General description

The PCA9540B is a 1-of-2 bi-directional translating multiplexer, controlled via the I2C-bus. The SCL/SDA upstream pair fans out to two SCx/SDx downstream pairs, or channels. Only one SCx/SDx channel is selected at a time, determined by the contents of the programmable control register.

A power-on reset function puts the registers in their default state and initializes the I2C state machine with no channels selected.

The pass gates of the multiplexer are constructed such that the VDD pin can be used to limit the maximum high voltage which will be passed by the PCA9540B. This allows the use of different bus voltages on each SCx/SDx pair, so that 1.8 V, 2.5, or 3.3 V parts can communicate with 5 V parts without any additional protection. External pull-up resistors can pull the bus up to the desired voltage level for this channel. All I/O pins are 5 V tolerant.

The PCA9540B has replaced the PCA9540 and all designs must migrate to the PCA9540B. PCA9540B samples can be requested from www.philipslogic.com/products/I2Cmuxes/.
