso-lator.

The P-channel power FET is being replaced by anN-channel FET in Figure 21 for the –48V application.Again, Zener Diode D1 and resistor R1 provide the positivesupply for the chip. Capacitor C1 is to insure Q1 stays offwhen the board is being hot inserted into the backplane.The resistor divider R2 and R3, along with the internalcomparator, perform the undervoltage lock out function.Q1 would only be turned on when the input supply voltageis lower than –42V. The power module would then beturned on by the optoisolator, 4N25, when the module’sinput voltage reaches 47V.

Figure 22 shows how to use the LTC1421 with a 24Vsupply and a LT1074CT step-down switcher. Resistors R5and R6 set the turn-on threshold to 22V. All of thesupervisory signals can be used without level shifting.
