PCA9546ABS,118 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The PCA9546ABS,118 from NXP Semiconductors is a quad bidirectional translating switch designed for I2C-bus applications. It allows for the fan-out of an upstream I2C-bus pair to four downstream pairs, enabling flexible channel selection through a programmable control register.

 

This switch supports voltage level translation between different bus voltages, such as 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V parts, without additional protection. The device features an active LOW reset input for recovery from bus issues and supports hot insertion. Its I/O pins are 5 V tolerant, and it operates with a supply voltage range of 2.3 V to 5.5 V.

 

The PCA9546ABS,118 is available in a 16-HVQFN (4x4) package and is designed for surface mount applications. It is compatible with SMBus standards and operates at clock frequencies up to 400 kHz. ESD protection exceeds 2000 V HBM and 1000 V CDM, with latch-up testing exceeding 100 mA per JESD78.
