Product Summary

The PCA9544 is a 1-of-4 bi-directional translating multiplexer, controlled via the I2C bus. The SCL/SDA upstream pair fans out to four 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.

Parametrics

PCA9544 absolute maximum ratings: (1)VDD DC supply voltage: –0.5 to +7.0 V; (2)VI DC input voltage: –0.5 to +7.0 V; (3)II DC input current: ±20 mA; (4)IO DC output current: ±25 mA; (5)IDD Supply current: ±100 mA; (6)ISS Supply current: ±100 mA; (7)Ptot total power dissipation: 400 mW; (8)Tstg Storage temperature range: –60 to +150 °C; (9)Tamb Operating ambient temperature: 0 to +70 °C.

Features

PCA9544 features: (1)1-of-4 bi-directional translating multiplexer; (2)Channel selection via I2C bus; (3)Operating supply voltage 2.5 to 3.6 V; (4)Operating temperature range 0°C to 70°C; (5)Power-up with all multiplexer channels deselected; (6)3 address pins, allowing up to 8 devices on the I2C bus; (7)Low on resistance.
