General description

The PCA9545A is a quad bidirectional translating switch controlled via the I2C-bus. The

SCL/SDA upstream pair fans out to four downstream pairs, or channels. Any individual

SCx/SDx channel or combination of channels can be selected, determined by the

contents of the programmable control register. Four interrupt inputs, INT0 to INT3, one

for each of the downstream pairs, are provided. One interrupt output, INT, acts as an

AND of the four interrupt inputs.

An active LOW reset input allows the PCA9545A to recover from a situation where one

of the downstream I2C-buses is stuck in a LOW state. Pulling the RESET pin LOW resets

the I2C-bus state machine and causes all the channels to be deselected as does the

internal power-on reset function.

The pass gates of the switches are constructed such that the VDD pin can be used to limit

the maximum high voltage which is passed by the PCA9545A. This allows the use of

different bus voltages on each pair, so that 1.8 V or 2.5 V or 3.3 V parts can communicate

with 5 V parts without any additional protection. External pull-up resistors pull the bus up

to the desired voltage level for each channel. All I/O pins are 5 V tolerant.
