into signals that are transmitted across an isolation barrier
to another LTC4310. The receiving LTC4310 decodes the
transmission and drives its l
2
C bus to the appropriate logic
state. The isolation barrier can be bridged by an inexpensive
Ethernet, or other transformer, to achieve communications
across voltage differences reaching thousands of volts, or
it can be bridged by capacitors for lower voltage isolation.
The LTC4310-1 is intended for use in 100kHz I
2
C systems.
The LTC4310-2 is intended for 400kHz I
2
C systems.
Rise time accelerators provide strong pull-up currents on
SCL and SDA rising edges to meet rise time specifications
for heavily loaded systems. Data and clock Hot Swap™
circuitry prevent data corruption when a card is inserted
into or removed from a live bus. When a bus is stuck low
for 37ms, the LTC4310 turns off its pull-down devices
and generates up to sixteen clocks and a STOP bit in an
attempt to free the bus. Driving EN low sets the LTC4310
in a very low current shutdown mode to conserve power.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2.
Guaranteed by design, not tested in production.
Note 3.
SDA, SCL high-to-low propagation delay is measured from the
beginning of a new received message telling the LTC4310 to drive its SDA,
SCL pins from high to low, to when the SDA, SCL lines have fallen below
0.5 • V
CC
. It includes approximately 87ns required for an LTC4310 to
receive a message on the RXP and RXN pins, plus the time the LTC4310
requires to process the message and pass the low to the data and clock
buffers, plus the time required by the buffers to drive their bus pins below
0.5 • V
CC
.
Note 4.
All currents into pins are positive, all voltages are referenced to
GND unless otherwise specified.
Note 5.
Internal control circuitry prevents the rise time accelerators from
activating until the rising edge rate control circuitry is off.
