LTC4300-1 Overview
The LTC®4300 series hot swappable 2-wire bus buffers allow I/O card insertion into a live backplane without corruption of the data and clock busses. When the connection is made, the LTC4300-1/LTC4300-2 provide bidirectional buffering, keeping the backplane and card capacitances isolated. Rise time accelerator circuitry allows the use of weaker DC pull-up currents while still meeting rise time requirements.
