DESCRIPTION
The TPS2359 dual-slot hot-plug controllers perform
all necessary power interface functions for two
AdvancedMC™ (Advanced Mezzanine Card)
modules.
Two fully integrated 3.3-V channels provide inrush
control, over-current protection, and FET ORing. Two
12-V channels provide the same functions using
external FETs and sense resistors. The 3.3-V current
limits are factory set to AdvancedMC™ compliant
levels and the 12-V current limits are programmed
using external sense resistors. The accurate current
sense comparators of the TPS2359 satisfy the narrow
ATCA™ AdvancedMC™ current limit requirements.

DETAILED PIN DESCRIPTION
A0, A1, A2 These three pins select one of 27 unique I2C addresses for address of the TPS2359. Each pin may
be tied to ground, tied to the VINT pin, or left open. See TPS2359 I2C Interface section for details.
AGND Ground pin for analog circuitry inside the TPS2359.
BLKx Gate drive pin for the 12x channel BLK FET. This pin sources 30 µ A to turn the FET on. An internal clamp
prevents this pin from rising more than 14.5 V above OUT12x. Setting the ORENx bit low holds the BLKx pin
low.
EN3x Active-high enable input. Pulling this pin low turns off channel 3x by pulling the gate of the internal pass
FET to GND. An internal 200-k Ω resistor pulls this pin up to VINTwhen disconnected.
GNDx Ground pin for power circuitry associated with the 12x channel. These pins should connect to a ground
plane shared with the AGND pin.
IN12x Supply pin for channel 12x internal circuitry.
IN3x Supply pin for channel 3x internal pass FET.
IRPT Open drain output that pulls low when internal circuitry sets any of the eight status bits in Register 7.
Reading Register 7 restores IRPT to its high-Z state.
OUT12x Senses the output voltage of the channel 12x path.
OUT3x Output of the channel 3x internal pass FET.
PASSx Gate drive pin for the 12x channel PASS FET. This pin sources 30 µ A to turn the FET on. An internal
clamps prevents this pin from rising more than 14.5 V above IN12x.
SCL Serial clock input for the I2C interface. For details of the SCL line, see TPS2359 I2C Interface section.
SDA Bidirectional I2C data line. For details of the SDA line, see TPS2359 I2C Interface section for details.
SENMx Senses the voltage on the low side of the channel 12x current sense resistor.
SENPx Senses the voltage on the high side of the channel 12x current sense resistor.
SETx A resistor connected from this pin to SENPx sets the current limit level in conjunction with the current
sense resistor and the resistor connected to the SUM12x pin, as described in 12-V thresholds – setting current
limit and fast over current trip section.
SUMx A resistor connected from this pin to ground forms part of the channel x current limit. As the current
delivered to the load increases, so does the voltage on this pin. When the voltage on this pin reaches a threshold
(by default 675 mV), the current limit amplifier acts to prevent the current from further increasing.
VDD3x Supply pin for channel3x internal circuitry.
VINT This pin connects to the internal 2.35-V rail. A 0.1- µ F capacitor must be connected from this pin to ground.
One can connect the A0 – A2 pins to this supply to pull them high, but no other external circuitry should connect to
VINT.

REFERENCE INFORMATION
The TPS2359 has been designed to simplify compliance with the PICMG-AMC.R2.0 and PICMG-MTCA.0
specifications. These specifications were developed by the PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group
(PICMG). These two specifications are derivations of the PICMG-ATCA (Advanced Telecommunication
Computing Architecture) specification originally released in December, 2002.
PICMG-AMC Highlights
• AMC - Advanced Mezzanine Cards
• Designed to Plug into ATCA Carrier Boards
• AdvancedMC™ Focuses on Low Cost
• 1 to 8 AdvancedMC™ per ATCA Carrier Board
• 3.3-V Management Power – Maximum Current Draw of 150 mA
• 12-V Payload Power – Converted to Required Voltages on AMC
• Maximum 80-W Dissipation per AdvancedMC™
• Hotswap and Current Limiting Must Be Present on Carrier Board
• For Details, see www.picmg.org/v2internal/AdvancedMC.htm
PICMG-MTCA Highlights
• MTCA – MicroTelecommunications Computing Architecture
• Architecture for Using AMCs Without an ATCA Carrier Board
• Up to 12 AMCs per System, Plus Two MCHs, Plus Two CUs
• Focuses on Low Cost
• All functions of ATCA Carrier Board Must Be Provided
• MicroTCA is Also Known as MTCA, mTCA, or uTCA For Details, see
www.picmg.org/v2internal/microTCA.htm
Control and Status Registers
Ten 8 bit registers are used to control and read the status of the TPS2359. Registers 0 and 1 control the 12A
channel and register 2 controls the 3A channel. Similarly, registers 3 and 4 control the 12B channel and register
5 controls the 3B channel. Register 6 contains eight general configuration bits. Read-only registers 7, 8, and 9
report back system status to the I2C controller. All ten registers use the I2C protocol and are organized as
follows:
Table 1. Top Level Register Functions
REG R/W SLOT VOLTAGE FUNCTION
0 R/W A 12 Set current limit, power good threshold, and OR functions of 12A.
1 R/W A 12 Set fault time, enable, and bleed down functions of 12A.
2 R/W A 3.3 Set fault time, enable, and bleed down functions of 3A.
3 R/W B 12 Set current limit, power good threshold, and OR functions of 12B.
4 R/W B 12 Set fault time, enable, and bleed down functions of 12B.
5 R/W B 3.3 Set fault time, enable, and bleed down functions of 3B.
6 R/W A, B 3.3, 12 System configuration controls.
7 R A, B 3.3, 12 Fault and PG outputs for 3A, 12A, 3B, 12B – these bits set IRPT.
8 R A, B 12 Over current and fast trip latches for 3A, 12A, 3B, 12B.
9 R A, B 3.3, 12 Channel status indicators for 3A, 12A, 3B, 12B.
