DESCRIPTION
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. Four interrupt inputs, one for each of the SCx/SDx downstream pair, are provided. One interrupt output, which acts as an AND of the four interrupt inputs, is provided. All I/O pins are 5 V tolerant. 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 PCA9544. This allows the use of different bus...
