Das I2C MUX 2 Click Board™ ist ein vierfacher bidirektionaler I2C- und SMBus-Umsetzer mit Reset- und Interrupt-Funktionen, der für Anwendungen mit I2C-Slave-Adresskonflikten vorgesehen ist. Es verfügt über einen vierfachen bidirektionalen Umsetzer, der über den I2C-Bus gesteuert wird und als TCA9545A von Texas Instruments bezeichnet wird. Auf dem Click Board sind vier Interrupt-Eingänge (INT3–INT0) vorgesehen, einer für jedes der nachgeschalteten Paare. Ein Interrupt-Ausgang (INT) fungiert als UND der vier Interrupt-Eingänge. Click verfügt über zwei Adressbrücken, sodass bis zu vier TCA9545A-Geräte auf demselben Bus verwendet werden können. Das I2C MUX 2 Click Board™ ermöglicht die Spannungsumsetzung zwischen 1,8-V-, 2,5-V-, 3,3-V- und 5-V-Bussen und unterstützt auch Hot Insertion. Das TCA9546A kann in einem Taktfrequenzbereich von 0 bis 400 kHz arbeiten und ist ideal für die Kommunikation mit zahlreichen Geräten, die die gleiche Slave-Adresse auf demselben Bus verwenden.
Das I2C MUX 2 Click Board™ wird von einer mikroSDK-kompatiblen Bibliothek unterstützt, die Funktionen enthält, die die Softwareentwicklung vereinfachen. Dieses Click Board™ wird als vollständig getestetes Produkt geliefert und ist bereit für den Einsatz auf einem System, das mit der mikroBUS™-Buchse ausgestattet ist.
How Does The I2C MUX 2 Click Board™ Work?
The I2C MUX 2 Click Board™ uses the TCA9545A, a 4-channel, bidirectional translating I2C switch. The master SCL/SDA signal pair is directed to four channels of slave devices, SC0/SD0-SC3/SD3. Any individual downstream channel can be selected as well as any combination of the four channels. The TCA9545A also supports interrupt signals in order for the master to detect an interrupt on the INT output terminal that can result from any of the slave devices connected to the INT3-INT0 input terminals. The device offers an active-low RESET input which resets the state machine and allows the TCA9545A to recover should one of the downstream I2C buses get stuck in a low state. The state machine of the device can also be reset by cycling the power supply, VCC, also known as a power-on reset (POR). Both the RESET function and a POR will cause all channels to be deselected.
The connections of the I2C data path are controlled by the same I2C master device that is switched to communicate with multiple I2C slaves. The I2C slave address can be configured by soldering SMD jumpers labelled as ADDR SEL to set the least significant bit (LSB). After the successful acknowledgment of the slave address, a single 8-bit control register is written to or read from to determine the selected channels and state of the interrupts. The TCA9545A may also be used for voltage translation, allowing the use of different bus voltages on each SCn/SDn pair such that 1.8-V, 2.5-V, or 3.3-V parts can communicate with 5-V parts. This is achieved by using external pull-up resistors to pull the bus up to the desired voltage for the master and each slave channel.
One or several SCn/SDn downstream pairs, or channels, are selected by the contents of the control register. After the TCA9545A has been addressed, the control register is written. The four LSBs of the control byte are used to determine which channel or channels are to be selected. When a channel is selected, it becomes active after a stop condition has been placed on the I2C bus. This ensures that all SCn/SDn lines are in a high state when the channel is made active so that no false conditions are generated at the time of connection. A stop condition must occur always right after the acknowledge cycle.
The TCA9545A provides four interrupt inputs (one for each channel) and one open-drain interrupt output. When an interrupt is generated by any device, it is detected by the TCA9545A and the interrupt output is driven low. The channel does not need to be active for the detection of the interrupt. A bit also is set in the control register. Bits 4–7 of the control register correspond to channels 0–3 of the TCA9545A, respectively. Therefore, if an interrupt is generated by any device connected to channel 1, the state of the interrupt inputs is loaded into the control register when a read is accomplished. Likewise, an interrupt on any device connected to channel 0 would cause bit 4 of the control register to be set on the read. The master then can address the TCA9545A and read the contents of the control register to determine which channel contains the device generating the interrupt. The master then can reconfigure the TCA9545A to select this channel and locate the device generating the interrupt and clear it. It should be noted that more than one device can provide an interrupt on a channel, so it is up to the master to ensure that all devices on a channel are interrogated for an interrupt. The interrupt inputs can be used as general-purpose inputs if the interrupt function is not required. If unused, interrupt input(s) must be connected to VCC.
The I2C MUX 2 Click Board™ can be supplied and interfaced with both 3.3V and 5V without the need for any external components. The onboard SMD jumper labelled as VCC SEL allows voltage selection for interfacing with both 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers.
